Abstract: Development of machine learning models and applications tends to be iterative and complex, made even harder because most of the necessary tools are not built for the entire machine learning lifecycle. Introduced here is a data platform that is able to accelerate time-to-value by enabling users to utilize applied machine learning prototypes (“AMPs”) made by others. These AMPs may be extendable, by the data platform, to new datasets, allowing machine learning to be developed and deployed more rapidly.

Abstract: Technologies for power-aware scheduling include a computing device that receives network packets. The computing device classifies the network packets by priority level and then assigns each network packet to a performance group bin. The packets are assigned based on priority level and other performance criteria. The computing device schedules the network packets assigned to each performance group for processing by a processing engine such as a processor core. Network packets assigned to performance groups having a high priority level are scheduled for processing by processing engines with a high performance level. The computing device may select performance levels for processing engines based on processing workload of the network packets. The computing device may control the performance level of the processing engines, for example by controlling the frequency of processor cores. The processing workload may include packet encryption. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Examples herein relate to assigning, by a system agent of a central processing unit (CPU), an operating frequency to a core group based priority level of the core group while avoiding throttling of the system agent. Avoiding throttling of the system agent can include maintaining a minimum performance level of the system agent. A minimum performance level of the system agent can be based on a minimum operating frequency. Assigning, by a system agent of a central processing unit, an operating frequency to a core group based priority level of the core group while avoiding throttling of the system agent can avoid a thermal limit of the CPU. Avoiding thermal limit of the CPU can include adjusting the operating frequency to the core group to avoid performance indicators of the CPU. A performance indicator can indicate CPU utilization corresponds to Thermal Design Point (TDP).

The bone plate includes a body having a first surface, a bone-engaging surface, and a plurality of through-openings. The bone plate hole cap includes a body having a first surface, a second surface, and a peripheral surface.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to power control mechanisms for workload processing systems, and in particular, multi-scale power control technologies that can be used to reduce the overhead of workload processing systems. The disclosed power control mechanisms operate on multiple timescales including a slow timescale and a fast timescale. Separate control loops (or governors) are used for the slow and fast timescales where each control loop includes its own trigger mechanisms and configurable operational policies. The operational policies for slow timescale control loop can be trained separately using various machine learning techniques while the operational policies for the fast timescale control loop can be simple and reactive heuristics.
