Techniques are provided which may be implemented using various methods and/or apparatuses on a mobile device to concurrently scan for signals across two or more frequencies while optimizing sending and/or utilizing signal measurements made at higher frequency bands or signal measurements of signals sent from devices at a shorter range.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for generating a minimum-cost circulation topology in a mesh network is provided. The system comprises one or more processors configured to receive a service request from a client computer and identify a group of services for the service request. The one or more processors are further configured to iteratively query a global registry for each of the group of services to obtain respective groups of dependent service instances, generate an adjacency table including a plurality of service dependency paths identified from the respective groups of dependent service instances. The system determines a minimum-cost service dependency path by applying a predetermined cost algorithm on the adjacency table and executing a first service instance of the minimum-cost service dependency path and route the service request to the second service instance in the dependency path.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed facilitate distributed orchestration and deployment of a single instance of a distributed computing application over a plurality of clouds and container clusters, including container clusters provided through a Container as a Service (CaaS) offering. In some embodiments, system and pattern constructs associated with a hybrid distributed multi-tier application may be used to obtain an infrastructure independent representation of the distributed multi-tier application. The infrastructure independent representation may comprise a representation of an underlying pattern of resource utilization of the application. Further, the underlying pattern of resource utilization of the application may be neither cloud specific nor container cluster specific.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed facilitate obtaining a cloud agnostic representation of a first Virtual Machine Image (VMI) on a first cloud; and obtaining a second VMI for a second cloud different from the first cloud, wherein the second VMI is obtained based, at least in part, on the cloud agnostic representation of the first VMI.

Abstract: Provided is an enhanced LPP transport that may improve performance where a sender or receiver of messages processes certain messages that include requests to abort transactions or sessions, or processes certain messages that might otherwise result in the sending of abort messages. Embodiments may reduce unwanted system actions such as, for example, the unwanted termination of a transaction or session, or the unnecessary use of system resources.

Abstract: A mobile device is capable of enabling one or more location data sources for location determination of the mobile device. The mobile device may receive a request for an emergency location session, e.g., by a user dialing E911 or from an external client. At least one location data source in the mobile device is determined to be disabled. For example, the location data sources may be a WLAN transceiver or a WPAN transceiver, as well as camera sensors and environmental sensors. The disabled location data source (s) is enabled and location data is obtained from the enabled location data source(s). The location data may be provided, e.g., to a location server. The status of the location data source (s) may be restored, e.g., disabled, after the location data is obtained or after the emergency location session is completed.

Abstract: A mobile station that is wirelessly linked to a wearable device, receives a request to initiate a location session from the wearable device, e.g., which may be in the form of an emergency call. The mobile station determines whether the location of the mobile station may be used as a location of the wearable device, e.g., by determining if the wearable device is proximate to the mobile station. For example, the mobile station may check to see if the mobile station is wirelessly linked to a wearable device through a wireless personal area network (WPAN). The mobile station initiates the location session for the wearable device with a location server. If the location of the mobile station may not be used as a location of the wearable device, the location session for the wearable device does not use position information obtained from the mobile station.

Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein are generally directed toward providing a fallback mechanism to use when the authentication session between the SET and E-SLP fails. In particular, the techniques provided herein allow the SET to attempt to connect with SLPs using given and/or generated information. As such, the techniques provided herein increase the likelihood that the SET will be able to complete a successful SUPL session, and a location of the SET will be provided to an emergency response service.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for providing control over a port, such as a port utilizing the User Datagram Protocol, for example, in a mobile device. In a particular implementation, a mobile device user may select to close or otherwise restrict access to the port, which may thus prevent a user external to the cellular communications network from obtaining the user's present location and/or from hindering operations of the mobile device. Upon detection of an event, the port may be reopened, which may thereby permit a cellular communications network to determine an estimate of the mobile device user's location responsive to, for example, the user placing an E911 emergency call.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, devices, systems, apparatus, servers, computer-/processor-readable media, and other implementations, including a method, performed at a first processor-based wireless device, that includes transmitting at a first time instance, from the first wireless device to a second wireless device, a wireless message including message content, and dynamically determining an adjustable timeout interval based, at least in part, on one or more network characteristics associated with a network comprising the first and/or second wireless devices. The method further includes transmitting at least one subsequent wireless message including at least some of the message content of the wireless message upon a determination that an acknowledgement message responsive to the wireless message transmitted at the first time instance was not received at the first wireless device within a time period, subsequent to the first time instance, greater or equal to the determined adjustable timeout interval.
