Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining an operational state of an industrial plant includes acquiring alarms raised within the plant and adding them to a pool of important alarms, determining whether a physical state of the plant indicated by a first alarm causes a second alarm or meets a predetermined state-dependent condition and, if so, moving the first alarm to a pool of informative alarms; and determining the operational state of the plant and/or a corrective action for improving this operational state based on the alarms in the pool of important alarms.

Abstract: Data is transmitted between an application server and at least one internet-of-things (IoT) communication device using a mobile communication network. A method for the data transmission includes: the at least one IoT communication device attaching to the mobile communication network via transmitting at least a first portion of first communication data between the at least one IoT communication device and the IoT gateway entity; and the at least one IoT communication device transmitting payload data to the application server via transmitting at least a second portion of the first communication data between the at least one IoT communication device and the IoT gateway entity, and at least part of the second communication data between the IoT gateway entity and the application server.

Abstract: A method for configuring network nodes of a telecommunications network includes configuring a remote network node of a plurality of remote network nodes based on a first set of configuration parameters; authenticating the remote network node based on an encryption information obtained from an encryption information infrastructure; configuring a firewall entity of a plurality of firewall entities based on a second set of configuration parameters, wherein the configuration of the firewall entity is initiated by the remote network node based on an initial configuration message being sent directly or indirectly from the remote network node to the firewall entity; and authenticating the configuration of the firewall entity based on the encryption information of the remote network node, the encryption information being obtained by the firewall entity directly or indirectly from the remote network node with the initial configuration message.

Abstract: A method for operating a remote-controlled network element in a telecommunication network includes: configuring the network element with a new configuration; determining whether a network connection failure between the network element and a network management system of the telecommunication network exists after the configuration; and in response to detecting a network connection failure, setting the network element automatically to a standard configuration and establishing a network connection between the network element and the network management system using the standard configuration. Setting the network element automatically to a standard configuration and establishing the network connection includes: loading a previous IPSec certificate in case that the previous Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) certificate has been at least partly replaced during the configuration; and establishing the network connection between the network element and the network management system using the previous IPSec certificate.

Abstract: A method for enhanced radio resource management in a public land mobile network includes: generating, by a mobility detecting sensor module of a user equipment, a previous motion information and a current motion information; and transmitting a mobility status update information, indicative of the current motion information, to the public land mobile network. The transmitting is based on a discrepancy between the current motion information and the previous motion information exceeding a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A device (10) for introducing goods to be packed (1, 3) into a packaging container (5) comprises transport devices (11, 15) for the packaging container (5) and the goods to be packed (1, 3). The goods to be packed (1, 3) are compressed by means of pressure elements (25), in order to be introduced into the packaging container (5). The pressure element (25) is guided on a carrier element (32) in a displaceable manner, in order to avoid damage caused by the occurrence of an excess load. Due to the mobility on the carrier element (32), only very small masses are displaced in the event of an excess load, such that the excess load protection device reacts in a reliable manner, and the device (10) has a relatively simple construction.
