A liquidity score representative of a likelihood of successfully completing a transaction is determined and utilized to arrange information during the electronic communication session.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying information regarding calls to a plurality of PSAPs is provided herein. During operation, an interface will display information as to whether a PSAP is receiving calls it normally would not be receiving, information as to whether or not a PSAP is not working correctly, and information on a status of any re-routed calls to a PSAP. In an alternate embodiment of the present invention, a reason for a PSAP call re-route is also provided.

Abstract: Improved techniques of reducing latency in UL positioning include generating a priority indication by the LMF for all UE requiring UL positioning. For example, an LMF can generate a priority list identifying UEs within a network that may be considered by a serving network node (gNB) for positioning prioritization. In some implementations, the serving gNB indicates that prioritizing all of the identified UEs would require more network resources than are available. In such a case, the LMF obtains latency measurement values for TRPs in the network. Based on the latency measurement values obtained, the LMF performs a configuration operation on at least one of the TRPs to reduce the UL positioning latency to an acceptable value.

Abstract: A refrigerator appliance assembly includes a cabinet having at least one chamber for receipt of an item, a door permitting access to the at least one chamber, a temperature port within the at least one chamber, and a temperature probe communicatively coupled with the temperature port.

Abstract: To configure a set of user devices, which comprises one or more user devices, to monitor a subset of beams, at least one past beam sequence indicating one or more beams, which served the set is determined, and inputted to a trained model which outputs a probability distribution. Then as many beams as is a number of beams determined for the set to monitor is selected from the probability distribution according to a first criteria, and the set of user devices is configured to monitor and report beams in the beam group. Past beam sequences are also used in training. From the past sequences, set-specifically, past beams that served a set within a first time interval are determined to be used as training data, and future beams that served the set within a second time interval following the first time interval are determined to be used as validation data.
