A processing is executed with respect to a key value of a key field included in a sequence of one or more key fields expressing a received intent which is associated with a specific system. Based on a result of the processing, one or more instructions associated with the specific system are generated for one or more control functions controlling an infrastructure for carrying out the received intent.

Transforming intent expressions into commands and configurations

In an embodiment, there is provided a method for optimization of IP traffic between a User Equipment having access to an IP network via an IP Connectivity Access Network, and an IP connection endpoint in said IP network, for an application allowing a choice in said IP connection endpoint, said method comprising at least one step based on a selection of an IP connection endpoint according to end-to-end IP traffic optimization criteria.

Traffic optimization for IP connection over an IP connectivity access network and for an application allowing a choice of IP connection endpoint

In an embodiment, there is provided a method for optimization of application layer traffic carried by an IP connection over a multi-access technology mobile network between a User Equipment UE and an IP connection endpoint in an IP network, the optimization being based on network information provided using a network information service, the network information including path costs capable of indicating preferences in terms of network paths for the IP connection, the preferences in terms of network paths including preferences in terms of access technologies.

Optimization of application layer traffic carried by an IP connection over a mobile network

A method for prioritizing handover targets for scanning by a mobile terminal, MS (), in a wireless network () having a plurality of network elements (to), comprises a network element () receiving a signal from an MS () for which it is the serving network element and the network element detecting the direction from which it receives the signal from the MS. For the detected direction, the network element obtains, from a data store (B) associated with the network element (), probabilities of successful handover to respective different neighboring network elements. The network element () uses the probabilities in prioritizing scanning order of neighboring network elements and sends information about the prioritized scanning order to the MS (). The network may be a WiMAX network in which the network elements are base stations.

Various exemplary embodiments are a method and apparatus for selecting an access solution in a Grid network including one or more of the following: receiving an application request, the application request having an associated application cost; identifying a plurality of Grid endpoints for which the application cost is not more than an amount of available resources at each of the plurality of Grid endpoints; computing, for each of the plurality of Grid endpoints, a lowest cost path to access the Grid endpoint; and selecting, as the access solution, a first Grid endpoint of the plurality of Grid endpoints. Various exemplary embodiments are a method of selecting aback-up access solution in a Grid network including one or more of the following: ordering a first plurality of couples according to one or more metrics; determining a strategy; and calculating a share of resource load for each couple in the strategy.
