A wireless device to provide mobile gamification services includes a transceiver configured to transmit data, an application to remotely connect via a network to a mobile website, to download a game from the mobile website to the wireless device, to execute the game locally on the wireless device, to execute the game via the mobile website, to redeem game rewards associated with wireless services, and to select the game rewards associated with the wireless services, a processor to control the transceiver and execute the application, a display to display the game and the game rewards, and a computer readable medium to store the application and user preferences associated with the game and with the wireless services.

A method of deploying a network service (NS) across multiple data centers includes identifying virtual network functions (VNFs) associated with the NS in response to a request for or relating to the NS, generating commands to deploy VNFs based on VNF descriptors, and issuing the commands to the data centers to deploy VNFs. The data centers each have a cloud management server in which cloud computing management software is run to provision virtual infrastructure resources thereof for a plurality of tenants. The cloud computing management software of a first data center is different from the cloud computing management software of a second data center, and the commands issued to the first and second data centers are each a generic command that is not in a command format of the cloud computing management software of either the first data center or the second data center.

Methods and devices are disclosed from the perspective of a first wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). In one method, the method includes triggering a first buffer status report (BSR), wherein the first BSR indicates an estimated amount of data expected to arrive.

Systems and methods for neutral application programming interfaces are disclosed. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a system for neutral application programming interfaces. The system may comprise a device. The device may be configured to receive a request. The request may comprise an outer payload and an inner payload. The device may be further configured to parse the outer payload based on a common definition of the outer payload. The device may be further configured to extract information of an action from the outer payload. The device may be further configured to parse the inner payload based on a definition of the action. The device may be further configured to process the action.

A system and method in accordance with example embodiments may include systems and methods for a cloud-based analytics platform. The cloud-based analytics platform may allow the manual and automatic uploading to and/or downloading from a cloud server. The platform may include single sign-on (SSO) capabilities such that a user may have one set of credentials to access data from the cloud-based analytics and/or data stored locally. The platform may include data validation and processing in order to provide real-time feedback on uploads based on file type, file size, access rights, extracted data, and transformed data.

The present invention comprises a system and method for receiving at an application server a request for a software application from a mobile device wherein the request includes an indicator that allows the application server to tell whether the mobile device currently has a software application interpreter installed, sending the software application interpreter to a cellular wireless network for provisioning to the mobile device if the indicator shows that the mobile device does not have the application interpreter installed, and sending the software application to a cellular wireless network for provisioning to the mobile device. The invention further comprises a system and method for updating the software application in a way that seems automatic to a user.

Disclosed herein at methods and systems for monitoring and analyzing code and identifying a suitable substitute for the identified code. A central server identifies inserted code configured to communicate session data to a second server. The central server then identifies an application having functionality corresponding to the inserted code. The central server then provides an indication of the corresponding application.

A vehicle system includes: a reprogramming slave device that is an electronic control unit (hereinafter, referred to as ECU) to be a target of updating an update file of a program stored among a plurality of the ECUs; a reprogramming master device that transmits the update file to the reprogramming slave device in response to a request from a terminal operable by a vehicle user to control updating of the program stored in the reprogramming slave device; and a determination unit that determines traveling propriety of a vehicle when the update file is rewritten in the reprogramming slave device. The vehicle device functions as the reprogramming master device, and includes: an obtaining unit that obtains the traveling propriety determined by the determination unit; and a notification command unit that commands a notification medium to notify information of the traveling propriety obtained by the obtaining unit.

Systems and methods for a device portal management system that stores discovery data for multiple computing devices are described. The device portal management system may store first discovery data for a first computing device and second discovery data from a second computing device. A user associated with the first computing device and the second computing device may access the discovery data via the device portal management system. The user may further configure the first computing device and the second computing device via the device portal management system.

A method for updating communication parameters on a mobile device, the method including sending a communication from the mobile device to a server, the communication including a location of the mobile device; receiving at the mobile device, responsive to the communication, a new communication parameter; reconfiguring the mobile device with the new communication parameter; and sending a second communication from the mobile device to the server, the second communication using the new communication parameter.
