Abstract: An exemplary edge compute orchestration system that is communicatively coupled with a set of edge compute nodes in a communication network accesses performance data aggregated by a particular edge compute node of the set. The performance data includes a performance metric and geolocation data detected by a user equipment (UE) device communicatively coupled to the communication network. The edge compute orchestration system integrates the performance data into a geolocation-indexed performance dataset representative of detected performance metrics, indexed by geolocation, for the communication network. Then, based on the geolocation-indexed performance dataset, the edge compute orchestration system selects the particular edge compute node for performance of an edge compute task. Corresponding systems and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A device obtains previously created data content. The device unmasks and extracts one or more chain of custody blocks stored in association with the data content. The one or more chain of custody blocks includes chain of custody data identifying who, when, where, and, with what hardware and/or software, created or edited the data content. The device analyzes the one or more chain of custody blocks and validates an origination of the data content based on the analysis of the one or more chain of custody blocks.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a machine learning-based resource management service is provided. A network device obtains network and end device information, and uses machine learning to determine whether to adjust an auto-scaling rule pertaining to the provisioning of an application service. The network device generates a modified auto-scaling rule based on the analysis.

Abstract: A device may receive historical network behavior data associated with a network that includes network devices and may receive historical weather data associated with a geographical location of the network. The device may receive historical action data identifying historical actions taken for the network in response to the historical weather data, and may train a correlation model, with the historical network behavior data, the historical weather data, and the historical action data, to generate a trained correlation model. The device may receive a weather event forecast associated with the geographical location, and may process the weather event forecast, with the trained correlation model, to determine an anticipated behavior of the network in response to the weather event forecast. The device may process data identifying the anticipated behavior, with the trained correlation model, to identify actions to take in response to the anticipated behavior and may perform the actions.

Abstract: A system comprises a Network Exposure Function (NEF) and a Session Management Function (SMF). The MF may be configured to: receive, from the NEF, a first request to subscribe to a notification service offered by the SMF; send a create session request to a User Plane Function (UPF); receive a first response from the UPF to the create session request, wherein the first response includes binding information that pertains to an association between a User Equipment device (UE) identifier (ID) and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses; and send, as part of the notification service, a message that includes the binding information to the NEF.

Abstract: An exemplary edge compute orchestration system that is communicatively coupled with a set of edge compute nodes in a communication network receives a task assignment request generated by a user equipment (“UE”) device coupled to the network. The request is associated with an edge compute task that is to be performed in furtherance of an application executing on the UE device. The system also accesses node characterization data for the set of nodes and manages a node selection policy configured to facilitate a balancing of node performance and node efficiency when assigning edge computing tasks to different nodes in the set. The system selects a node for performance of the edge compute task from the set of nodes in response to the request, based on the node characterization data, and in accordance with the selection policy. The system assigns the edge compute task to be performed by the selected node.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a edge content distribution service is provided. The edge content distribution service may include the distribution of static content among multi-access edge computing networks. The edge content distribution service may include tiered overlay networks that are correlated to performance metrics associated with application services, static contents of the application services, and/or the acquisition and delivery of the static contents. The edge content distribution service also consider available network resources at the multi-access edge computer networks and the overlay networks of the tiered architecture.

Abstract: An exemplary edge compute orchestration system that is communicatively coupled with a set of edge compute nodes in a communication network receives a performance test assignment request generated by a user equipment (“UE”) device coupled to the network. In response, the system assigns the UE device to perform a performance test to detect a performance metric for a particular edge compute node selected from the set of edge compute nodes. Subsequently, the system accesses performance data including the performance metric and geolocation data corresponding to the performance metric and representative of a geolocation of the UE device during the performance of the performance test. The system integrates the performance data into a geolocation-indexed performance dataset representative of detected performance metrics, indexed by geolocation for the communication network. Corresponding systems and methods are also disclosed.
