Abstract: Various embodiments manage data flow between at least one wireless communication device and at least one application executing at an edge of the wireless communication network. In one embodiment, a first flow regenerator disposed within the network generates a replicated set of data packets. The replicated set of data packets are a copy of a set of data packets being transmitted between an application disposed on a first node at an edge of the network and a wireless communication device. The first flow regenerator sends the replicated set of data packets to a second flow regenerator disposed in the network. The replicated set of data packets are sent to the second flow regenerator through at least a second node disposed between the first flow regenerator and the second flow regenerator. The second node is configured to perform one or more book-keeping operations on the replicated set of data packets.

Abstract: Secure virtualizing of a mobile cellular device uses a cellular communication network having base transceiver station edge node servers. A virtualized-instance host server contains a virtualized instance of an enterprise environment. Base station controllers are in communication with and control the base transceiver stations. A mobile switching center in communication with the base station controllers contains the virtualized-instance host server. A cellular communication device is in communication with an edge node server, and an auxiliary data display entry device is in communication with the cellular communication device such that the virtualized instance of the enterprise environment is on the edge node server. Communications between the auxiliary display and data entry device are encrypted.
