Abstract: In one example, a method and apparatus for optimizing a software defined network configuration are disclosed. In one example, the method determines a first network relative performance parameter for a current configuration of a network, based on respective weighting profiles associated with services for which the network carries data. The method then determines a second network relative performance parameter for a proposed configuration of the network, based on the respective weighting profiles associated with the services for which the network carries data. The proposed configuration is implemented in the network when the second network relative performance parameter is greater than the first network relative performance parameter.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, providing, by a global node, a model to a group of nodes of a network, the model being associated with determining a configuration of the network for qubits; receiving, by the global node from one or more nodes of the group of nodes, updated model parameters, wherein the updated model parameters are generated by each of the one or more nodes via training of a local model utilizing the model and local data accessible to the particular node of the one or more nodes resulting in local nodes; generating, by the global node, an updated model based on the updated model parameters, the updated model being associated with determining the configuration of the network for the qubits; and providing, by the global node, the updated model to the group of nodes of the network, wherein the updated model facilitates managing distribution and usage of entangled qubit storage in devices of the network as reserve hybrid quantum-classical network capacity for bandwidth and computing. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Measurement procedures are provided for a communication device. For instance, a system that comprises determining a probability value, wherein the probability value indicates a likelihood of a communication device, connected to a first network node device, connecting to a second network node device with attempts below a first threshold. The system can also comprise determining a scanning period interval value based on the probability value, used by the communication device, to adjust a scanning procedure usable for establishment of a connection with the second network node device, and requesting the communication device to utilize the scanning period interval value during the establishment of the connection with the second network node device.

Abstract: In multicarrier networks mobile devices can be distributed amongst carriers based on different criteria. However, prioritization may cause certain devices to end up on a carrier that is not optimal for the network. When there is a deployment of different types of cells (e.g., macro cells, small cells, etc.), the cells can use the same frequency. Consequently, a priority value contained within a system information broadcast message can override the mobile default cell transition procedures and thus select a neighboring cell based on additional criteria. Thus, small cells can be deployed to offload traffic from macro cells in spite of the small cells and macro cells operating in the same frequency band.
