Abstract:
Power and resource efficiency of a mobile network device are increased. In one aspect, a tail optimization protocol (TOP) enables cooperation between a mobile device and an associated radio access network to eliminate idle periods (e.g., tails) when possible. Various systems and methods described herein can leverage the ability of applications and/or their associated connections to accurately predict a long tail time, from which a mobile device can notify an associated cellular network on such an imminent tail in order to allow the cellular network to immediately release tail resources. Various other aspects provided herein realize TOP via fast dormancy and/or other similar notification mechanisms, which enable a handset or other device to notify a cellular network for immediate resource release.
Abstract:
A method, computer readable medium and apparatus for improving non-uniform memory access are disclosed. For example, the method divides a plurality of stream processing jobs into a plurality of groups of stream processing jobs to match a topology of a non-uniform memory access platform. The method sets a parameter in an operating system kernel of the non-uniform memory access platform to favor an allocation of a local memory, and defines a plurality of processor sets. The method binds one of the plurality of groups to one of the plurality of processor sets, and run the one group of stream processing jobs on the one processor set.

Abstract:
Techniques control traffic transmissions to manage radio resource utilization. When content is being streamed to user equipment (UE) and is at least initially intended to be streamed in real time at a constant bitrate, a communication management component can determine whether the content being transmitted to the UE can be delayed, instead of being transmitted in real time. In response to determining that the content can be delayed, the communication management component can facilitate buffering data and periodically streaming the data to the UE in data bursts to reduce use of UE power and radio resources. When transmitting a visual image to a UE, the communication management component can adjust resolution of a visual image to correspond to screen dimensions of the UE based on information indicating screen dimensions of the UE that can be received from the UE.
Abstract:
A method for optimized route caching includes comparing a destination address of a network packet to a first set of prefixes in a routing cache, and comparing the destination address to a second set of prefixes in a full routing table when a longest matching prefix for the destination address is not found in the routing cache. The method further includes copying the longest matching prefix and a set of sub-prefixes of the longest matching prefix from the full routing table to the routing cache, and forwarding the network packet.
Abstract:
Analyzing mobile device applications within a wireless data network and other related aspects are presented herein. More particularly, described herein is a novel Intelligent Mobility Application Profiling Tool (iMAP) and/or other mechanisms, systems and methods for profiling and benchmarking applications associated with mobile devices in a wireless data network. Various systems and methods described herein expose cross-layer interaction associated with a network device in order to profile an application on the network device with respect to energy efficiency, performance, and functionality. As described herein, radio resource control (RRC) analysis can be performed to infer RRC states associated with a given application, identify tail time, etc. Further, analyzers are employed for various layers, including transmission control protocol (TCP) and/or hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), as well as to analyze communication bursts associated with a given application. Analysis results are subsequently utilized to deliver application profiling results to a user.

Abstract:
A method, computer readable medium and apparatus for hashing wireless traffic are disclosed. For example, the method hashes the wireless traffic uniformly by a plurality of probe servers based on at least one first key to provide a plurality of streams, and hashes at least one output stream of each of the plurality of probe servers uniformly based on at least one second key to provide a plurality of output streams. The method then provides the plurality of output streams to at least one aggregator server.
