Abstract:
A method for cross-domain service optimization is implemented on a computing device and includes defining at least one key quality indicator (KQI) target for at least one end-to-end (E2E) service, where the at least one E2E service crosses more than one domain of a communications network, receiving an indication of quality of experience (QoE) for the at least one E2E service, based on the indication of QoE, translating the at least one KQI target to at least one set of service optimization instructions for each domain from among the more than one domain, and for said each domain, applying the service optimization instructions.
Abstract:
A method for optimizing tracking areas for user equipments (UEs) is implemented in a mobile network and includes: defining network slices as a function of UE types, where UEs in the mobile network are associated with the network slices according to the UE types, defining network slice specific tracking areas as groups of one or more mobile base stations according to the network slices; receiving a signal from a given UE from among the UEs at a receiving mobile base station from among the one or more mobile base stations, and paging the given UE in a network slice specific tracking area from among the network slice specific tracking areas, where the receiving mobile base station is in the network slice specific tracking area, and the given UE is associated with the network slice specific tracking area according to an associated UE type from among the UE types.

Abstract:
An example method is provided in one example embodiment and may include subscribing to a key distribution service by a plurality of Wi-Fi access points belonging to a same mobility domain; receiving a request from a user equipment to connect to a first Wi-Fi access point of the plurality of Wi-Fi access points belonging to the same mobility domain; determining one or more second Wi-Fi access points of the plurality of Wi-Fi access points belonging to the same mobility domain that neighbor the first Wi-Fi access points; and distributing keying parameters to each of the one or more second Wi-Fi access points. The keying parameters can be associated with 802.11r pairwise master key (PMK) keying parameters.
