Abstract: Systems and techniques for location management are described herein. In an example, a system may include at least one processor and at least one memory with instructions stored thereon that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to obtain data originating from one or more sensors proximate to the location. A trained activity-based detection model may identify an activity at the location and perform a determination of a service to be offered at the location based on the detected activity. The system may then send a message to a user offering the service to the user, and in response to receiving an authorization accepting the service from the user, cause the service to be implemented at the location, which may include classifying the service as a service type, matching the service type to a service provider, and sending a notification to the service provider.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a first transport block including a first uplink grant which schedules a first set of uplink shared channel transmissions for the UE. The base station may monitor the channel to detect an energy value for a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) associated with the one or more uplink shared channel transmissions associated with the first uplink grant that is less than a threshold energy value. Based on the relatively low DMRS energy, the base station may modify a size of a second transport block relative to the first transport block, the second transport block including a second uplink grant that schedules a second set of one or more uplink shared channel transmissions for the UE. The base station may then signal the grant for the modified second transport block to the UE or to another device.

Abstract: A resource management framework may be used to improve performance of dominant and non-dominant resources for edge multi-tenant applications. The resource management framework may include an admission control mechanism, which may be used to balance disproportionate resource allocations by controlling allocation of unconstrained resources proportional to the requested dominant resources based on resource availability. The admission control mechanism may provide ongoing monitoring of dominant and non-dominant resource utilization, such as using a hybrid centralized-distributed telemetry collection approach. The resource management framework may also include a lightweight resource monitoring and policy enforcement mechanism on distributed networking elements to reduce or eliminate the exploitations of non-dominant resources.
