Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for offloading services and functionalities from a main host central processing unit (CPU) of a computing device to a dedicated power-efficient offload engine, thereby enabling a longer battery life for the device and an enhanced set of features.
Abstract:
A system and method for the distribution of time signals is available for devices with multiple communication cores. An embodiment may or may not use a centralized manager for the management of time preservation. When a communication core in a multiple communication core device requires timing information, it may request the time information from another communication core or from the centralized manager. The centralized manager, if present, can obtain time information from an external source or from one of the communication cores. The result can be reduced power consumption at a lower cost.

Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of time preservation. For example, an apparatus may include a time controller to preserve a time of a clock of a mobile device based on signals received by the mobile device from less than four location origin transmitters, the time controller is to determine the time based on a position of a location origin transmitter of the less than four location origin transmitters and one or more parameters relating to a transmission path between the location origin transmitter and the mobile device.
Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of simultaneous connectivity to location origin transceivers. For example, a transceiver may be configured to simultaneously maintain a plurality of simultaneous Media-Access-Control (MAC) layer connections with a plurality of location origin beacon transceivers (LOBTs), and to communicate wireless communication signals with the plurality of LOBTs via the plurality of simultaneous MAC-layer connections.
