Address resolution information acquisition (ARIA) for a computing device is described. In some examples, ARIA includes a computing device (e.g., an Internet of things (IoT) node, a gateway, a server) determining, without use of an address resolution protocol (ARP), address resolution information of one or more other computing devices (e.g., a IoT node, a gateway, a server). In one example, the computing device uses data flowing to or from its application layer, transport layer, or network layer to determine address resolution information of another computing device. The address resolution information can comprise one or more of a link layer address (e.g., a media access control (MAC) address) and an Internet layer address (e.g., an Internet protocol (IP) address). Usage of a cache for storing or deleting address resolution information can also be part of ARIA.

Address resolution information acquisition (ARIA) for a computing device

A technique for power aware event scheduling including receiving, from a wireless access point, an indication of a scheduled reference event, determining, for an application event, an amount of time to generate data for a wireless uplink transmission associated with the application event, receiving timing information, the timing information indicating an amount of time to divide the generated data into data frames, determining an adjusted time based on the amount of time to generate data, the received timing information, and the scheduled reference event, triggering the application event at the adjusted time, and transmitting the data frames based on the scheduled reference event.

Power aware event scheduling

A method includes determining to send a data packet from a first transceiver to a second transceiver, the data packet configured according to a TCP, determining, at the first transceiver, to trigger the second transceiver to send an ACK packet according to a delayed ACK protocol, sending, from the first transceiver, the data packet with an additional packet responsive to determining the triggering of the ACK packet, and receiving, at the first transceiver, the ACK packet from the second transceiver responsive to the additional packet.
