Presented herein are methods associated with a Services Delivery Platform (SDP) architecture for a distributed application building blocks, such as microservices, deployment-agnostic. The system includes a central compute node and numerous remote compute nodes. Techniques are provided to “onboard” and assimilate the capabilities of remote compute nodes so that they are an integrated part of the SDP system and can be accessed and used in connection with one or more services provided by the SDP system.

A device may receive a request for a mobile device to obtain an application. The request may include a mobile device identifier for the mobile device. The device may send, to the mobile device, a link to a web page. The device may receive, from the mobile device, a request for the web page. The device may send, to the mobile device, a redirect to a software distribution platform to obtain the application from the software distribution platform. The device may receive a registration identifier for the mobile device after the mobile device obtains the application from the software distribution platform. The device may send, to a message server, a request for a message to be sent to the mobile device. The request may be based on the registration identifier and the application.

Methods, systems, and apparatus are described providing networking engines. Specifically, a method for implementing software containers implementing network engines that may be configured to act in a zero-knowledge environment is described. All information pertaining to the network engine associated with a user that is stored in the container is solely that of a user unless explicitly shared by the user. The containers may be configured to participate in a publish-and-subscribe network in order to share information. In addition, the containers may be provisioned with controls so that global operators may comply with local privacy rules.

A method for transmitting data from a mobile communication device to a remote server across a wireless network is described. The method comprising the following steps. Data is transmitted from an application executing on the mobile communication device using a standard reliable communication protocol. Prior to transmitting the data across the wireless network, receipt of the data is acknowledged, thereby simulating, to the application, receipt of the data by the remote server. Data is transmitted from the mobile communication device to the remote server using an intermediary communication protocol. A mobile communication device and a system implementing the method are also described.

A WLAN device includes a processor implementing a MAC layer and a PHY layer which is coupled to a transceiver including a receive (Rx) chain and a transmit (Tx) chain that is coupled to an antenna. A preamble decode-based receive suspend algorithm has software stored in a memory that is implemented by the processor or by hardware including digital logic. The algorithm responsive to receiving a packet including a Physical Layer Convergence Protocol (PLCP) header, a MAC header, and data, is for analyzing a length field in the PLCP header to determine whether the packet is an undesignated packet and whether there is sufficient time remaining for implementing a turning off and then back on of an analog portion of the Rx chain to avoid missing a next packet. If the undesignated packet and sufficient time are present, the analog portion of the Rx chain is turned off.

A method and electronic device for executing application concurrently with other devices are provided. An address of an external electronic device and a location of an application is obtained. A connection is established with a device using a short-range communication protocol. The application is obtained and executed in conjunction with the device.
