Service mobility and recovery in communication networks

Abstract: A method improves mobility and service recovery for a user in a wireless communication network. Service information concerning the user is stored in a registrar. A subscription message is sent from a user terminal to the registrar. A header in the subscription message contains a unique indication. In response to the subscription message containing a unique indication in a header, the registrar returns a notification message to the user terminal. The payload of the notification message includes service information for the user to be used by the user terminal for communication services.

Content distribution & communication system for enhancing service distribution in short range radio environment

Abstract: A system for propagating information among wireless communication devices in an efficient manner. More specifically, the invention involves regulating the behavior of a wireless communication device (WCD) between a primarily passive mode where client or slave availability is maximized and a primarily active mode where information propagation or master behavior is maximized. The regulation of the WCD is controlled based on the environment surrounding the WCD, including the devices in effective transmission range of the device, and the current condition of the WCD.

A protocol for neighborhood-established transmission scheduling

Abstract: Scheduling packets are exchanged among neighboring nodes of a computer network. These scheduling packets include descriptions of a transmitting node's 2-hop neighborhood within the computer network, and nodes are able to determine transmission schedules from information received via said scheduling packets. Preferably, the computer network is a synchronized network in which time is dived into a number of frames, each of which are made up of a plurality of slots. In such cases, the exchange of scheduling packets should occur within a first number of the slots of each frame, preferably in a common communication channel. Transmission schedules may be determined, at least in part, because nodes advertise their availability using the scheduling packets. The above-mentioned descriptions may include an identification of received communication times and/or channels, an identification of requested communication times and/or channels and an identification of available communication times and/or channels. The requested communication times and/or channels should correspond to available times and/or channels advertised by one or more nodes of the computer network. In this scheme, the identification of reserved communication times and/or channels should be made after eliminating any conflicting scheduled transmissions for those communication times and/or channels.

System for communicating labeled routing trees to establish preferred paths and source routes with local identifiers in wireless computer networks

Abstract: One or more labeled routing trees (LRTS) are produced at a router of a computer network according to a shortest path determination made over a partial topology graph of the network, which graph is produced according to knowledge of adjacent links of the router and one or more LRTs of neighboring routers. The LRTs of the router may be updated in response to receipt of routing state update messages, and such messages may include local link identifiers assigned by a head of a link to which the identifiers pertain, and node parameters of a tail of the link to which the local link identifiers pertain. The routing state update messages may be transmitted within the network: (i) in response to a new destination node being detected by an existing node within the network, (ii) in response to a destination becoming unreachable by a collection of the existing nodes, (iii) in response to the change in the cost of a path to at least one destination exceeding a threshold and/or (iv) in situations where a routing loop may be encountered among two or more of the nodes of the network (e.g., at times when a path implied in the LRT of the router leads to a loop).

A foldable electronic device and a flexible display device

Abstract: An electronic device, which comprises: at least two parts foldable in relation to each other, which can be turned into a first position and into a second position around a rotation axis; and a flexible display device, which extends over at least two foldable parts, covering them either entirely or partly. The flexible display device comprises: a folded position, to which the display device settles in the first position, and in which it folds around a first direction, which is parallel in relation to the rotation axis; and a curved position, to which the display device settles in the second position, and in which it curves around a second direction, which is transverse in relation to the rotation axis. A flexible display device can also be used with an electronic device.
