Patent number: 11516261Abstract: A network operator can partition network elements, including elements of an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) or Policy and Charging Rules Functions (PCRFs) into groups reserved for specific types of subscribers. When a user equipment (UE) registers with an IMS, elements of the IMS can contact a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) to determine a subscriber type associated with the UE. Based on the UE's subscriber type, an IMS element can determine an application server or other IMS element to contact about the UE based on identifying application servers or IMS elements that are also associated with the same subscriber type as the UE. Similarly, an IMS element can determine a PCRF to contact about the UE based on identifying a PCRF that is associated with the same subscriber type as the UE.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2019Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Mohammed Al-Mehdar, Saqib Badar, Shujaur Mufti, Khurram Ahmad Mirza, Kalyan Kalepu

Patent number: 11509745Abstract: Systems and techniques for efficient remote function execution in an information centric network (ICN) are described herein. For example, a requestor node may transmit an admission probe interest packet. Here, the admission probe interest packet includes a name that includes a function. The admission probe interest packet also includes a metric of a parameter of the function. In response, the requestor node may receive a manifest data packet. The manifest includes a metric of function execution at a node that created the manifest data packet. The manifest also includes a name of an implementation of the function. The requestor node may then determine that the metric of function execution meets a threshold and transmit an interest packet that includes the name of the implementation of the function.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2019Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: S.

Patent number: 11489731Abstract: In a computing environment, a set of executing processes each having associated resources are provided. Aggregate resources for the computing environment include multiple different types of resources. A utilization level for each of the resources within the computing environment is evaluated to determine an unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below a utilization threshold. The utilization threshold is resource-dependent. An indication of at least a portion of unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below the utilization threshold is gathered. The unconsumed portion for each of the resources below the utilization threshold is exposed for consumption by other executing processes.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2016Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: James E.

Patent number: 11463533Abstract: Actions determined with respect to primary content displayed on a computing device can be used to select and/or filter supplemental content to be displayed on that computing device, enabling near real time filtering decisions to be made that are device- or user-specific. Actions can relate to gaze positions, voice discussions, object selection, and the like. If an object of interest can be determined based on the actions, supplemental content such as chat messages can be selected that relate to the object. For example, if it is determined that the gaze position for a display of primary content corresponds to coordinates where a representation of a pair of shoes is displayed, messages relating to those shoes may be selected for display where messages for other topics might not be selected in order to manage the number of messages displayed on the computing device.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2016Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Brian Ashley Garber
