  • Patent number: 11889493
    Abstract: A method and a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) are disclosed. The WTRU comprises a transceiver and a processor. The WTRU receives a radio resource control (RRC) message, wherein the RRC message indicates a resource block, the resource block including a plurality of locations indicating time-frequency orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) resource assignments for a plurality of WTRUs including the WTRU. The WTRU analyzes assignment messages for a subset of the plurality of locations within the indicated resource block, and transmits an uplink signal based on one or more of the analyzed assignment messages that are for the WTRU.

  • Patent number: 11885632
    Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to pre-emptively initializing an automated assistant in a vehicle according to certain indications, in order to reduce latency while also seeking to preserve computational resources. In some implementations, data for effectuating one or more features of an automated assistant can be loaded into memory of a computing device based on vehicle interaction data. For example, the vehicle interaction data can characterize instances in which the user, from within their vehicle, invoked the automated assistant within a threshold period of time of an application completing an operation. Based on the vehicle interaction data, subsequent instances of the operation being completed while the user is in the vehicle can cause data to be loaded into memory in order to pre-emptively prepare the automated assistant to be utilized by the user.

  • Patent number: 11886850
    Abstract: Implementations are described herein for building and/or applying a library of transformation templates to automate migration of source code. In various implementations, pre-migration and post-migration versions of source code that exist prior to and after migration of the source code may be analyzed. Based on the analysis, one or more transformations made to the pre-migration version of the source code to yield the post-migration version of the source code may be identified. A library of transformation templates that are applicable subsequently to automate migration of new source code may be built. In some implementations, for one or more of the transformations, a plurality of candidate transformation templates may be generated with different permutations of tokens being replaced with placeholders. One of the plurality of candidate transformation templates may be selected for inclusion in the library based on one or more criteria.

  • Patent number: 11886913
    Abstract: Data from data sources may be processed at an edge device. The edge device may generate a local processing result, filter the data, and/or prioritize the data. Accordingly, data is transmitted from the edge device to the data platform, where it may be processed further. For example, a local processing result may be processed at the data platform, such that processing is performed without all of the data source data. In examples, at least a part of such data may remain at an edge device. The edge device may maintain a manifest of data stored by the edge device. The data platform may generate an aggregated manifest using manifests from associated edge devices, such that it may be determined where data is stored. As a result, the data platform may redirect requests to an associated edge device when it is determined that requested data is remote from the data platform.
