Spam related and biased contexts and search results are identified using offline and query time processing stages, and the context files from vertical content providers associated with such spam and biased context and results are excluded from processing on direct user queries.

An apparatus for generating content program recommendations comprises a meta-data processor (209) which provides characterising data for a plurality of content programs. A context processor (215) provides first context data for a user and a time window processor (213) determines a content consumption time window for the user in response to the first context data. The content consumption time window represents an estimated time window available to the user for consuming content. A recommendation unit (207) then generates a content program recommendation comprising in response to the content consumption time window and the characterising data.

Described embodiments provide a method of transferring data from host devices to a media controller. The media controller generates a transfer context for each write request received from a host device. Receive-data threads corresponding to data transfer contexts for each transfer context are generated, each receive-data thread corresponding to a data transfer between a host device and the media controller. Buffer threads corresponding to data transfer contexts for each transfer context are generated, each buffer thread corresponding to a data transfer between the receive data path and a buffer subsystem.

In one benchmark test for YUV 4:2:0 video, the number of context models were reduced from 120 for the proposed entropy encoding of JCTVC-D262 test model HM 2.0, versus 82 context models required for CRLT coding.

A content presentation apparatus comprises a receiver receiving content items, such as individual adverts. A filter processor filters the content items in response to a user profile thereby generating a subset of content items associated with the user. The subset of content items may e.g. be stored in a data storage. The content presentation apparatus furthermore comprises a receiver receiving a presentation content stream.
