Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for dynamically adjusting a throttling threshold in a multi-tenant virtualized computing environment. System health parameters are collected during a predetermined time interval. A system health status of the multi-tenant virtualized computing environment is determined.

The throttling threshold is applied for further service requests. During a subsequent time interval, an updated system health status of the multi-tenant virtualized computing environment is determined based on system health parameters received during the subsequent time interval. The throttling threshold is updated based on the updated system health status. The updated throttling threshold is applied for further service requests.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a host processor at a user equipment (UE) may packetize data for uplink transmissions from the UE and provide packets to a wireless modem of the UE for uplink transmission. The host processor may provide multiplexing and aggregation headers for the packets that include a prioritization indication, and the wireless modem may order the data packets for transmission based at least in part on the prioritization indication. In some cases, a priority for each packet is indicated in a priority field of a corresponding multiplexing and aggregation header. The wireless modem may transmit the data packets based on the ordering, to provide higher priority packets ahead of lower priority packets to a receiver. Additionally, data packets may be further ordered based on tuple information associated with the data packets.
