Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer programs for offloading computing tasks to one or more computers, e.g., that implement an edge server. In one aspect, the method can include actions of transmitting, for a user equipment and to the one or more computers, uplink information via an air interface; determining whether the uplink information has been fully transmitted across the air interface; based on determining that the uplink information has been fully transmitted across the air interface, triggering a sleep mode for the user equipment and starting a first timer; determining that the first timer has expired; and based on determining that the first timer has expired, triggering (i) a user equipment wake-up operation and (ii) maintaining a second timer that indicates when the user equipment should enter the sleep mode if result data, to be generated using the uplink information, has not been received.

Discontinuous reception enhancements

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for connections aggregation among related devices for edge computing. Such techniques may include a grouping of related devices as an edge group, and assignment of a proxy device for distribution of edge server discovery information among the edge group.

Connections aggregation among related devices for edge computing

A user equipment (UE) is configured to operate as an edge enabler client (EEC) and is configured to determine one or more application context relocation (ACR) methods supported by an application client (AC) of the UE and transmit, to an edge data network (EDN), a message comprising a first indication that the AC requires service continuity support, a second indication of one or more ACR methods supported by the AC and a third indication of one or more ACR methods supported by the EEC.
