Abstract:
Systems and methods for distributed computing between communication devices. A femto node is treated as a trusted extension of a user equipment and performs processing tasks on behalf of the user equipment. The femto node is also treated as a trusted extension of network servers and performs services on behalf of the network servers. Tasks are thus distributed between the network servers, the femto node and one or more user equipments. The tasks include processing data, filtering incoming messages, and caching network service information.
Abstract:
Adaptive hardware reconfiguration of configurable co-processor cores for hardware optimization of functionality blocks based on use case prediction, and related methods, circuits, and computer-readable media are disclosed. In one embodiment, an indication of one or more applications for possible execution is received. Execution probabilities for respective ones of the one or more applications are received. One or more mappings of the one or more applications to one or more functionality blocks is accessed, and a net benefit of hardware reconfiguration of one or more configurable co-processor cores of a multicore central processing unit for the one or more functionality blocks is calculated based on the execution probabilities and the mappings. An optimal hardware reconfiguration is determined based on a current hardware configuration and the calculated net benefit. The configurable co-processor cores are reconfigured based on the optimal hardware reconfiguration.

Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for machine-to-machine communication are provided. A device receives a request from a requestor. The request requests the device to transmit information to the requestor according to a primary time duration. The device determines at least one secondary time duration within the primary time duration for transmitting the information to the requestor and schedules a transmission time within the at least one secondary time duration to transmit the information to the requestor in response to the request. The scheduling is based on additional information known to the device. A requestor determines a time duration for communicating with at least one device, transmits a request to the at least one device to transmit information to the requestor according to the time duration, and receives in response to the request the information from the at least one device within the time duration.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for low power sensing of wireless access technologies are disclosed. In particular, a mobile wireless device, such as an access terminal, may utilize a lower power circuitry portion that operates at a lower power than active circuitry, such as a primary transceiver. The lower power circuitry portion includes a configurable searcher that is capable of sensing if signals of one or more various wireless access technologies are present. When the wireless device utilizes sleep or idle modes for power savings, use of the lower power sensing circuitry to sense the presence of wireless access technologies, rather than using an awoken higher power primary transceiver for sensing, affords increased power savings. An added ability of the lower power circuitry to be put into sleep or idles modes achieves even greater power savings.
