Portable information handling systems dynamically allocate resources to anti-malware functions based upon available resources and threat status. Dynamic allocation of resources to anti-malware functions provides a timely and targeted response to specific threats with resources dedicated based upon availability and the impact on other information handling system functions. An adaptive mobile integrity validation system interfaces with plural portable information handling systems to selectively update anti-malware settings as threats emerge.

Adaptive integrity validation for portable information handling systems

The present invention retunes adjustable base station antennas of a wireless communications system in order to improve performance metrics that are determined by measurements and that are associated with sub-sectors within the wireless communications system. The present invention calculates and applies control signals to the adjustable antennas to improve the performance in accordance with the performance metrics. Thus, the present invention obviates much of the labor that is required for retuning the wireless communications system with changing radio conditions.

Apparatus and method for measuring and controlling the performance or an adjustable antenna on a sub-sector basis

The present invention bills a call in accordance with a measured quality of service (QoS) level afforded by the call and specified in a service level agreement. The measured quality of service is determined from a collection of measurements associated with the call. An adjustment factor is determined by a subscriber class of service and the measured quality of service. The adjustment factor is utilized by a billing processor in rating the call.

Method and apparatus for policy-based charging for telecommunications services

Techniques for providing enhanced wireless services such as interactive voice services to a serving mobile switching center which is originating a call for a mobile station that requires such services via the public switched telephone network (PSTN). The serving mobile switching center has a trigger which causes it to respond to a call from the mobile station by sending a message according to the IS 41 protocols to the enhanced mobile switching center that provides the enhanced service. The enhanced mobile switching center responds to the message by associating the contents of the message with a temporary local dialing number (TLDN) and sending a message to the serving mobile switching center that contains the TLDN. The serving mobile switching center uses the TLDN to set up a call via the PSTN to the enhanced mobile switching center, which then uses the content of the message associated with the TLDN to establish which enhanced service is required. It calls the service node for the enhanced service and bridges the call from the serving mobile switching center to the service node. The call provides a voice channel for the enhanced service.
