An apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: signal, into a bitstream, information with a file format comprising a minimized image box; wherein the minimized image box contains one or more of: a main image item, or a main item, or a gain map item, or an alpha map item; wherein syntax of the minimized image box indicates at least one of a dimension, codec configuration data, or chroma subsampling shared between at least two of the main image item or the main item, the gain map item, or the alpha map item when present within the minimized image box.
H04N 21/2343 - Processing of video elementary streams, e.g. splicing of video streams or manipulating encoded video stream scene graphs involving reformatting operations of video signals for distribution or compliance with end-user requests or end-user device requirements
There is provided an apparatus comprising: at least one processor, and at least one memory storing instructions that, wherein when the instructions are executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to, for example: receive, from the network node, a configuration message comprising a configuration for transmitting service-associated data packets, wherein the configuration enables the multi-modality indicator to be transmitted with the service-associated data packets, and transmit to the network node, at least part of the service-associated data packets, wherein the service-associated data packets comprise the multi-modality indicator according to the configuration for joint-pro- cessing of the at least part of the service-associated data packets of the at least one data flow.
A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for modeling object behaviors and providing haptic signal mediation through energy propagation in virtual environments. Methods for rendering haptic feedback in a virtual environment can include encoding energy interactions with one or more virtual objects within a virtual scene based on object properties of the one or more virtual objects, interactions with the one or more virtual objects, and energy transformations associated with the one or more virtual objects; propagating energy across the one or more virtual objects; updating energy states of the one or more virtual objects; and mapping the energy interactions of the one or more virtual objects to energy outputs for one or more haptic devices based at least in part on the energy states of the one or more virtual objects.
There is provided a method, apparatus, and computer program for causing an apparatus for a source interworking function interfacing between a source access point and a core network, to perform: receiving, an indication that a user equipment is to be handed over from the source access point to a target access point; making a first determination that determines whether the source interworking function interfaces between the target access point and the core network; and determining, in dependence on said first determination, keying material for use in encrypting communications between the target access point and the user equipment.
Method comprising: determining whether a first edge node of an edge network receives a cache request, wherein the cache request requests the first edge node to cache data received from a movable device; calculating at least one of the following in response to determining that the first edge node receives the cache request: a lifetime for the data, or a maximum topological distance such that the data must not be transmitted from the first edge node in the edge network farther than the maximum topological distance in a direction away from the first edge node; transmitting the data along with the at least one of the maximum topological distance and the lifetime via a first edge of the edge network to a second edge node of the edge network, wherein the first edge terminates at the first edge node and the second edge node.
H04L 67/5683 - Storage of data provided by user terminals, i.e. reverse caching
H04L 67/12 - Protocols specially adapted for proprietary or special-purpose networking environments, e.g. medical networks, sensor networks, networks in vehicles or remote metering networks
One method provided comprises receiving a request to authenticate or authorize a requestor; receiving, from each of plural devices, a respective masked weighted private key and a respective encrypted vote, wherein, for each of the devices, the respective weighted private key is a private key of the respective device weighted with a respective weight; calculating a functional decryption key based on a sum of the masked weighted private keys; computing a sum of weighted votes of the devices by a decryption algorithm using the functional decryption key and the encrypted votes, wherein, for each of the devices, the respective weighted vote is the vote from the respective device weighted with the respective weight; checking if the sum of the weighted votes fulfills a comparison criterion with respect to a threshold; inhibiting to authenticate or authorize the requestor if the sum of the weighted votes does not fulfill the comparison criterion.
H04L 9/32 - Arrangements for secret or secure communicationsNetwork security protocols including means for verifying the identity or authority of a user of the system
