Abstract: Systems and methods described provide a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) optimization service. A network device in a RAN predicts high usage thresholds and available per-service resources for supporting MIMO transmissions. The network device identifies, based on the predicted usage thresholds, user equipment (UE) devices that have a high-throughput session and have high usage levels on a cell. The network device assigns, based on the predicted available per-service resources, sounding reference signal (SRS)-based MIMO resources to the UE devices in the cell and assigns codebook-based MIMO resources to other UE devices in the cell.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electrolyzer comprising a horizontal cathode located below a suspended anode for purposes of performing electrolysis on metal-bearing mixtures or solutions. The horizontal cathode may comprise the bottom surface of a compartment for containing a mixture or solution of metal components, electrolyte, and/or supplemental chemicals. The horizontal anode may engage the upper surface of the mixture or solution in the compartment. A removal mechanism for facilitating removal of the end-products of the mixture or solution from the compartment (and the surface of the horizontal cathode) through the gate may also be employed. These implementations may be used in recycling of lead acid batteries (LABs) without any need for smelting, and also may be applied to a variety of different electrolytical operations.

Abstract: Methods and computer-readable media for providing customer issue troubleshooting are provided. Customer service representatives may use the graphical user interface (GUI) to more effectively diagnose issues subscribers may be experiencing with the network service. The GUI provides a window containing diagnostic segments displayed on a computer screen. The window is monitored to detect a selection of a diagnostic segment. The diagnostic segments provide categories of possible network service issues and include: a coverage segment, a voice segment, a data segment, and a device segment. Once a diagnostic segment has been selected the window automatically displays the diagnostic result. In addition, information on a network service degradation event may be displayed on an event timeline segment of the window. The window also provides segments for customer information, recommendations to the customer, and a slider allowing adjusting of a date timeline for network service disruptions.

Abstract: An example method for managing a cell site in a 5G RAN may include determining a physical infrastructure layer, a container orchestration platform on the physical infrastructure layer, and a CNF instance associated with the 5G RAN in the container orchestration platform based on a site identifier associated with the cell site. Based on the physical infrastructure layer, the container orchestration platform, and the CNF instance, the method may include building a logical site resource map representing topological information of the cell site. Further, the method may include monitoring and/or managing the cell site using the logical site resource map.

Using the selected network slice, data associated with the user device is transmitted.

Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product optimize automatic backup of locally stored media content such as videos and images by identifying and locally caching low quality content rather than automatically backing up to reduce network storage. Image capturing device(s) of the electronic device generates media content of at least one of images and videos. A controller of the electronic device receives the media content from the image capturing device(s). The controller determines a quality value of the media content and stores the media content in a cache data structure in memory. The controller stores, in a digital camera image data structure in the memory, media content having a quality value that is greater than or equal to a minimum quality threshold level. The controller uploads, via a communication network to a network storage service, the portion of the media content stored in the digital camera image data structure.

The method includes associating a virtual interface with a location of the secondary segment in the video image, the virtual interface presenting at least one feature that can be selected via one of air gestures and screen touches during presentation of the primary segment of the video image preview. A preview of the delineated segments of the video image presents at least the primary segment and the virtual interface visible within the display device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for network-based cloud service platform integrations with dealer management systems (DMS) are disclosed herein. A cloud service platform may integrate over the network with an instance of a DMS used by an end user. The cloud service platform may define fields that can be used in conjunction with forms useable with the DMS, and may be further capable of storing field data for those fields. The cloud service platform may provide a graphical user interface (GUI) prompt to a user of the DMS to provide the field data. A form using the fields defined at the cloud service platform may be provided to the cloud service platform and filled at the cloud service platform using field data for those fields stored at the cloud service platform. The form may then be provided to a print service for presentation to the user.

Abstract: SR-IOV (single root IO virtualization) capable PCIe devices can implement virtual functions (VFs) that are assigned to VMs running on a host machine, thereby speeding IO operation by writing directly to the VMs' memory while bypassing the hypervisor managing the VMs. As such, VFs thwart the dirty page tracking that hypervisors use to minimize VM downtime when the VM is migrated between hosts. The SR-IOV PCIe devices can help resolve this problem by maintaining dirty page tracking data for VMs running on the host machine. The SR-IOV PCIe devices bypassing the hypervisor while writing into a memory page of the VM can set the dirty page tracking data to indicate the memory pages that are dirty (i.e., written to by the VF), and can provide access to the dirty page tracking data. The hypervisor can thereby obtain and use the dirty page tracking data.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may be in a standalone (SA) mode and start a timer associated with barring a first cell, based on a system information block type 1 (SIB 1) decode timeout failure. The UE may receive, from a base station, a first redirection instruction to connect to the first cell in a non-standalone (NSA) mode. The UE in the NSA mode may determine that the measurement for the first cell is greater than a threshold value, and receive, from the base station a second redirection instruction to switch to the SA mode on the first cell. The UE may pause the timer and perform an initial acquisition procedure on the first cell.
