    Abstract: Various techniques for providing network connectivity are described herein. In one example, a moving object includes an uplink device of the moving object to connect the moving object to a publicly available computer network. The moving object also includes a downlink device of the moving object to be communicatively coupled to a remote device at a specific segment along a route of the moving object. The remote device is to provide data received via the downlink device to a user. The moving object also further includes a cache store communicatively coupled to the uplink device and the downlink device. Implementations include the use of commercial airplanes for providing connectivity via intermittent access and refreshing of a cache store that makes content available to end users.

    Abstract: Device charging discovery service techniques are described in which a service collects data regarding charging station availability (e.g., locations where device batteries can be charged) through interaction with a community of devices. Devices provide feedback to the service when charging stations are encountered. The service maintains a database of charging stations that is based upon the community feedback. The database is then used to respond to requests for charging station availability. For instance, the service forms individualized recommendations according to the device location, charge level, behavior data, and other device conditions. The service then communicates recommendations to enable output of the recommendations at corresponding devices. Recommendations can provide information regarding charging station locations as well as the type of power source, charging capabilities, costs to charge, and other factors. Based on the recommendations, users are able to make intelligent and informed decisions regarding when and where to recharge their devices.

    Abstract: The techniques and systems described herein implement direct memory access in association with a wireless data transfer. In one example, data units are received at a device and it is determined that the data units have been transferred using low-power consumption data transfer and that the data units are to be directly stored in a predetermined memory (e.g., a dedicated memory) of the device. In another example, a first device provides an instruction to a partner device to store data in specific storage location(s) so that the data can be retrieved from the specific storage location(s) without interrupting a main processor of the partner device. The data may also be directly stored in the predetermined memory of the first device without interrupting a main processor of the first device.

    Abstract: A device and method for managing communication frequencies, including generating a geographical grid with a plurality of cells and allocating communication frequencies to the cells. Each of the communication frequencies is used for communication between a satellite and a ground device or ground IoT modem. A communication frequency allocated to one cell is different from the communication frequencies allocated to each of the immediately surrounding cells. A set of communication frequencies is selected for communication between the satellite and ground devices based on a ground track of the satellite. The selected set is transmitted to the satellite to communicate with the ground station located in a cell with the communication frequency allocated to that cell.

    Abstract: A computer system that includes a plurality of compute clusters that are located at different geographical locations. Each compute cluster is powered by a local energy source at a geographical location of that compute cluster. Each local energy source has a pattern of energy supply that is variable over time based on an environmental factor. The computer system further includes a server system that executes a global scheduler that distributes virtual machines that perform compute tasks for server-executed software programs to the plurality of compute clusters of the distributed compute platform. To distribute virtual machines for a target server-executed software program, the global scheduler is configured to select a subset of compute clusters that have different complementary patterns of energy supply such that the subset of compute clusters aggregately provide a target compute resource availability for virtual machines for the target server-executed software program.

    Abstract: A computing system including a processor configured to receive packet preamble binary data and packet header binary data associated with a satellite. The processor may generate a simulated signal that encodes the packet preamble binary data and the packet header binary data. The processor may receive a satellite downlink signal. Within each of a plurality of sample intervals of the satellite downlink signal, the processor may compute a respective correlation between the satellite downlink signal and at least a portion of the simulated signal. The processor may select an identified sample interval of the plurality of sample intervals based at least in part on the plurality of correlations. The processor may decode binary satellite signal data based at least in part on the identified sample of the satellite downlink signal. The processor may output the binary satellite signal data.

    Abstract: The minimization of the amount of power consumed by an electronic device in acquiring or maintaining network connectivity with a network may extend the battery life of the electronic device. When the electronic device has established a communication connection with a wireless access point, the electronic device cycles a network interface controller of the electronic device between a power on state and a power off state without terminating the communication connection. Accordingly, the electronic device powers on a main processor of the electronic device when the network interface controller detects a beacon during the power on state that indicates the wireless access point has a buffered data frame for the electronic device.
