System and techniques for multiple stream tuning are described herein. A plurality of content streams may be received. The plurality of content streams may be ranked. A user attention level may be scored as the user observes at least one content stream of the plurality of content streams. The user attention level and a rank for the at least one content stream may be compared to remaining ranks of the plurality of content streams to produce a difference. A stream action may be performed on a set of content streams from the plurality of content streams based on the difference.

An information terminal 10 successively receives a plurality of packets that configure distribution data from an information distribution server 20, and requests the information distribution server 20 to change a bit rate of the packets that configure the distribution data, if it is judged that congestion occurs in communication with the information distribution server 20 based on a change in time interval from transmission to reception of each of the successively received packets, and if it is judged that a packet loss rate, which is a rate of a loss packet corresponding to a loss included in the packets transmitted from the information distribution server 20 and calculated based on the successively received packets, is increased as compared with a value obtained by multiplying a packet loss rate before the packets that configure the distribution data are received, by a predetermined weight.

A system and method that includes executing communication processes in an application platform, which comprises on behalf of outside entities, negotiating communications between a set of internal resources and at least one external resource using at least a first communication protocol and a second protocol; capturing internal log information during execution of the application platform; receiving a request to access log information by an outside entity; synthesizing the internal log information of the first protocol and at least a second protocol into a unified communication report; and transmitting the unified communication report.

Systems and methods for performing routing are described. For each of a plurality of messages transmitted over a primary route, a message transmission indication is received by an application. The application further receives, for at least one of the messages, a conversion indication that is based on the transmitted message. The quality of the primary route is determined based on a subset or all of the transmission indications and a subset or all of the conversion indications. Based on this determination, an alternate route is selected to replace the primary route.

In some embodiments, a user equipment device (UE) implements improved communication methods which include radio resource time multiplexing, dynamic sub-frame allocation, and UE transmit duty cycle control. In some embodiments, the UE may communicate with base stations using radio frames that include multiple sub-frames, transmit information regarding allocation of a portion of the sub-frames of a respective radio frame for each of a plurality of the radio frames, and transmit and receive data using allocated sub-frames and not using unallocated sub-frames. In some embodiments, the UE may operate according to a sub-frame allocation based on its current power state. The UE may transmit information to the base station and receive the sub-frame allocation based on at least the information. In some embodiments, the UE may switch transmit duty cycles based on an occurrence of a condition at the UE. The UE may inform the network of the switch.

Systems and methods for generating a fingerprint including multiple tracking identifiers. Control circuitry receives a first tracking identifier from a first component of a network. The first tracking identifier is associated with a data request sent to the first component. The control circuitry identifies parameters based on a configuration of the first component. The control circuitry transmits an application programming interface (API) request for information related to the parameters from the first component. The control circuitry receives information related to the parameters for the first component in response to the API request. The control circuitry determines a second tracking identifier based on the first tracking identifier and the information related to the parameters for the first component. The control circuitry transmits the second tracking identifier to the first component. The first tracking identifier and the second tracking identifier are combined to generate a fingerprint in connection with the data request.

Exemplary methods include receiving requests comprising of monitoring zones (MZs), each MZ to be allocated a pair of probes in a network, wherein each MZ is associated with a rule identifying a condition for when its probes are to be updated, and wherein each probe in the network is associated with a rule identifying a condition of when it is updated. The methods include determining whether previously allocated pairs of probes in the network can serve as probes for one or more MZs in the requests, wherein a previously allocated pair of probes can serve as probes for a MZ if a rule associated with the MZ is similar to rules associated with the previously allocated pair of probes. The methods include for each MZ that can be served by a previously allocated pair of probes, sending information identifying the MZ and the previously allocated pair of probes.

The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for uplink channel access in a High Efficiency WLAN (HEW). According to one aspect, a method for transmitting an uplink frame by a station (STA) to an access point (AP) in a wireless local area network may be provided. The method may include receiving from the AP a trigger frame for eliciting an uplink transmission from the STA, transmitting to the AP the uplink frame according to a type of the trigger frame, wherein when the uplink frame is transmitted in an uplink multiple user (MU) transmission, the uplink frame includes a padding added by the STA such that transmissions from a plurality of STAs including the STA in the uplink MU transmission end at a same time indicated by the trigger frame, and receiving from the AP a frame in response to the uplink MU transmission a predetermined time after an end of the uplink MU transmission.

The present disclosure describes a system and method for efficient, coordinated, distributed execution. Processes are registered into a process registry which includes a table or list of processes. Processes which are determined to be no longer running are removed from the registry. Each process is configured to send a broadcast when it starts or stops. Each process periodically reads the registry, sorts the list, and uses it to determine the current master process based on an algorithm.

A user equipment configured to operate in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. The user equipment comprises transceiver circuitry that operates the user equipment in either of two modes, the two modes comprising: i) a first mode in which the transceiver circuitry performs packet data services in the LTE network and performs voice calls in the LTE network using a Voice over LTE (VoLTE) service; and ii) a second mode in which the transceiver circuitry performs packet data services in the LTE network and performs voice calls in a legacy network. The user equipment also comprises a controller that compares a link quality associated with a radio link to the LTE network to at least one threshold value and, in response to the comparison, controls switching the user equipment between the first mode and the second mode. The controller switches the user equipment from the first mode to the second mode if the link quality falls below a first drop threshold value associated with an RSRP value or an SINR value. The controller switches the user equipment from the first mode to the second mode if the link quality falls below the first drop threshold value for more than a drop period of time threshold value.
