LOW-POWER DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240196324 titled 'LOW-POWER DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING

Simplified Explanation:

The patent application describes a processor that offloads tasks to a network node, enters a power-saving mode, and wakes up at a predetermined time to check for responses from the network node.

  • The processor determines when to offload a task to a network node.
  • It sends an offload request to the network node with the size of the expected response and a latest receipt time.
  • The processor calculates a wakeup time earlier than the latest receipt time.
  • It enters a power-saving mode until the wakeup time.
  • The processor exits the power-saving mode at the wakeup time.
  • It monitors a communication channel for the expected response until the latest receipt time.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Task offloading to a network node.
  • Power-saving mode implementation.
  • Scheduled wakeup time for checking responses.
  • Efficient utilization of resources.

Potential Applications:

This technology can be applied in:

  • Mobile devices.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
  • Cloud computing environments.

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient task management.
  • Energy conservation in devices.
  • Timely response handling.

Benefits:

  • Improved performance.
  • Energy efficiency.
  • Enhanced user experience.

Commercial Applications:

Title: "Efficient Task Offloading and Power Management Technology for Mobile Devices" This technology can be utilized in:

  • Smartphone applications.
  • IoT device management systems.
  • Cloud computing services.

Prior Art:

Prior research may include studies on:

  • Task offloading strategies.
  • Power-saving modes in devices.
  • Network communication protocols.

Frequently Updated Research:

Stay updated on:

  • Power management techniques in mobile devices.
  • Task offloading optimization strategies.

Questions about Task Offloading and Power Management Technology:

1. How does task offloading benefit device performance? 2. What are the implications of power-saving modes on user experience?


Original Abstract Submitted

a processor has circuitry that executes instructions to cause a user equipment (ue) to perform operations. the operations include determining to offload a task to a network node. the operations include transmitting an offload request to the network node, wherein the offload request comprises a size of an expected response and a latest receipt time. the operations include determining a wakeup time that is earlier than the latest receipt time. the operations include entering a power-saving mode until the wakeup time. the operations include exiting the power-saving mode at the wakeup time. the operations include monitoring a communication channel for the expected response from the network node until the latest receipt time. also disclosed are a ue and a method.
