  • Patent number: 11429372
    Abstract: An application program updating method, apparatus, system, medium and device. The application program updating method provides a method of debugging a to-be-updated program logic through a development mode of a hot-update supporting client to obtain an updated program logic, then issuing the updated program logic to a back-end, and acquiring update data from the back end through a product mode of the hot-update supporting client. This allows a front-end developer to write and update simply and quickly without an assistance of any back-end developers.

  • Patent number: 11385898
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for task orchestrating, an orchestrator, a device and a readable storage medium. According to the method provided in the present disclosure, task scripts are edited as descriptive language scripts, and data dependency relationships between source tables and target tables in the tasks corresponding to the task scripts are automatically generated according to the descriptive language scripts of the tasks. The execution of the tasks is driven in a data-driven manner according to the data dependency relationships between the source tables and the target tables in the tasks. There is no need for a technical person to manually edit the workflow file. When some tasks change, the data dependency relationships between the source and target tables in the tasks can be automatically updated according to the task scripts, without affecting the orchestration process between tasks.

  • Publication number: 20220086813
    Abstract: A terminal includes: a receiver, which, in operation, receives downlink control information and downlink data; circuitry, which, in operation, determines, based on the downlink control information and an offset, a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource used for transmission of a response signal for the downlink data; and a transmitter, which, in operation, transmits the response signal using the determined PUCCH resource. A first offset is used as the offset when the terminal is configured in a coverage enhancement mode, in which the response signal is allowed to be transmitted repeatedly for one of plural repetition levels in a plurality of subframes, where the first offset is configured for each of the plural repetition levels. The first offset is different from a second offset, which is used when the terminal is not configured in the coverage enhancement mode.

  • Patent number: 11039432
    Abstract: In a control channel resource transmission method, user equipment (UE) obtains a configuration parameter in a candidate control channel set according to a preset protocol and/or higher-layer signaling sent by a base station, where the higher-layer signaling is used to notify the configuration parameter. The UE determines an antenna port according to the obtained configuration parameter, and then receives, through the antenna port, a control channel or a control channel element sent by the base station. The base station determines the antenna port according to the same configuration parameter as that of the user equipment, and sends, by using the antenna port, the control channel or the control channel element to the user equipment.
