Abstract: A first policy control function (PCF) in a first network node may receive an indication from a session management function (SMF) that a protocol data unit (PDU) session is an alternative PDU session, and an indication of whether the PDU session is in a drop state. The first PCF may send a message with an indication to a second PCF in a second network node to indicate that the network node is serving a PDU session that is an alternative PDU session. In an example, the message with an indication to the second PCF may also identify the PDU session. The first PCF may receive a message from the second PCF with an indication that a second PDU session has experienced a fault or degraded performance. Further, the first PCF may send a message to the SMF to change the PDU session to a no-drop state.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive a power reporting policy from a network node. The power reporting policy may include one or more triggers associated with sending a power status report. The WTRU may determine that a trigger of the one or more triggers associated with sending the power status report has been satisfied. The WTRU may send the power status report to the network node in accordance with the power reporting policy. The power status report may include power status information associated with the WTRU and/or an indication that indicates the determined trigger to send the power status report.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are described herein for accessing hardware resources in distributed computing environments, Remote hardware (e.g., hardware resources) may be accessed, for example, using interfaces (e.g., device driver interfaces). Remote hardware (e.g., within a terminal and/or on the edge) may be accessed, for example, to enable computationally intensive applications (e.g., multi-player games, augmented/virtual reality) to be run on terminal devices, A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may enable emote hardware access.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, architectures and interfaces for a Device Packaging Entity (DPE) for dynamically packaging a set of resources for a transient device (TD) providing a user experience (UX). A method may include any of: determining services, devices, and resources, constituting the TD according to UX requirements associated with the UX or a Dynamic Programming model (DPM) of the UX; receiving configuration information associated with: (1) resources, and (2) devices associated with resources, available for services associated with providing the UX; selecting the set of resources for the TD according to: (1) required services or resources, associated with providing the UX, and (2) the configuration information, and (3) a set of resources satisfying requirements associated with the UX and the DP model; transmitting an instantiation message for configuring the selected set of resources for the TD; and transmitting and receiving information associated with the selected set of resources.
