Abstract: Methods and systems for the distributed bulk onboarding of devices onto a Wi-Fi network are provided. A method may comprise receiving, at an onboarding device, Wi-Fi configuration information. Then, it may comprise detecting, at the onboarding device, broadcast information from a plurality of devices that may be onboarded onto the Wi-Fi network, the broadcast information indicating that one or more of the plurality of devices is an onboarding node capable of onboarding another of the plurality of devices. The method may further comprise creating instructions indicating an order in which the plurality of devices may be onboarded, and by which of the one or more onboarding nodes each of the remaining devices of the plurality shall be onboarded, and providing the Wi-Fi configuration information and at least a portion of the instructions to at least one of the onboarding nodes.

Abstract: A system and method for discovering services in an Internet of Things (IoT) environment are disclosed. The method may include providing service-feature information from a consumer app to a query service that is indicative of a service provided by a remotely located provider app and incorporating the service-feature information into resource records of an additional information section of a multicast domain name service (mDNS) message. The message is multicasted to other IoT devices, and a response message is received from at least one provider device. The additional information section of the response message is then analyzed to determine whether a service provided by the at least one provider device meets criteria defined by the service-feature information.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to using a control service to control external access to APIs of IoT devices on a private network. An external application can request access to an API, and in response, the control service can monitor broadcasts from the IoT devices indicating what APIs they have available. If a match exists, the control service can request user authorization to allow the requested access. The user can grant or deny the requested access, and place limitations on the authorized access. The control service uses this information to open a connection between the requesting application and the IoT device having the requested API, and via this connection, the requesting application can access and control the device running the requested API.

Abstract translation: 本公开涉及使用控制服务来控制对私有网络上的IoT设备的API的外部访问。 外部应用程序可以请求对API的访问，作为响应，控制服务可以监视来自IoT设备的广播，指示它们可用的API。 如果存在匹配，则控制服务可以请求用户授权以允许所请求的访问。 用户可以授予或拒绝所请求的访问权限，并对授权访问权限进行限制。 控制服务使用该信息来打开请求的应用程序和具有所请求的API的IoT设备之间的连接，并且经由该连接，请求应用可以访问和控制运行所请求的API的设备。

Abstract: The disclosure relates to conveying state changes from an advertising node to one or more discovering nodes, wherein the advertising node may convey the state changes using small efficient low-level broadcast or multicast advertisements to trigger delivering larger structured data in a manner that may be conceptually similar to broadcasting or multicasting but actually delivered using point-to-point or other delivery mechanisms that may be more efficient and reliable. In particular, the advertising node may the convey state changes using connectionless messaging and a store-and-forward cache in a manner that removes bandwidth and/or size constraints that networks impose on multicast/broadcast datagrams while preserving benefits associated therewith.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for establishing and maintaining communication between two or more communication devices coupled to communication networks. Some specific aspects relate to communication between a plurality of communication devices each of which is coupled to a respective network. Other aspects relate to establishing such communication by way of contact lists maintained and facilitated on systems coupled to the networks. Users of multiple communication networks, such as VoIP, PSTN and wireless, employ multiple communication devices to communicate with their contacts. For example, a VoIP enabled computer is necessary to access contacts on a VoIP network and a mobile or cellular telephone is used to access contacts on wireless and PSTN networks. A contact list, stored on one communication device, in some instances, cannot be accessed from another communication device. For example, a contact list stored in a VoIP enabled computer cannot be accessed from PSTN or wireless phone devices. Various embodiments described herein provide a convenient solution that can integrate contacts stored on different communication devices and make them accessible from a single device.

Abstract translation: 本公开通常涉及用于建立和维持耦合到通信网络的两个或多个通信设备之间的通信的系统和方法。 一些具体方面涉及多个通信设备之间的通信，每个通信设备中的每个通信设备耦合到相应的网络。 其他方面涉及通过在耦合到网络的系统上维护和促进的联系人列表来建立此类通信。 多个通信网络（如VoIP，PSTN和无线）的用户使用多个通信设备与他们的联系人进行通信。 例如，需要支持VoIP的计算机来访问VoIP网络上的联系人，移动或蜂窝电话用于访问无线和PSTN网络上的联系人。 在一些情况下，存储在一个通信设备上的联系人列表不能从另一个通信设备访问。 例如，存储在启用VoIP的计算机中的联系人列表不能从PSTN或无线电话设备访问。 本文描述的各种实施例提供了一种方便的解决方案，其可以集成存储在不同通信设备上的联系人并使其可以从单个设备访问。

Abstract: The disclosure relates to wireless communications. An aspect determines whether or not an attempt to connect to a local wireless network using a given network configuration failed, determines whether or not a previous attempt to connect to the local wireless network using the given network configuration was successful, and if the attempt to connect failed and the previous attempt was successful, switches between a state of retrying to connect to the local wireless network and a state of waiting to receive a new network configuration.

Abstract: A personal network may be established by interconnecting a plurality of satellites as part of the personal network. Each satellite may be configured to communicate with one or more other satellites. On any given one of the plurality of satellites, data indicating a connectivity status for the one or more other satellites is automatically received, and information indicating a capability of the one or more other satellites is automatically received. The given satellite may be configured to enable at least one other corresponding satellite in the plurality of satellites to be made available for use, so that a capability of the at least one other corresponding satellite is made available for the given satellite.

Abstract: To ensure that multicasts from access points sent in response to periodic beacons reach a variety of listening clients that may have longer sleep intervals than an interval between beacons, this disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus for multicasting bursts of frames where a burst number is selected so as to be equal to or greater than a range of common sleep intervals. Further, where multicast frames are re-multicast according to known protocols, the repeated bursts can be offset from the re-multicast start time suggested by the protocol, in order to increase a likelihood that clients with especially long sleep intervals receive the multicast frame.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining relative modification times between a local file stored on a local device and a remote file stored on a remote device are disclosed. The method may include sending, from the local device to the remote device, an inquiry requesting a remote modification time for the remote file on the remote device and receiving a remote modification time at the local device from the remote device. The remote modification time is determined by subtracting a time the file was modified on the remote device from a current time obtained on the remote device. A local modification time is calculated by subtracting the time the local file was modified on the local device from a current time on the local device, and the local modification time is compared to the remote modification time.
