First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An event notification method performed by a service entity, comprising:
receiving an event subscription request from a subscriber, the event subscription request including at least one notified party and a first event notification rule;
determining whether the first event notification rule is satisfied, and in the case where the first event notification rule is satisfied, sending a first event notification to the at least one notified party;
sending a second event notification for canceling the first event notification to at least a part of the at least one notified party, in response to a request from one of the at least one notified party.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein sending a first event notification to the at least one notified party comprises:
determining whether the first event notification rule is satisfied, and in the case where the first event notification rule is satisfied, sending the first event notification to each notified party of the at least one notified party.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein sending a second event notification to at least a part of the at least one notified party comprises:
determining whether a second event notification rule is satisfied, and in the case where the second event notification rule is satisfied, sending the second event notification to at least a part of the at least one notified party.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein determining whether a second event notification rule is satisfied comprises:
receiving a request from a requesting party;
determining whether the second event notification rule is satisfied based on the request.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein determining whether a second event notification rule is satisfied comprises:
determining, at a time point determined by a second event notification interval, whether the second event notification rule is satisfied.

6. The method of claim 4 , further comprising defining a first event notification resource and a second event notification resource associated with the first event notification resource, wherein the first event notification resource includes:
a first event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the first event notification; and
a first event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party,
the second event notification resource includes:
an event notification identifier attribute for associating the second event notification resource with the first event notification resource;
a second event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the second event notification;
a second event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the second event notification resource further includes:
a second event notification interval attribute for setting a time interval for determining whether the second event notification rule is satisfied.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the event subscription request includes a plurality of notified parties, and sending a second event notification to at least a part of the plurality of notified parties comprises:
receiving an event cancel request from one notified party of the plurality of notified parties;
sending, based on the event cancel request, the second event notification to at least a part of the plurality of notified parties.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising defining a first event notification resource and a cancellation virtual resource associated with the first event notification resource, the cancellation virtual resource being for sending, based on the event cancel request, a second event notification to at least a part of the plurality of notified parties, wherein the first event notification resource includes:
a first event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the first event notification; and
a first event notification list attribute for storing address information of the plurality of notified parties.

10. The method of claim 4 , further comprising defining a first subscription resource and a second subscription resource associated with the first subscription resource, wherein the first subscription resource includes:
a first event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the first event notification; and
a first event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party,
the second event notification resource includes:
an event notification identifier attribute for associating the second event notification resource with the first event notification resource;
a second event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the second event notification;
a second event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the event subscription request is for requesting to receive update data from an application entity, the method further comprises:
determining, based on the update data, whether the first event notification rule is satisfied.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein notification content of the second event notification is opposite to notification content of the first event notification.

13. The method of claim 3 , wherein the second event notification rule is a rule for canceling the first event notification.

14. The method of claim 5 , further comprising defining a first event notification resource and a second event notification resource associated with the first event notification resource, wherein the first event notification resource includes:
a first event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the first event notification; and
a first event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party,
the second event notification resource includes:
an event notification identifier attribute for associating the second event notification resource with the first event notification resource;
a second event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the second event notification;
a second event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party.

15. The method of claim 5 , further comprising defining a first subscription resource and a second subscription resource associated with the first subscription resource, wherein the first subscription resource includes:
a first event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the first event notification; and
a first event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party,
the second event notification resource includes:
an subscription resource identifier attribute for associating the first subscription resource with the second subscription resource;
a second event notification rule attribute for determining whether to send the second event notification;
a second event notification list attribute for storing address information of the at least one notified party.

16. A server device, comprising a transceiver and a processor, wherein the transceiver is configured to receive an event subscription request from a subscriber, the event subscription request including at least one notified party and a first event notification rule; the processor is configured to determine whether the first event notification rule is satisfied, and in the case where the first event notification r
