Abstract: A network node modifies an association between the 3GPP defined Network Functions (NFs) and one or more cloud-native services thereby changing how those NFs are realized by the cloud-native services. To accomplish this, the node (200) “decouples” the NFs from the cloud-native services such that the NFs are unaware of the underlying cloud-native services that realize them and orchestrates the cloud-native services executing in the cloud that will realize those NFs. Additionally, the node automatically deploys, upgrades, scales, and heals the cloud-native services, as well as exposes the NFs and their interfaces, thereby facilitating the management of fault, configuration, accounting, performance, and security (FCAPS).

Abstract: A transformation engine that enables content and information to be transformed from one format, a source format, to a format that is compatible with the requesting device, a destination format. Advantageously, various device types can access and share content via a network without concern as to the original format of the content. When a client device provides a request for content, the transformation engine identifies delivery characteristics of the client device, and identifies a source for the requested content. The transformation engine then transforms the source formatted content into a format identified through a best fit analysis of the delivery characteristics of the device.

Abstract: A method of blow-molding comprising forming a parison (tube) of a thermoplastics material, closing a mold around the parison, injecting compressed gas into the parison through a blowing hole to form a molded product that is shaped according to the shape of the mold, then deforming a seal forming portion of the molded product with a heated sealing tool to seal the blowing hole. The seal-forming portion may comprise a tubular collar that surrounds the blowing hole.
