Abstract: An approach is provided for optimizing energy consumption for wireless always-on connections. A radio management module buffers non-real time data and schedules the transmission of the non-real time data by a wireless device. The module also determines a communication type for carrying the non-real time data and initiates transmission of the non-real time data based on the schedule and the determined communication type.

Abstract: Augmenting media based on proximity detection involves detecting proximate devices of participants of an event via a wireless proximity device. User media associated with the participants is obtaining based on the proximity detection and further based on contact data associated with the participants. Event media that records an aspect of the event is obtained the event media is combined with the user media to form augmented media, wherein the augmented media simulates the participant's presence in the event media.

Abstract: An approach is provided for optimizing message routing without repeatedly resolving a home location. A login request from a user equipment associated with a resource identifier is received. The user equipment is configured to operate within a network including a plurality of clusters. The resource identifier of the user equipment is modified to include home cluster information indicating a corresponding one of the clusters serving the user equipment.

Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus comprises at least one processor and at least one memory. The at least one memory includes computer program code. Further, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following associate an organization with a user and update a contact associated with the organization based at least in part on a contact change made by the organization. Further, the apparatus comprise a user interface configured to display the contact to the user based at least in part on at least one of the following: geographic location of the user or the updated contact.
