Abstract: A method for securely terminating a distributed trusted execution environment (TEE) spanning a plurality of work accelerators. After wiping sensitive data from the memory of its accelerator, a root of trust for each accelerator is configured to receive confirmation that the data has been wiped from the processor memory in relevant other accelerators prior to moving on to the next stage at which the TEE on its associated accelerator is terminated. Since the data has been wiped from the other accelerators, even if a third party were to inject malicious code into the accelerator, they would be unable to read out the secret data from the other accelerators since the data has been wiped from those other accelerators. In this way, a mechanism is provided for ensuring that when the distributed TEE is terminated, malicious third parties are unable to read out confidential data from the accelerators.

Abstract: A method for securely terminating a distributed trusted execution environment spanning a plurality of work accelerators. Each accelerator is configured to self-isolate upon determining that the distributed TEE is to be terminated across the system of accelerators. The data is also wiped from the processor memory of each accelerator, such that the data cannot be read out from the processor memory once the accelerator's links are re-enabled. The self-isolation is performed on each accelerator prior to the step of terminating the TEE on that accelerator. An accelerator only re-enables its links to other accelerators once the data is wiped from its processor memory such that the secret data is removed from the accelerator memory.

Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, the render rate is varied across and/or up and down the display screen. This may be done based on where the user is looking in order to reduce power consumption and/or increase performance. Specifically the screen display is separated into regions, such as quadrants. Each of these regions is rendered at a rate determined by at least one of what the user is currently looking at, what the user has looked at in the past and/or what it is predicted that the user will look at next. Areas of less focus may be rendered at a lower rate, reducing power consumption in some embodiments.
