Abstract: Disclosed is a method for establishing a connection to a terminal device equipped with a subscriber identity module. The method includes: defining the plurality of subscriber identity modules as a group; defining, for at least one of the plurality of subscriber identity modules, at least one characteristic relating to accessing the at least one subscriber identity module; in response to a receipt of a connection request in a terminal device inquiring the at least one characteristic; and establishing, from the terminal device, a connection to the terminal device indicated in the connection request in accordance with the at least one characteristic relating to accessing the at least one subscriber identity module. Also disclosed is a terminal device, a system and a computer program product.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for generating position information of a terminal device served by a mobile communication network. The method including: receiving at least one signal carrying data applicable in a determination of a position of the terminal device; determining the position of the terminal device, applying a masking function to determined position data, determining a slice within a time-dependent network representation in accordance with at least one network characteristic determined by the terminal device, and generating a data record including: a masked position data; information on the determined slice; and at least one network parameter applied by the masking function. Also disclosed is a terminal device and a computer program product.

Abstract: The embodiments herein relate to methods and apparatus for controlling a microgrid network. The microgrid comprises an energy negotiation resolution system configured to receive from each energy consuming component of the microgrid a list with information on power supply/production units; determine whether there is a conflict in priorities between received lists with regards to the listed energy production units, based on requests received from each energy consuming components; resolve the conflict when there is a conflict in priorities; and inform each energy consuming component involved in the conflict of the energy production unit to use as energy source. The embodiments also relate to the energy consuming component and a method therein.

Abstract: A method for controlling a repair of at least one non-autonomic extrinsic self-healing material in an object, the method including: triggering, by a server, at least one sensor element embedded in the at least one non-autonomic extrinsic self-healing material to initiate a testing procedure, receiving a result of the testing procedure, analyzing the result, determining capability information of the sensor element with an inquiry, receiving the capability information, determining a triggering instruction to the sensor element on the basis of the capability information, delivering the triggering instruction to utilize an applicable capability of the sensor element to the sensor element. A server implementing the method and a system are also described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for configuring a device equipped with a subscriber identity module in a mesh network environment. The device is configured retrieve at least one first piece of configuration information from at least one other device in the same mesh network and configure itself at least partly on the basis of the retrieved configuration information. Further, the device is configured to establish a connection to a network node, to indicate presence of the device in the mesh network, and to retrieve at least one second piece of configuration information. Finally, the device is arranged to configure itself on the basis of the retrieved at least one second piece of configuration information received from the network node.
