Abstract
Embodiments described herein relate generally to efficient network-assisted communication between user equipment ("UE"). A first UE may be adapted to determine a plurality of hash values associated with provision of a resource by the first UE. The first UE may further determine a port at which the resource is available to be provided. The first UE may communicate this information to a server. Where a second UE wishes to consume the resource, the second UE may determine a plurality of hash values that correspond to those determined by the first UE. The second UE may transmit these determined hash values to the server. In response, the server may transmit the port and an IP address associated with the first UE to the second UE. The server may further facilitate D2D communication between the UEs for provision of the resource. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
