  • Publication number: 20240000383
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an article of smart clothing which automatically recognizes body configuration and motion. This smart clothing includes inertial motion units which are distal relative to selected joints and also sets of strain sensors which span those joints. The type of energy transmitted through a strain sensor can be electrical energy or light energy. Combined multivariate analysis of data from both inertial motion units and strain sensors provides more accurate recognition of body configuration and motion than data from either alone.

  • Publication number: 20240005778
    Abstract: A remote control device having capacitive touch controls may be configured to enter a sleep state (or mode). For example, the remote control device may be configured to enter the sleep state upon expiration of an interval of time since a most recent button press. The remote control may be configured to awaken from the sleep state when one or more portions of a housing of the remote control are deflected, for example, when a user grasps the remote control to actuate one or more of the capacitive touch controls. For example, the remote control device may include a switch. The switch may include a carbon structure that may be configured to contact an open circuit pad on a circuit board to close the corresponding circuit when the housing is deflected and awaken the remote control device from the sleep state.

  • Publication number: 20240005751
    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor that may determine that a first sound to be outputted responsive to an occurrence of a first event on the apparatus is to be modified, in which the first sound corresponds to a first sound data. The processor may also select, from a pool of sound data, a second sound data that is to be combined with the first sound data, in which the second sound data is associated with an occurrence of a second event on the apparatus. The processor may further combine the first sound data and the second sound data to generate a modified sound data and may use the modified sound data to output a modified sound corresponding to the modified sound data responsive to an occurrence of the first event.

  • Publication number: 20240004711
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for a resource allocation system. The resource allocation system may obtain a corresponding quantity of resources (e.g., memory, processor, storage, etc.) needed to be allocated for each resource class (e.g., for a given performance class) for a particular time period (e.g., for one month). Furthermore, the resource allocation system may track allocation of each class of resources and may predict that some classes of resources will be oversubscribed. Based on the prediction, the resource allocation system may, using a machine learning model, identify supplemental classes for each resource class predicted to be oversubscribed and generate a warning when a resource of a supplemental class is predicted to be used.

  • Publication number: 20240004772
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining and reporting actual utilization of a core of a central processing unit (CPU) of a host. Prior to implementation of aspects of the present disclosure, running a poll querying endpoints of a process for work appears to the host's operating system as busy work (e.g., taking full use of the core for the poll duration). However, only a percentage of the duration of the poll is used to process a task of the process, where the remaining duration of the poll is spent querying the endpoints (idle time) and the core is not performing a task. Accordingly, a core utilization reporting system and method automatically detects the processing time of the tasks of a process, determines actual CPU utilization of the core based on a percentage of the time the core is busy polling (doing effectively no work) versus doing actual work (processing a task).

  • Publication number: 20240004956
    Abstract: A technology is disclosed for maximizing the creation of transaction trace data by multiple, different monitoring data sources like agents having individual volume constraints for created trace data. Trace context data identifying individual transactions and containing shared randomness data is propagated between agents and used in created trance data to maintain transaction identity in trace data fragments and for consistent sampling decisions. Sampling decisions for individual trace data fragments are based on the shared randomness data and on an agent-autonomously defined sampling probability. Values of randomness data and sampling probability are restricted to a limited number, like the values of a geometric series with a common ratio of ½. Shared randomness data and sampling probability are included in created trace data.
