Abstract: Embodiments related to gateway arrangements for wireless communication networks are disclosed herein. For example, in some embodiments, a network controller computing system may include serving gateway (SGW) control plane circuitry to virtualize control plane functions of an SGW, packet data network gateway (PGW) control plane circuitry to virtualize control plane functions of a PGW, first communication circuitry to establish a first secure communication link between the SGW control plane circuitry and an SGW user plane computing system that is to perform user plane functions of an SGW, and second communication circuitry to establish a second secure communication link between the PGW control plane circuitry and a PGW user plane computing system that is to perform user plane functions of a PGW. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of protocol converters (PCs), and related techniques, are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a PC may include reception logic to receive Extensible Markup Language (XML) data transmitted by an Application Function (AF), conversion logic to convert the XML data into a Diameter Protocol (DP) message, and provision logic to provide the DP message for transmission to a Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF). Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe techniques and configurations for triggering a plurality of wireless devices such as Machine Type Communication (MTC) devices in a wireless communication network. A method may include receiving, by an interworking function (IWF) of a wireless communication network, a trigger from a machine type communication (MTC) server to initiate a communication between the MTC server and a plurality of MTC devices and sending, by the IWF, a triggering indication to the plurality of MTC devices using a radio access network (RAN) over a first reference point to a first module including a cell broadcast center (CBC) or over a second reference point to a second module including a mobility management entity (MME) or a serving general packet radio service (GPRS) support node (SGSN). Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to the migration of a static object, such as an electronic document, across separate computer systems while retaining context data associated with the static object. In one embodiment, a source computer system is adapted to package a static object and associated context information and transmit the package over a network to a target computer system. The target computer system may present the static object in an application with the associated context information to substantially approximate presentation of the same at the source computer system. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
