Abstract: An information processing system (TS) includes: a set of information processing devices forming a plurality of electrical circuits (C1, C2, C3 . . . Cn) supplied with power via a power supply source (S), cooling elements (MR) being placed near at least part of the electrical circuits; at least one Stirling engine, the cooling elements (MR) of which form a hot source and produce a mechanical movement (Mvt) on the basis of a temperature differential (?T) between the hot source and a cold source (SF); and a generator (G) providing an electric current (iG) on the basis of the mechanical movement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for managing a supercomputer (SC) comprising a set of components (C1, C2, C3 . . . C6) comprising a step of generating notifications (N) by sensors associated with said components; a step of processing said notifications by a hierarchy of modules, said notifications forming incoming events for the modules of lower hierarchical level of said hierarchy, and each module comprising at least one correlation engine for correlating incoming events and generating outgoing events transmitted to the modules of higher level within said hierarchy as incoming events; a step of generating alarms (A), on the basis of the outgoing events generated by the modules of higher hierarchical level within said hierarchy.

Abstract: A method for plugging into a connector (6) of a chassis (2), an electronic board (3) housed in a unit (10) of an electronic module (1), involving: rectilinear translation of the module (1), relative to the chassis (2), in a first direction (H) so as to insert module (1) into the chassis (2), rectilinear translation of the board (3), relative to the chassis (2), in a second direction (V) different than the first direction (H), so as to plug the board (3) into the connector (6), the rectilinear translation of the board (3) in the second direction (V) in relation to the chassis (2) also being a rectilinear translation of the board (3) in the second direction (V) relative to the housing (10) of the module (1).

Abstract: A data-processing system (DTS) includes a central hardware unit (CPU) and an additional hardware unit (HW), the central hardware unit (CPU) being adapted to execute a task by a processing thread (TM), and to trigger offloading of execution of a first part (P1a, P1b, P2) of the task to the additional hardware unit (HW); and wherein the additional hardware unit is adapted to call on functionalities of the central hardware unit (CPU), triggered by the first part, and the central hardware unit (CPU) executes a second part (P2) of the task forming a sub-part of the first part by a service processing thread (TS).
