Abstract: Emergency services support is indicated to roaming devices in a wireless network. A user equipment (UE) may receive a message from the wireless network indicating at least one public land mobile network (PLMN) that provides emergency services support for devices in limited service. The UE may store, in a non-volatile memory (NVM), an identifier of the at least one PLMN in a whitelist of limited service emergency services support. In response to a trigger in a roaming limited service condition of the UE, the UE may establish an emergency session with a selected PLMN based on the whitelist of limited service emergency services support.

Abstract: Methods and systems for operating an online marketplace for the sale of goods and services associated with self-help moving and relocating are described. A customer enters an online marketplace where vendors offer services and goods relating to moving and relocating, specifically in the “do-it-yourself” moving field. The venue for the online marketplace is an Internet web site or a site on a computer network and is operated by a host that determines which vendors will be listed on the site. Once in the marketplace, the customer can view informational content on numerous vendors providing services relating to moving and relocating. Based on the estimates provided by the marketplace as well as reviews, ratings, customer feedback, and background information on the vendors, the customer selects a vendor and “prepays for” the vendor's services on the marketplace. The customer is then provided a confirmation code.

Abstract: A method of providing auxiliary services in a computer network marketplace relating to an originating transaction between a customer and a host is described. The originating transaction typically involves self-help moving and relocating, such as reserving a moving truck or trailer and other moving equipment. The originating transaction is processed by accepting customer input requested by the host. The customer can access content describing an auxiliary service relating to the originating transaction, such as services from other vendors relating to moving and relocating. The service provider is listed in the marketplace at the discretion of the host and the customer input for the originating transaction is used by the host to expedite processing of a secondary transaction for the auxiliary service between the customer and the auxiliary service provider. The customer can use the marketplace to view information on the auxiliary service provider and to purchase the auxiliary service.

Abstract: A method in a target device for partially reordering a plurality of data packets transmitted from a source device. The source device is coupled to the target device via a computer network. The method receiving a first set of data packets from the transmitted device, and ascertaining whether the first set of data packets represents a set of data packets that the target device expects to receive next. If the first set of data packets does not represents the set of data packets that the target expects to receive next, the method includes storing the first set of data packets in a memory buffer of the target device. The storing includes arranging the first set of data packets in the memory buffer such that data packets in the memory buffer, including the first set of data packets, are in order in the memory buffer.

Abstract: A single sleep mode controller which ensures that there is at least a corresponding minimum voltage level across capacitors when the corresponding regulators are turned off. In an embodiment, the sleep mode controller uses a single comparator which compares the voltages across capacitors in a time division multiplexed (TDM) manner, and initiates the charging operation for the capacitor if the voltage level falls below a corresponding minimum voltage level. The sleep mode controller continues the charging operation until the voltage level exceeds a corresponding upper threshold value. Due to the use of the single controller, power and/or space savings may be attained.
