    Abstract: A method includes obtaining performance characterization values from endpoints managed by a first fog node at a first hierarchical level in a hierarchy of fog nodes. The method includes changing a first operating characteristic of the wireless network based on the performance characterization values. The first operating characteristic affects the operation of one or more of the endpoints. The method includes transmitting a portion of the performance characterization values to a second fog node at a second hierarchical level in the hierarchy of fog nodes. The method includes changing a second operating characteristic of the wireless network based on an instruction from the second fog node. The second operating characteristic affects the operation of the first fog node and/or other fog nodes at the first hierarchical level. Changing one or more of the first operating characteristic and the second operating characteristic satisfies an operating threshold for the wireless network.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device obtains content data provided by a social media platform to a user of the social media platform. The social media platform selects the content data for the user based on a behavioral model of the user. The device maintains an artificial intelligence-based model that models associations between the content data and interaction data indicative of interactions between the user and the social media platform. The device selects, using the artificial intelligence-based model, an obfuscation action to lower an accuracy of the behavioral model of the user, based on one or more configuration parameters set by the user. The device initiates performance of the obfuscation action.

    Abstract: In one embodiment a method including obtaining metrics regarding a WiFi network and a RAN having overlapping coverage ranges, based at least partly on the metrics, allocating a first adjusted spectrum allocation to a first network, and a second adjusted spectrum allocation to a second network, the first adjusted spectrum allocation decreased from a first current spectrum allocation, and the second adjusted spectrum allocation increased from a second current spectrum allocation, and causing enforcement of the first adjusted spectrum allocation and the second adjusted spectrum allocation, wherein the obtaining, allocating and causing are performed a plurality of times, and wherein in at least one of the plurality of times the first network is the WiFi network and the second network is the RAN, and in at least one other of the plurality of times the first network is the RAN and the second network is the WiFi network.

    Abstract: Devices and methods are discussed herein to track networked electronic devices during the course of their lifecycles. Each electronic device may be provided with a “green passport” by its manufacturer which contains all relevant information concerning the operation of the device during its lifetime. When a new electronic device is coupled to a network, it may emit a uniform resource identifier (URI) which may be received by a server that may operate as a manager for the green passports of devices within its purview. The manager may download the green passport from the manufacturer's server. The manager may verify the authenticity of the URI and/or the green passport to avoid security threats. The manager may monitor the electronic device and issue notifications throughout its lifecycle. At the end-of-life of the electronic device, the manager may issue sustainable disposable information for the device.
