Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed such that a WTRU may obtain network operator agnostic wireless access for a service. The WTRU may receive a system information (SI) broadcast from a radio access network (RAN) node. The SI broadcast may indicate that an operator of the RAN node supports service-based network access. The WTRU may send a service request to a virtual service provider to request the service. The WTRU may receive a service response from the virtual service provider. The WTRU may receive a service response from the virtual service provider, the service response indicating a mobile network operator (MNO) to use for obtaining the service and subscription information for accessing the MNO, wherein the MNO is different than the operator of the RAN node. The WTRU may access the MNO to obtain the service.
Abstract:
Methods and systems providing application layer support for one or more sleeping nodes in constrained networks are contemplated. Embodiments contemplate inserting sleep information in a header option or payload of an application layer message. The application layer message may be conveyed in a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) or a constrained application protocol (CoAP). Embodiments contemplate communicating the application layer message to a server, which may serve as a caching and/or buffering proxy.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods and systems for integrating peer-to-peer (P2P) networks with content delivery networks (CDNs). In an embodiment, a method for use in a network storage control peer (NSCP) supporting P2P operation includes receiving swarm stats from a tracker; determining, based on the received swarm stats, a P2P rarity associated with a content piece; and responsive to the determined P2P rarity, transmitting an upload request message to an ingestion gateway, wherein the upload request message indicates that the content piece is to be uploaded to a CDN.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are described for forwarding content delivery network interconnection (CDNI) signaling. A CDNI router content delivery network (CDN) may establish CDNIs with upstream and downstream CDNs. The CDNI router CDN may receive a CDNI route advertisement message from at least one of the upstream and downstream CDNs. The CDNI router CDN may update at least one end-user-based CDNI routing table based on Internet protocol (IP) address blocks in the CDNI route advertisement message. The CDNI router CDN may transmit an updated CDNI route advertisement message to at least one of the upstream and downstream CDNs. At least one of the upstream and downstream CDNs may update at least one end-user-based CDNI routing table based on the end user IP address blocks in the updated CDNI route advertisement message.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed such that a network (e.g., a radio access network, RAN, node) may provide a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) with a service-based network access for a new service. The RAN node may comprise a receiver, a transmitter, and a processor operatively coupled to the receiver and the transmitter. The receiver may be configured to receive a request message from the WTRU. The request message may indicate service-based network access information. The processor may be configured to select a service node belonging to a core network based on information in the request message. The transmitter may be configured to send a response message to the WTRU. The response message may indicate accepted service-based network access information, wherein the accepted service-based network access information is associated with at least one public land mobile network (PLMN) identifier (ID).

Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are provided to implement management of a mobile network computing resources (MNCRs) in, e.g., a core network entity of a mobile network. The core network (CN) entity may detect a condition related to the MNCR. The condition may be indicative of, for example, an overload of a computing resource in the CN entity of the mobile network. Based on the detected condition, the CN entity may generate a cloud computing resource (CCR) request. The CN entity may transmit the CCR request. The CN entity may generate a provisioning request. The CN entity may redirect a service request to the CCR. The CN entity may transfer one or more sessions to the CCR. If a condition detected at the CN entity is a security threat, the CN entity may transfer the sessions to a CCR.
Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to CDNI interconnection at a global level. CDNXs are enhanced to provide logging services associated with bilateral or multilateral agreement with CDNs, where these CDNs are interconnected with other CDNs not using the same CDNX. Moreover, additional functions are added in CDNXs and CDN Interconnection protocols to support CDN capability advertisement, CDN peer discovery, and to bootstrap CDN Interconnection.
