Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining data that is captured by a device, obtaining metadata corresponding to the data where the metadata describes a context of the capturing of the data, analyzing the metadata to identify a segment context of a segment of the data without performing an image recognition for the segment of the data, and, responsive to a determination that the context does not satisfy a context criterion, generating a low bandwidth version of the segment and transmitting the low bandwidth version of the segment of the data, wherein the low bandwidth version is transmitted at a second bandwidth that is lower than the first bandwidth. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Contextual awareness is used to reveal non-verbal expressions. A current context of a device is evaluated to infer a user's body posture and emotional state. The user's body posture and emotional state may then be used for improved services and targeted advertising.

Abstract: Enhanced shared media experiences allow viewer's personal devices to receive targeted content. Targeting advertisements and other content to personal devices is cheaper and more effective than broadcast delivery. Advertisers may still target their advertisements during popular programming with purchasing expensive broadcast advertising slots.

Abstract: A processor of a base station of a radio access network may receive a plurality of parameters for a media streaming session for a transmission of a media to an endpoint device, select at least one radio access network resource for the media streaming session based upon the plurality of parameters for the media streaming session, and establish the media streaming session in accordance with the at least one radio access network resource. The plurality of parameters may comprise a type of media parameter, a packet size parameter, and a mobility parameter. The at least one radio access network resource may comprise a number of carriers, a transmission time interval, a number of sub-carriers, a modulation coding scheme, a carrier frequency, or a duration of a reservation.

Abstract: According to one aspect disclosed herein, a provider device can receive, from a requester device, a network access request requesting, on behalf of the requester device, access to a Wi-Fi network associated with a network provider and provided, at least in part, by a network device.

Abstract: A processor may detect an occurrence of a network anomaly from a set of network operational data collected for a portion of a communication network within a geographic area, detect an occurrence of a weather event from a set of weather data for the geographic area, and determine an occurrence of a weather-related network impairment when the occurrence of the network anomaly and the occurrence of the weather event are detected within a time period, and when the network anomaly and the weather event match a signature for the weather-related network impairment. The processor may further receive, within a time window associated with the time period, a fault report associated with a customer premises within the geographic area and provide a notification and an instruction set to resolve the weather-related network impairment, where the instruction set is stored in a solution record associated with the signature.
