Abstract: Effectively reading multiple temperature sensors on memory modules may include reading a first of a plurality of temperature sensors on each memory module of a plurality of memory modules, reading a second of the plurality of temperature sensors on each memory module, after reading the first sensors on each memory module, and, if present, reading a third of the plurality of temperature sensors on each memory module of the plurality of memory modules, after reading the second of the sensors on each memory module. The first temperature sensors may be reread prior to reading the third temperature sensors, particularly where the first temperature sensors are middle temperature sensors on each memory module. Upon failing to read a particular temperature sensor, neighboring temperature sensors of the particular temperature sensor may be polled, such as (an) other temperature sensor(s) on the same memory module and/or (a) temperature sensor(s) on adjacent memory module(s).

Abstract: In a Fifth Generation (5G) network having an enhanced SBA (eSBA) architecture, a message with a header used to signal binding information (e.g. HTTP custom header for 3gpp-Sbi-Binding) may be received at a recipient NF (service) instance in a direct communication or via a service communication proxy (SCP) in an indirect communication.

Abstract: A mobile network is operative to perform a quota validation procedure in relation to a maximum number of user equipments (UEs) permitted in a network slice. In one illustrative example, a control plane (CP) function of the mobile network may receive, from the UE, a message which indicates a registration request for registration and includes a slice ID of the network slice. The CP function may manage a registration procedure for assigning resources of the network slice to the UE. The CP function may alternatively manage the registration procedure to refrain from assigning the resources of the network slice to the UE, at least for a delay time period, based on identifying that an indication of the UE indicates an expected delay in use of service in the network slice. The indication may be included in the message and indicate the delay time period of the expected delay.

The UDM of the mobile network provides access to a plurality of subscription profiles associated with a plurality of subscribers of the mobile network, and each private network UDM instance provides access to a subset of the subscription profiles associated with a subset of the subscribers in the private mobile network. The UDM of the mobile network operates to communicate, in an authentication procedure, authentication data for authentication of a user equipment (UE) in the mobile network. After the authentication of the UE in the mobile network, the UDM operates to push authentication status information of the UE to the private network UDM instance of the private mobile network.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for network slice support of respective transport protocols. In one example, a session management function obtains, from a user equipment, a request for a network slice identifier in a network that includes a plurality of network slices each configured to support a respective transport protocol. In response to the request, the session management function identifies a first transport protocol of the respective transport protocols by which the user equipment is to communicate. Based on the first transport protocol, the session management function identifies a first network slice of the plurality of network slices by which the user equipment is to communicate. The first network slice is configured to support the first transport protocol. The session management function provides the network slice identifier to the user equipment. The network slice identifier corresponds to the first network slice.

Abstract: Temperature regulation at one or more modules of an information handling system is challenging due to a large number of sensors from which data is to be read, to a lack of information from which the temperature of the module or associated temperature tolerances can be determined, or both. The disclosure obviates reliance on data derived from sensors and does not rely on temperature tolerance data to regulate a temperature at a module. Access data is obtained that includes a number of accesses to the module, a time at which each access of the number of accesses occurs, or both. A temperature pattern is derived, based on the access data, and that corresponds to a temperature profile of the module. Open-loop control of a cooling device is initiated, based on the temperature patterns, to regulate a temperature of the module, a temperature profile of the module, or both.
