    Abstract: A method includes accessing information identifying user devices, and accessing media consumption data indicating content requests corresponding to the user devices. The method also includes determining expected locations of the user devices based on the information, and determining forecasted content requests based on the media consumption data. The method further includes generating a pre-caching schedule based on the forecasted content requests and the expected locations, and determining that the pre-caching schedule indicates that particular media data is to be provided via a multicast transmission to a first user device and to a second user device. The method also includes sending an instruction to the first user device directing the first user device to store the particular media data. The method includes sending, responsive to a request from the second user device, the particular media data via the multicast transmission to the first user device and to the second user device.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving first image data at an electronic device, and performing a first image recognition operation on the first image data based on a first image recognition model stored in a memory of the electronic device. The method may include sending an image recognition model update request from the electronic device to a server, in response to determining that a result of the first image recognition operation fails to satisfy a confidence threshold. The method includes receiving image recognition model update information from the server and updating the first image recognition model based on the image recognition model update information to generate a second image recognition model. The method further includes performing a second image recognition operation based on the second image recognition model.

    Abstract: A mobile device that incorporates the subject disclosure may perform, for example, obtaining performance characteristics for network segments of a network where the network segments are selected from a group of network segments of the network based on a trajectory of the mobile device. The mobile device can monitor power state transitions of the mobile device, and can predict a future power state of the mobile device based on the monitoring of the power state transitions. The mobile device can determine a target time for sending a request for transmission of a data packet over the network where the target time is determined based on the performance characteristics for the network segments and based on the future power state of the mobile device. The mobile device can schedule a time for sending the request for transmission according to the target time. Other embodiments are disclosed.
