Abstract:
Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products directed to messaging through blockchain networks are provided. Among such methods is a method that may be implemented in a device comprising circuitry, including a transmitter, a receiver and a processor, and may include any of receiving a request to send a message including a message and information indicating a source of the message, a destination of the message and a distributed ledger system; determining a first node associated with a distributed ledger system based, at least in part, the information indicating the distributed ledger system and the information indicating the destination; generating a transaction for the message; and sending the transaction to a second node of the distributed ledger system.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for signaling enhancement to meet low-latency requirements of cloud gaming applications in wireless communication networks are provided. In an example, a method implemented by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) includes transmitting a first message including neural network data and information indicating a first type of neural network data, the neural network data were marshaled into one or more byte arrays before transmission; receiving a first acknowledgement message indicating a second type of neural network data that an Edge device has received; receiving a second message including marshaled data based on the transmitted neural network data and the information; and transmitting a second acknowledgement message indicating a third type of neural network data that the WTRU has received.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for enabling multi-host multipath secure transport with Quick User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Connections (QUIC) are described herein. A method performed by a client endpoint may involve sending, to a network node, a request to establish a QUIC connection with a destination endpoint, the request to establish the QUIC connection including a flow identifier (ID). The method may involve receiving, from the network node, a response including an indication that the request to establish the QUIC connection with the destination endpoint is accepted. The method may involve encapsulating inner QUIC packetized data within outer QUIC packetized data, the inner QUIC packetized data including the flow ID. The method may involve sending, to the network node, the outer QUIC packetized data for forwarding toward the destination endpoint based on the flow ID.
Abstract:
Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products directed to blockchain-enabled model storage, sharing and deployment for supporting federated learning are provided. Among the methods is a method directed to blockchain-enabled storage of distributed learning data that may include receiving information indicating a blockchain storage request, including information associated with a distributed learning task; obtaining information identifying one or more blockchains based on a blockchain storage solution, wherein the blockchain storage solution is based on the information indicating a blockchain storage request; determining blockchain-related instructions based on the blockchain storage solution, wherein the blockchain-related instructions comprise at least some of the information identifying one or more blockchains; and transmitting the blockchain-related instructions to a plurality of distributed participant nodes.
Abstract:
Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, etc. directed to enablers for blockchain-enabled wireless systems are provided. Among the apparatuses, is an first apparatus that may be configured to receive, from a network application, a registration request including information indicating a plurality of application-le vel requirements for a distributed ledger service, including one or more performance requirements, and one or more actions; determine a node of a distributed ledger system to associate to the network application based at least in part on the performance requirement; provide, to each of a one or more computing resources, executable code for conducting one or more of the one or more actions; and send a confirmation of registration to the network application.

Abstract:
Devices, computer readable media, and methods for supporting services at an application service layer (ASL) are disclosed. The ASL may be a machine-to-machine (M2M) services capability layer (SCL). Content functions may interpret the data to generate a semantic description of the data. Semantic information associated with data may be stored. Context aware functions may process the semantic description of the data to generate lower level contextual cues. Context aware reasoning functions may process the lower level contextual cues to deduce higher level context. An application or a second ASL may use the contextual cues and the situational context to trigger an action. The ASL may create a trigger condition based on a received message. The ASL may invoke a function based on detecting a trigger condition. The ASL may perform a command based on a received command. The ASL may use a objective function and feedback to control a device.
Abstract:
Systems and/or methods for providing internetworking among application services layers (ASLs) of different network technologies may be provided. For example, a tunnel anchor point (TAP) may be established. The TAP may be configured to enable communication between a local application in the network and a remote application in a different network. At the TAP, an ASL tunnel may be created to the local application in the network to facilitate the communication. Additionally, a message from the local application may be received where at least a portion of the message may be configured to be provided to a remote ASL and the remote application in the different network to which the local application wishes to communicate. At least the portion of the message may be provided to the remote ASL and the remote application in the different network.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are disclosed for determining context information for one or more peers to be used in a peer discovery and/or peer association process(es) and/or to otherwise facilitate P2P proximity communications. For example, a method for determining peer context information may include receiving a context-aware identifier (CAID). The CAID may include one or more items of context information associated with the peer in addition to an indication of an identity of the peer. A first portion of the CAID may be decoded to determine a first item of context information associated with the peer. The first portion of the CAID may be decodable without having to process a payload portion of the message. It may be determined whether to continue processing one or more of the CAID or the message based on the first item of context information. The CAID may be used in discovery and/or association procedure(s).
