Aspects herein generally relate to a system and/or a method for enforcing synchronization of WiFi users interacting with a common hierarchical multi-element VR/AR scene. The aspects can use Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and trigger frames to synchronize parallel updates to different scene elements. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) can be used to analyze standard VR/AR streaming formats to identify those VR scene elements that are to be synchronized. The result is a more immersive AR/VR experience for the users, who receive the same scene elements at the same time.

Device Assisted Services (DAS) for protecting network capacity is provided. In some embodiments, DAS for protecting network capacity includes monitoring a network service usage activity of the communications device in network communication; classifying the network service usage activity for differential network access control for protecting network capacity; and associating the network service usage activity with a network service usage control policy based on a classification of the network service usage activity to facilitate differential network access control for protecting network capacity.

The method may include collecting performance data relating to processing nodes of a computer system which provide services via one or more applications, analyzing the performance data to generate an operational profile characterizing resource usage of the processing nodes, receiving a set of attributes characterizing expected performance goals in which the services are expected to be provided, and generating at least one provisioning policy based on an analysis of the operational profile in conjunction with the set of attributes. The at least one provisioning policy may specify a condition for re-allocating resources associated with at least one processing node in a manner that satisfies the performance goals of the set of attributes. The method may further include re-allocating, during runtime, the resources associated with the at least one processing node when the condition of the at least one provisioning policy is determined as satisfied.

Systems and methods for managing a global virtual network connection between an endpoint device and an access point server are disclosed. In one embodiment the network system may include an endpoint device, an access point server, and a control server. The endpoint device and the access point server may be connected with a first tunnel. The access point server and the control server may be connected with a second tunnel.

Access to real-time communication services associated with real-time communication addresses may be provided based on a user account. A user logging in to a user account on one computing device may be provided with access to real-time communication services associated with a real-time communication address even when that real-time communication address is a real-time communication address for another device. Once logged in, the user may receive or initiate real-time communications for that real-time communication address at the computing device. The user may also add another real-time communication address that is not specific to any device to the user account. Communications to the other real-time communication address are routed to whatever device the user is logged in to. Also, the user may download a wireless communication application to a computing device to provide access to real-time communications over a telecommunication network that might otherwise be unavailable.
