Abstract: Multi-operator handover is disclosed for new radio (NR) shared spectrum (NR-SS) operations. In order to facilitate inter-operator handover operations, a base station, after receipt of a measurement report from a served user equipment (UE) may selectively instruct the UE to search and report an operator identifier (ID) of one or more second operator neighboring cells. In alternative aspects, a UE may store such network information, including operator ID, of all neighboring cells it measures during an idle state and report the network information to the base station when connection is established. The base station may then store the operator IDs in an neighboring operator database. The base station may then provide the operator ID for the neighboring operator to a UE for consideration of handover in future handover operations.

Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, and software to improve distribution of service information in a computing environment. In one implementation, a computing element identifies a modification to a locally maintained service data structure that maintains status information for services of a computing environment. In response to the modification, the computing element may identify a key-value pair and add the key-value pair to a gateway protocol packet. Once added to the packet, the computing element may communicate the packet to a second computing element.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an experimentation framework for a computational environment in a distributed system. A machine-learning model may be created that predicts at least one output produced by the computational environment based on at least one input provided to the computational environment. During an evaluation time period that is subsequent to at least one modification being made to the computational environment, at least one modified output produced by the computational environment may be determined.
