An example method, performed by a first wireless node, includes outputting, for transmission, information that indicates at least one of (i) one or more criteria that, when met by a second wireless node, indicate the second wireless node is allowed to request that the first wireless node modify one or more wireless operating parameters, or (ii) one or more options for modifying the wireless operating parameters of the first wireless node, obtaining a first request that requests the first wireless node to modify the wireless operating parameters, and processing the first request based on the information.

Abstract: Aspects presented herein may improve an emergency call establishment procedure by enabling a UE to transmit emergency register messages more efficiently. In one aspect, a UE transmits, to a network entity, a request to set up an ePDN. The UE receives, from the network entity, a response to the request comprising a set of multiple P-CSCF addresses. The UE transmits, to the network entity, a registering message to each of the multiple P-CSCF addresses simultaneously. The UE receives, from the network entity, at least one acceptance message from at least one of the set of multiple P-CSCF addresses in response to the registering message. The UE transmits, to the network entity, an invitation message to a P-CSCF address from which an acceptance message is received to establish an emergency call connection.

Abstract: Current approaches create web based simulated lab type of setups for students/learners in which lab environment is created according to course of student. However, these conventional approaches require student systems to have some basic setup for working on virtual labs. Few available techniques also provide cloud-based virtual labs in which private cloud is created but they use open-source tool for creation. Further, available virtual lab techniques do not provide seamless integration with LMS. Present disclosure provides methods and systems for provisioning virtual lab with learning management system. The system provides virtual desktop that is created on an infrastructure-as-a-service platform. The learner desktop is accessed by a user/learner from respective existing computer system via LMS account. The virtual desktop includes hardware configuration and software packages required to solve one or more problems or perform one or more experiments related to course for which learners have enrolled in LMS.

Abstract: A nozzle for a blow-molding process includes a first sealing portion, a second sealing portion, and a seal disposed around a circumference of the first sealing portion in the form of circular edge. A transition portion is positioned between the first sealing portion and the second sealing portion. The nozzle is configured such that upon engagement of the second sealing portion with the interior of a container preform having a longitudinal axis, the second sealing portion is positioned along the longitudinal axis at a different location than the first sealing portion.

Abstract: A hybrid state for a virtual machine (VM) in a cloud computing system enables a VM to communicate with other VMs that belong to a virtual network (VNET VMs) while maintaining connectivity with other VMs that do not belong to the virtual network (non-VNET VMs). A non-VNET VM can be transitioned to a hybrid VM that operates in a hybrid state. The hybrid VM can be assigned a private virtual IP address (VNET address) for communication with other VNET VMs. The hybrid VM can continue to use a physical IP address to communicate with other non-VNET VMs. In this way, the hybrid VM is able to maintain connectivity with other non-VNET VMs during and after migration to the VNET. A network stack can be configured to process data packets that are destined for non-VNET VMs differently from data packets that are destined for VNET VMs.

Abstract: A virtual network interface controller (NIC) associated with a virtual machine in a cloud computing network is configured to support one or more network containers that encapsulate networking configuration data and policies that are applicable to a specific discrete computing workload to thereby enable the virtual machine to simultaneously belong to multiple virtual networks using the single NIC. The network containers supported by the NIC can be associated with a single tenant to enable additional flexibility such quickly switching between virtual networks and support pre-provisioning of additional computing resources with associated networking policies for rapid deployment. The network containers can also be respectively associated with different tenants so that the single NIC can support multi-tenant services on the same virtual machine.
