Abstract: In a multi-radio user equipment, a power backoff or similar restraint may be placed on communications of a first radio, such as LTE, in order to protect operations of a second radio, such as Bluetooth, depending on the time remaining for completion of the communications of the second radio. Such protected operations may include paging or inquiry operations. A power backoff may be applied to an LTE radio in order to protect completion of the paging or inquiry operations. The power backoff may be increased as the time to completion of the paging or inquiry operations approaches.

Abstract: To mitigate potential interference between radio access technologies (RATs) on a multi-RAT device, traffic scheduling rules may be implemented so that communications of the individual RATs are timed in a manner that reduces interference. For example, communications of a Bluetooth/WLAN RAT may be scheduled such that initial and responsive communications of the Bluetooth/WLAN RAT occur during sub-frames of an LTE RAT that are less likely to cause cross-RAT interference.

Abstract: In a mobile device, interference between different radio access technologies (RATs) may be pronounced in the presence of effects of non-linearity. To decrease interference and improve performance, a device may operate a RAT in an improved linearity mode based upon operating conditions of one or more RATs operating in the mobile device. A device may also operate a RAT in an improved noise-figure mode.

Abstract: In a multi-radio user equipment, communications on a Long Term Evolution (LTE) radio and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) radio operating in Wi-Fi mode may be aligned to reduce interference between the two radios. Communications of the WLAN radio may be aligned to the LTE radio using Notice of Absence (NoA) functionality.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure provide techniques to mitigate interference on a multi-radio device by adjusting operation of multiple radio access technologies (RATs) based on communication event combinations. A coexistence manager may create a table of communication event combinations of multiple RATs that may result in cross-RAT interference. The table may include one or more potential coexistence management schemes to be applied in the event a particular communication event combination occurs. When faced with a particular communication event combination the coexistence manager may then reference the table, and apply a corresponding coexistence management scheme.

Abstract: In a mobile device capable of wireless communications using multiple radio access technologies (RATs), transmit communications of one RAT may cause interference with receive communications of another RAT. In the case of wireless local area network (WLAN) communications, a CTS-to-Self message may control the timing of WLAN communications such that WLAN receptions do not overlap with transmissions of another RAT, such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) radio. The CTS-to-Self message timing control may be executed by a mobile device operating as a WLAN access point.

Abstract: A messaging system for managing messaging subscriptions. A messaging provider receives a request to subscribe a user's message account to a subscription system. The messaging provider associates the subscription system with the user's message account to indicate to the messaging provider that the user has subscribed to receive messages from the subscription system. The messaging provider also communicates an identifier for the message account to the subscription system, which is used by the subscription system in sending messages to the user's message account. By subscribing to receive messages from subscription systems via the messaging provider in this manner, the messaging provider is automatically notified of the subscription systems that a user has subscribed to, enabling the messaging provider to more accurately determine how incoming messages should be handled.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes monitoring coexistence issues among supported radios in a User Equipment (UE). The method includes determining a coexistence policy for communication resource operation within a user equipment (UE) and configuring communication resources of the user equipment in accordance with the determined coexistence policy. The policy may give priority to an LTE modem, an ISM modem, or may implement a variable priority scheme. The policy may be communicated to each modem from a host over a software messaging communication line. Modems in the UE may communicate with each other through logical lines providing real time communication. The policy may determine the operation of each modem and the treatment of the logical lines by each modem.

Abstract: A messaging system that organizes and presents messages to users of the messaging system. The messaging system includes a mailbox module that receives messages and generates conversation threads from the messages. Messages received from different electronic message channels may be aggregated into a common conversation thread. The conversation threads are also organized in a message interface and then presented to a user of the messaging system. The messaging system may include a social networking system that stores social information about users, which can be used to organize the conversation threads. Other features include a multi mode message interface, and a method for adding contextual information to messages.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes monitoring coexistence issues among supported radios in a User Equipment (UE). The method includes configuring a UE with first and second filter configurations. The first filter configuration covers a first frequency band, for example a portion of the ISM band. The first filter configuration may be wider than the second filter configuration, which excludes a portion of the first frequency band that is adjacent to a proximate second frequency band, for example LTE Band 7 or LTE Band 40. The UE selects between the first and second filter configurations based on the frequency of a first UE event. If the UE event is in a frequency in the adjacent portion excluded by the second filter configuration, the UE arbitrates depending on event priority. The second filter configuration may be chosen to reduce or minimize arbitration.

Abstract: A messaging system facilitates communication between users through various messaging channels. The messaging system supports multiple communication channels and includes a messaging module that automatically selects one or more of the messaging channels for delivering a message to a recipient of the message using, for example, a set of policy rules or a trained model. The messaging module may also provide, in a user interface for sending and receiving messages, a visual indication of the selected messaging channel to the sender of the message to provide the user with transparency about how the message will be delivered. Additionally, the message may be delivered via multiple messaging channels, where the messaging module may rescind messages from some of the messaging channels upon receiving a reply from the recipient of the message or other confirmation that the recipient has seen the message via one of the communication channels.

Abstract: A method is provided for creating a foundational instructional design model for shareable content object (SCO) by pre-defining a semantically structured reusable learning type (RLT), and joining individual or repeated RLT's with sequence or choice indicators to form an instructional design model. The instructional design model is itself a semantically structured document that can be used and reused to create SCOs.

Abstract: A messaging system receives a message that is intended for a recipient, who is a user of a social networking system. An object associated with the message is identified based on the message content and/or metadata associated with the message. The messaging system accesses a social networking system database to obtain social information about a relationship between the recipient and the identified object. The message is then indexed using the social information, wherein an entry for the message is stored in a message index based on the social information. This process may be repeated for each received message, and multiple different message indexes may be generated for received messages to track different types of social information. A user interface for viewing messages uses the message index to organize the messages, such as to filter, categorize, and/or sort the messages in the display.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention may include a method of receiving a transmission at a receiver. The method may include setting a receive window duration for receiving the transmission based on an elapsed time since last receiving a good transmission. The receive window duration may be a nonlinear function of the elapsed time. The method may further include opening a receive window to listen for the transmission for an amount of time equal to the set receive window duration.

Abstract: Interference between potentially conflicting radio access technologies (RATs) in a wireless device may be managed through a coexistence manager which allows communication using a first active RAT (e.g., Long Term Evolution (LTE)) and communication with a second active RAT (e.g., wireless local area network (WLAN)) when the first RAT is not scheduled for communicating during an uplink timeslot. Communications by a WLAN radio may be controlled using a power save mode. WLAN communications may be timed so that downlink signals (such as data or acknowledgement messages) to the WLAN radio are received during an inactive uplink subframe for an LTE radio. WLAN communications may also be timed so that downlink signals to the WLAN radio are received during downlink times scheduled for an LTE radio.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes partitioning coexistence tasks between short term policy setting tasks and policy implementing tasks, processing the short term policy setting tasks using a first set of computing resources, and processing the policy implementing tasks using a second set of computing resources. The first set may be software resources configured for slower execution of tasks and the second set may be hardware resources configured for just-in-time execution of tasks. The policy may determine a time after which a first radio event is not to be interrupted and granting or denying later events based on whether they would begin before or after the do-not-interrupt time. The do-not-interrupt time may be based on a weighted priority of the first radio event.

Abstract: Interference between potentially conflicting radio access technologies (RATs) in a wireless device may be managed through a coexistence manager. The coexistence manager allows a first active RAT to yield conflicting resources to a second idle RAT for purposes of receiving signals to allow proper operation by the second RAT. These signals may be, for example, paging signals to a Long Term Evolution (LTE) radio or beacons to a wireless local area network (WLAN) radio.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes determining a frame offset between communications of a first communication resource (e.g., an LTE radio) and communications of a second communication resource (e.g., a Bluetooth or WLAN radio). The method also includes determining potential time slot configurations for the communications of the second communication resource. A time slot configuration is selected from the determined potential time slot configurations, to reduce degradation of the first communication resource due to conflicting time slots between the first communication resource and the second communication resource, based on the determined frame offset. The selection may be based on the determined frame offset.

Abstract: A method for saving data may include determining dependencies, by a processing device, between a plurality of data items. The method may also include initiating a save operation by the processing device. Initiating the save operation may include forming a partial-order plan for saving the data items. Forming the partial-order plan may include creating an ordered list of steps which are executable for saving the data items based on the dependencies between the data items.
