Abstract: A method performed by a network system communicatively coupled to a device over a wireless access network, the method comprising transmitting a traffic flow to, or receiving the traffic flow from, a software application on the device, the traffic flow comprising one or more related data transfers over the wireless access network, the traffic flow being routed between the software application and the network system through an assisting element comprising a control application or a proxy agent on the device, wherein the traffic flow has a characteristic associating the traffic flow with the first software application, the characteristic preserving the association between the traffic flow and the software application when the traffic flow is routed by the one or more assisting elements; identifying the characteristic; and implementing at least a portion of a control, accounting, or notification service policy based on the identified characteristic.

Abstract: A test module for simultaneously testing a plurality of IC packages in a simulated multi-chip module environment. The test module includes a module board adapted to receive the IC packages and a plurality of module adapters configured to secure the IC packages to the module board. The module adapters secure the IC packages to the module board and establish electrical contact between the IC package leads and a plurality of contact pads disposed on the module board, with no permanent bonding agent. Reliable electrical connections are established between the IC package leads and the contact pads by a plurality of protruding pins extending from each module adapter, which bias the IC package leads towards the contact pads. A plurality of IC packages assembled into the test module may be subjected to module level testing.
