Abstract:
Described herein are systems and methods for reducing power consumption in a device while maintaining a wireless local area network connection. An interface processor of a wireless interface is configured to maintain a network connection while an application processor is in a low power mode. The interface processor may awaken the application processor to a high power mode upon receipt of a wakeup signal, loss of network connection, detection of a network suitable for connection, or other pre-determined event.
Abstract:
A system and method is directed to detecting tampering of a computer system's operating system (OS). The OS includes a kernel binary and at least one user level binary. When the user level binary is generated, selected integrity data is also generated. Such integrity data may include, but is not limited to, a digital signature, a hash associated with the user level binary, and the like. In one embodiment, integrity data is also generated for the kernel. The kernel is modified to include the integrity data associated with the user level binary. The kernel further includes a tamper detector that is configured to examine the OS binary against its associated integrity data. If tampering is detected, the tamper detector may provide a message indicating which OS binary may have been modified. The tamper detector may also quarantine the modified OS binary, log the message, and the like.
Abstract:
A method for enabling a first telecommunication device to conduct multiple simultaneous telecommunication sessions through a single carrier connection is provided. A first telecommunication session, which includes a first carrier connection between the first telecommunication device and the mobility server and a second carrier connection between the second telecommunication device and the mobility server, is established. Also, a mid-call signaling channel is established to handle interaction between the mobility server and the first telecommunication device while the first telecommunication device is connected through the first carrier connection. The mid-call signaling channel is also employed to notify the first telecommunication device of an incoming telecommunication session request from a third telecommunication device. The method also includes establishing a second telecommunication session, which includes the first carrier connection between the first telecommunication device and the mobility server and a third carrier connection between the third telecommunication device and the mobility server.
Abstract:
A method for facilitating wireless communication of a client device with a destination telecommunication device is provided. The method includes receiving a first telecommunication signal from the client device by a server managed by an enterprise. The method also includes analyzing the first telecommunication signal to determine if a less expensive telecommunication option is available. The method further includes, the server sending a callback signal to the client device if the less expensive telecommunication option is available. The method yet also includes accepting the callback signal via a non-human initiated response by the client device, thereby establishing a telecommunication connection between the client device and the server. The method yet further includes sending a second telecommunication signal by the server to the destination telecommunication device. The method in addition includes establishing a telecommunication session between the client device and the destination telecommunication device when the second telecommunication signal is accepted.
Abstract:
An arrangement for managing a telecommunication session for a plurality of mobile communication devices that includes at least a first mobile communication device and a second mobile communication device is provided. The arrangement includes a mobility gateway, which is configured to communicate with the mobility client software of the first mobile communication device, wherein the first mobile communication device is a subscriber of the mobility gateway. The mobility gateway includes computer readable code implementing a model configured for collecting and storing environmental data about a set of access points. The environmental data includes data collected during the telecommunication session between the first mobile communication device and the second mobile communication device. The environmental data also includes data collected during previous telecommunication sessions supported by the mobility gateway. The environmental data is employed by the mobility gateway to manage the telecommunication session for the first mobile communication device.
Abstract:
A client device capable of utilizing a plurality of media for facilitating communication. The plurality of media may include a first medium implemented based on a first set of communication standards and a second medium implemented based on a second set of communication standards, wherein the second set of communication standards is different from the first set of communication standards. The client device may include a protocol module for translating a user request into a data set, wherein the user request may pertain to a communication feature among a plurality of communication features. The client device may also include a mapping module for ascertaining a utilized medium that is utilized by the client device, wherein the utilized medium is one of the plurality of media. The mapping module may also convert the data set into at least part of a signal suitable for signaling through the utilized medium.
Abstract:
A mobility architectural arrangement, which includes a set of software modules, is provided. A subset of the set of software modules implements a DiVitas description protocol (DDP), which is configured to transport data packets between applications clients on a handset and application servers within an enterprise. The set of modules includes a client DDP, which is configured to be loaded onto a mobility client of the handset. The client DDP is configured to perform at least one of sending the data packets from a first application client and receiving the data packets from a first application server. The set of modules includes a server DDP, which is configured to he loaded onto a mobility server managed by the enterprise. The server DDP is configured to perform at least one of sending the data packets from the first application server and receiving the data packets from the first application client.
Abstract:
A method for reducing data loss when a client device performs a handoff from a first radio station to a second radio station. The method includes detecting imminence of the handoff using one or more criteria. The method also includes buffering incoming data upon the imminence of the handoff to generate buffered incoming data, the incoming data being addressed to the client device. The method further includes transmitting the buffered incoming data to the client device through the second radio station if the handoff is completed and if the buffered incoming data is not discarded.
Abstract:
Apparatus, and an associated method, by which to route packets of data between a data source node and a data destination node in an ad hoc, wireless network, such as a Bluetooth scatternet. Data routing tables are provided to each node, and header information extracted from a packet header is used by such tables. Routing of a packet of data is effectuated in a hop-by-hop manner to effectuate the communication of the packet from the data source node to the data destination node.
Abstract:
A first communication channel is established between a user device and a server using a cellular network. The user device receives a timeout interval for the first communication channel. The user device transmits a packet to maintain the first communication channel when the user device detects that other data is being transmitted using a second communication channel during the timeout interval.
