Device-to-device tapping service layer

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe device, methods, computer-readable media and system configurations for providing a device-to-device (“D2D”) tapping service (“DTS”) layer. In various embodiments, a DTS layer of a communication stack of a computing device may receive, from an application executing within an application layer of the communication stack, a request for a resource. In various embodiments, the DTS layer may determine whether the resource is available locally on the computing device. In various embodiments, the DTS layer may issue a domain name system (“DNS”) request through a network layer of the communication stack to facilitate transparent access by the application to the resource on a remote computing device, where it is determined that the resource is unavailable locally on the computing device. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
