Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for centralized radio access network (CRAN) scalability. In one embodiment, a network node includes processing circuitry configured to cause the network node to schedule at least one wireless device according to a radio resource partition, the radio resource partition representing a division of radio resources between at least two schedulers of a same cell, and each radio resource partition of the cell being assigned to a corresponding scheduler of the at least two schedulers; and receive, from at least one scheduler of the at least two schedulers, an indication of an amount of the radio resources that are scheduled by the at least one scheduler. In one embodiment, a network node includes processing circuitry configured to cause the network node to send, to a master scheduler, an indication of an amount of the radio resources that are scheduled by the network node.

Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, a first network node of a first radio access technology, RAT, configured to communicate with a second network node of a second RAT different from the first RAT is provided. The first network node includes processing circuitry configured to: schedule a physical resource block, PRB, in a predetermined frequency carrier range where the scheduling starts from a predefined frequency location in the predetermined frequency carrier range, receive an indication that the PRB has been scheduled by the second network node, and responsive to the received indication, discard the PRB scheduled by the first network node if the PRB is located outside of a first predetermined partition of radio resources allocated to the first network node.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus and a method for managing access to data for a setting. The electronic apparatus includes a server device and at least one client device that is adapted to interact with the server device to access data for a setting. The data is stored in a memory device. The server device includes at least one interface module that is adapted to manage access to data for a specific setting.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a method and a portable communication device (200) for forming a real time output media stream by mixing a first real time media stream with a second media stream. Provision of mixing of media streams provides a number of attractive functions, for instance. This invention concerns how to increase the usage of a mobile VT application and how to be able to handle integrity issues when used in a portable communication device.

Abstract: Resources may be dynamically allocated in a distributed processing portable electronic communication device. The dynamic allocation may include receiving an instruction to process an audio processing task related to audio data; determining whether resources for processing the processing task are available at a first processing unit; performing the audio processing task by the first processing unit when the resources are determined to be available, the audio processing task obtaining processed audio data; and providing the processed audio data synchronously with a global synchronization pulse so that the phase of the audio data is controlled.
