Abstract: A wireless communication network exchanges user data with a User Equipment (UE) over a set of Public Mobile Land Networks (PLMNs). The wireless communication network detects excessive PLMN switching by the UE among the set of the PLMNs, and in response, directs the UE to use a subset of the PLMNs to inhibit the excessive PLMN switching. The wireless communication network exchanges subsequent data with the UE over the subset of the PLMNs.

Abstract: The technology described herein generates cryptographic keys for a system on-chip (SoC). The technology uses a cryptographic key hierarchy to generate cryptographic keys as needed and in constant time. The cryptographic key hierarchy uses a cryptographic key from a parent node as an input to the cryptographic function used to generate cryptographic keys associated with child nodes of the parent node. A single cryptographic key or batch of cryptographic keys may be generated as needed in response to a trigger event. Each key may be generated using a prescribed amount of iterations performed across the various hierarchical levels of the cryptographic key hierarchy. The amount of iterations performed at each level may be determined on a chip-by-chip basis. The unique identifier on a SoC may also be used as an input to the cryptographic function. Using the unique identifier as an input to the cryptographic function generates SoC-specific cryptographic keys.

Abstract: Described herein are tiered synchronization systems and methods suitable for use in non-relational database systems distributed across multiple remote locations, which may provide access to some or all functionality of a cloud-tier server at a mid-tier server. For example, the mid-tier server may be locally accessible (e.g., over LAN) to clients independent of any remote connection to the cloud-tier server (e.g., over the Internet). In some embodiments, a mid-tier server may be configured to perform flexible sync functionality, such as flexible partitioning and/or permissions, whether independently and/or in cooperation with the cloud-tier server performing the same or similar functionality. In some embodiments, systems described herein may provide flexible and consistent local data access to non-relational data in locations where remote network connections are intermittent, such as due to weather conditions, relatively frequent network outages, and/or due to the location regularly changing (e.g.

Abstract: A system facilitates handover of mobile devices from one telecommunications network to another. The system receives a communication indicating a request by a user equipment (UE) to transfer from (i) a first communication session within a first telecommunications network, in which the UE is assigned a first IP address, to (ii) a second communication session within a second telecommunications network, in which the first IP address is invalid. The system transfers a context of the UE from the first telecommunications network to the second telecommunications network that does not include the first IP address. The context causes the second telecommunications network to notify the UE that the first communication session is inactive and to facilitate assignment of a second IP address to the UE in the second communication session. The system then releases the first IP address.

Abstract: The system described herein introduces a file system operation that enables a file system to delete a directory tree without the overhead associated with opening each file in the directory tree, marking the file for deletion, and closing the file. Accordingly, the file system is able to delete directories and files in the directory tree independent of communicating with, and being transparent to, filter drivers in the operating system. The file system operation is implemented via a directory tree delete attribute included in a request for deletion of a directory tree. The file system can perform the file system operation in a foreground manner or in a deferred manner based on the directory tree delete attribute respectively specifying foreground deletion or deferred deletion. By operating on files and directories in a single invocation, the file system can optimize overheads related to security checks and data transfer across a user-to-kernel boundary.
