Abstract: A device can receive a request to determine a set of navigational directions, and can obtain a set of traffic objects associated with a first map layer. The set of traffic objects can include nodes to identify one or more geographic locations and one or more links to identify one or more geographic areas between the nodes. The device can determine a shortest-path tree by analyzing the set of traffic objects, the shortest-path tree being associated with a static data structure. The device can generate a dynamic data structure that includes the shortest-path tree and a set of additional traffic objects associated with a second map layer. The device can determine a shortest path by analyzing traffic objects associated with the shortest-path tree and the set of additional traffic objects. The device can provide the set of navigational directions to indicate the shortest path.

Abstract: A device may receive content to be provided to a plurality of receiver devices. The device may encrypt the content to form encrypted content. The device may provide the encrypted content to the plurality of receiver devices. The device may determine a plurality of respective latency values for the plurality of receiver devices. A latency value, of the plurality of latency values, may identify a length of time between the device sending information to a respective receiver device, of the plurality of receiver devices, and the information being received by the respective receiver device. The device may provide, to the plurality of receiver devices, a security key for decrypting the encrypted content. The security key may be provided, based on the plurality of latency values, to cause the plurality of receiver devices to receive the security key substantially simultaneously.

Abstract: A device can receive, from a user device, a request associated with a data service that includes one or more service identifiers. The device can determine whether the data service is toll-free by providing, to a server, a validation request that includes the one or more service identifiers. The device can receive a response from the server that indicates that the user device is eligible to use the data service toll-free. The device can obtain an internet protocol (IP) address that is reserved for the data service by using a service identifier to search a data structure. The device can provide the IP address to the user device to allow the user device to use the IP address for a data session. Traffic flow for the data session can be received by another server that uses the IP address to update an account of an entity sponsoring the data service.

Abstract: An approach is provided for network quality assurance. The approach includes identifying a node in a calling path associated with a call between a calling party and a called party. The approach also includes querying call record information associated with the call from the node. The approach further includes analyzing the call record information to determine a successful state or a failure state of the call. The approach further includes recursively querying and analyzing other call record information associated with the call from one or more subsequent nodes based on the successful state, the failure state, or a combination thereof determined for the node, the one or more subsequent nodes, or a combination thereof.
