Publication number: 20230115664Abstract: A method includes managing, by a computer processing unit (CPU) in a first enclosure, a computing task. The method further includes determining, by a controller, that the computing task requires an additional resource. The controller selects an available resource from a pool of available resources in the first enclosure and in a second enclosure by comparing weighted paths between the first CPU and the available resources. Data is transferred between the CPU and the selected available resource to assist with the computing task.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2021Publication date: April 13, 2023Inventor: Marc T.

Publication number: 20140229659Abstract: A semiconductor chip is described having a controller having a point-to-point link interface and non volatile memory interfacing circuitry. The point-to-point link interface is to receive a command from a system that identifies a particular non volatile memory. The non volatile memory interfacing circuitry is to receive and forward the command to the non volatile random access memory.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2011Publication date: August 14, 2014Inventor: Marc T.

Publication number: 20130311434Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for limiting storage of duplicate data in a storage back-end. In an embodiment, a storage device of the storage back-end receives from a storage front-end a write command specifying a write of data to the storage back-end. In another embodiment, the storage device calculates and provides to the storage front-end a data signature for data which is the subject of the write command. Based on the data signature provided by the storage device, a deduplication engine of the storage front-end determines whether a deduplication operation is to be performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2011Publication date: November 21, 2013Inventor: Marc T.

Patent number: 6430164Abstract: A communications apparatus for enabling communications among networks, buses, devices and other subsystems having different communication requirements is provided. The communications apparatus offers an open architecture for interoperability among diverse subsystems. The communications apparatus is particularly applicable in a vehicle. In one embodiment, a portal apparatus located remote from the vehicle facilitates communications with the communications apparatus, particularly where the vehicle is part of a vehicle fleet. The communications apparatus includes a common module that has at least one protocol by which disparate subsystems can communicate with each other. One or more managers can be defined as being part of the common module. The disparate subsystem managers provide the necessary interfacing to enable the disparate subsystems to communicate between and among each other using the common module. Each such manager has dedicated functionalities to facilitate communications.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 1999Date of Patent: August 6, 2002Assignee: Cellport Systems, Inc.Inventors: Marc T.
