Aspects of the present disclosure relate to managing power provided to devices. A first set of radio-frequency identification (RFID) power data can be read, by an RFID reader, from a first RFID tag of a first device electrically coupled to a power supply. The first set of RFID power data can specify a first amount of energy required by the first device if a power loss occurs. An indication that a power loss occurred can be received. In response to the indication that the power loss occurred, the power supply can provide the first amount of energy to the first device.

Power management based on RFID data

A user equipment and method for call filtering is provided. On receipt of an incoming call, the incoming call's telephone number or other caller identifier is determined and then used as a search query in a search engine search. Using natural language processing or text string comparison, text from the search hits is processed by comparing with the stored permitted caller description(s). If a match is found, then a call alert is generated, whereas if not, then the call is blocked.
