Abstract: An apparatus includes an event memory and processing logic. The event memory is configured to store events corresponding to a plurality of pixels, the events are indicative of changes in luminance levels detected by the pixels. The processing logic is configured to define a mapping that maps events to respective locations in the event memory, to receive a given event generated by a given pixel among the plurality of pixels, to map the given event to multiple locations in the event memory using the mapping, and store event data indicative of the given event in the multiple locations, and, in reading the given event, to map the given event to the multiple locations in the event memory using the mapping, and to verify that the given event is valid based on the event data stored in the multiple locations.

Abstract: A method for communication includes collecting information relating at least to communication of a wireless device over a wireless communication network. An energy-prediction model, which predicts amounts of energy needed in the wireless device for performing communication operations in the wireless communication network, is maintained based on the collected information. For a communication operation that is to be performed by the wireless device in the wireless communication network, a time at which the communication operation will be performed is scheduled based on the energy-prediction model. The communication operation is performed at the scheduled time.

Abstract: A method of operating a terminal in a wireless telecommunications system comprising the terminal and a network node, wherein the method comprises: determining there is data to be transmitted from the terminal to the network node using a series of repeat transmissions; establishing an initial arrangement of transmission resources to be used for transmitting respective ones of the repeat transmissions from the terminal to the network node; starting to transmit the series of repeat transmissions to the network node using transmission resources according to the initial arrangement; establishing before the transmission of the series of repeat transmissions to the network node is complete that a modified arrangement of transmission resources should be used for transmitting at least some of the remaining repeat transmissions; and starting to transmit the at least some remaining repeat transmissions to the network node using transmission resources in accordance with the modified arrangement.

Abstract: A communication device includes a long-rage transceiver, a short-range transceiver and a processor. The long-range transceiver is configured to communicate wirelessly with a Base Station (BS) of a cellular network. The short-range transceiver is configured to communicate wirelessly with one or more peer communication devices over a short-range network. The processor is configured to communicate with the peer communication devices via the short-range transceiver and with the BS via the long-range transceiver, so as to share resources between the communication device and the peer communication devices or the cellular network, for providing a communication service.
