Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system and method, for determining power requirements according to a data connection with a remote server that provides services to support execution of a remote application that corresponds to a local application that executes on the mobile device. The power requirements are compared to a remaining charge of a battery of the mobile device to obtain a comparison, and the remote application, in lieu of the local application that executes on the mobile device according to the comparison. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Method and apparatus for optionally running mobile applications locally or virtually

Methods and apparatus for evaluating the geometric properties of optical fiber preforms, which methods include: providing an optical fiber preform having a longitudinal axis, an outer diameter and a circumference; providing a two-dimensional pattern having a length parallel to the longitudinal axis of the preform and a width greater than the outer diameter of the preform; providing an image capturing device disposed such that the preform is aligned between the pattern and the image capturing device; rotating the preform about its longitudinal axis and acquiring a first plurality of images of the pattern viewed through the preform at at least two different points along the circumference of the preform; and determining at least one geometric property of the preform from the first plurality of images.

Methods and apparatus for determining geometric properties of optical fiber preforms

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system and method, for determining whether to run a local application or a remote application, including retrieving, by a processor of a mobile device, metadata for a remote application that executes on the mobile device, determining power requirements from the metadata for a data connection with a remote server that provides services to support execution of the remote application, calculating if the power requirements for the data connection exceeds a remaining charge of a battery of the mobile device, and executing the remote application responsive to the power requirements for the data connection being less than the remaining charge of the battery. Other embodiments are disclosed.
