    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method in which a processing system receives data at an edge node of a network that also includes regional nodes and central nodes. The processing system also determines a latency criterion associated with an application for processing the data; the application corresponds to an application programming interface. The method also includes processing the data in accordance with the application, monitoring a latency associated with the processing, and determining whether the latency meets the latency criterion. The processing system dynamically assigns data processing resources so that the latency meets the latency criterion; the resources include computation, network and storage resources of the edge node, a central node, and a regional node in communication with the edge node and the central node. Other embodiments are disclosed.

    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards digital map truth maintenance. Map inputs shared among multiple users of a shared overlay map service can have a range of credibility, from not credible to highly credible. The disclosed digital map truth maintenance technologies can be used to enhance credibility of shared map inputs. Credibility values can be calculated for map inputs, based on any of multiple factors. Map inputs having sufficiently high credibility, such as a credibility value determined to be above a threshold value, can be shared among multiple mobile devices.

    Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed to modeling network systems. For example, a method described herein can include receiving request data representative of a planning request for a network equipment project applicable to network equipment that is part of a network. Further, based on the request data and a logical inventory model of resources, the method can include identifying a logical process model for the network equipment project, corresponding to characteristics of service equipment applicable to the network equipment project. The method further includes transforming the logical process model into a physical process model that references the service equipment applicable to the network equipment project, and based on the request data and the physical process model, facilitating, for the network equipment project, the service equipment.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing intelligent power distribution. A distribution point unit is connected to a plurality of user units in a telecommunications system. A loss of power to the distribution point unit is detected. It is determined that at least one user unit has backup power. Based on a determination that at least one user unit has backup power, a power mode for the distribution point unit is selected. The power mode is implemented on the distribution point unit.

    Abstract: Cloud simulation or validation system allows for the simulation of a future node that may be deployed on a piece of hardware. The system may attempt to simulate the operating system for node-A on top of the hardware for node-A, including basic network connectivity. When a host is booted up with the simulated configuration, validation scripts may be run to verify that the site is correctly prepped for cloud deployment. With its pre-staged RAM-based OS temporarily loaded into the host's RAM memory, any set of OS-based scripts, tools or binaries, may be executed for simulation and validation based upon the intended role of the host onto which the cloud simulation or validation system configuration is loaded.
