Abstract:
There is provided a method including detecting, by an apparatus, a first wireless access option; determining whether or not the first wireless access option shares at least part of a backbone with a second wireless access option; and deciding whether or not to associate with the first wireless access option at least partly on the basis of the determination.
Abstract:
In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus, comprising at least one processor configured to execute a computer executable program stored in a memory comprised in the apparatus, wherein the computer executable program thereby causes the apparatus to at least open a first connection to a data source device, open a second connection to a proxy device, the second connection employing a first protocol and a cross origin resource sharing context, and receive from the proxy device information of the data source device.
Abstract:
A computing device or server receives statuses from devices in a network. The statuses may be determined according to sensor data relating to environmental characteristics, or vital signs of a person or animal. Sound data is generated according to the received statuses, and provided to a computing device, such as one in the vicinity of the devices. The computing device provides audio output reflecting the sound data, such that a user may passively monitor statuses of the devices. The sound data may be further varied according to the proximity of the computing device to the device with which the sound data is associated, indicating to the user which one of a plurality of devices the audio output relates.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for direct control of constrained electronic devices with a remote resource. A method performed in a mobile device is provided. The method includes the mobile device receiving a network address and a smart device identifier from a smart device; accessing a remote resource, such as an external internet application, based on the network address; receiving a command indication, wherein the command indication indicates an action to be executed by the smart device; and causing a transmission of a command to the smart device, wherein the transmission includes the smart device identifier.
Abstract:
Disclosed in this specification is a method comprising inserting an anti-whitened data portion into a data packet that is to be whitened by whitening to yield a whitened data packet for transmission (44) from a first radio communications apparatus (30) to a second radio communications apparatus (10), the anti-whitened data portion having been determined based on anti-whitening data received (43) from the second radio communications apparatus (10) at the first radio communications apparatus, wherein the anti-whitened data portion is obtainable from a specific data block by anti-whitening, the anti-whitening compensating for the whitening so that the whitened data packet comprises the specific data block in non-whitened form.
Abstract:
In an example embodiment, a method for short service discovery includes establishing a connection, by an apparatus, with a wireless device having a subset of service information available as default service information; transmitting, by the apparatus, a request for additional service information available from the wireless device; receiving, by the apparatus, from the wireless device, additional service information available from the wireless device, if the request is authorized by the wireless device; and receiving, by the apparatus, from the wireless device, a subset of service information available from the wireless device, if the request is not authorized by the wireless device.
Abstract:
In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus, comprising a receiver configured to receive a data packet, at least one processing core configured to determine, based on contents of the data packet, a new destination address for the packet, wherein the received data packet does not comprise the new destination address in a header field, the at least one processing core being configured to insert the new destination address into a destination address header field of the data packet, and a transmitter configured to cause the data packet to be transmitted after the new destination address has been inserted. In some embodiments, the new destination address is determined on the basis of a compression context used to compress the data packet.
