  • Publication number: 20240211141
    Abstract: Various embodiments include methods for controlling memory utilization to accommodate changes in memory accessibility due to memory refreshes include controlling bandwidth of at least one processor based on a refresh rate of a memory. Some embodiments may include receiving the refresh rate of the memory at a memory controller, and determining whether the refresh rate of the memory violates a high or low memory refresh rate threshold, sending an instruction configured to reduce or restore the bandwidth of the at least one processor in response to the determination. In some embodiments the methods may be performed by a quality of service manager, which may be part of a memory controller.

  • Patent number: 11327846
    Abstract: In accordance with various embodiments, described herein are systems and methods for enabling backup and recovery of cloud services (services) in a cloud computing environment (cloud environment). The techniques described herein can be used, for example, to facilitate restoration of a service that may have been originally provisioned as part of a user system/environment, within the cloud environment, and was subsequently lost due to accident deletion of the service, or cloud account termination. A service archive, created during a backup process, includes an archive file that contains the artifacts that were installed and/or created when the service was provisioned; and a metadata file that contains the current state information for the service when the backup was performed. During a recovery process, a lost service can be provisioned within the user system/environment, using the contents of the service archive, irrespective of whether the service itself still exists within the user system/environment.

  • Patent number: 10490830
    Abstract: A method for enriching the oxygen fed to a fuel cell cathode intake comprises receiving at the cathode intake an oxidant from the air, storing oxygen in an adsorber coupled to the cathode intake, and adding the stored oxygen from the adsorber to the oxidant at the cathode intake during high current density operation. A fuel cell system comprises a membrane, an anode on one side of the membrane, and a cathode, coupled to a blocking member, on a second side of the membrane. The cathode comprising an intake configured to allow an oxidant to flow through the cathode, and an outlet configured to discharge unreacted oxygen from the cathode, an adsorber, coupled to the blocking member, configured to store oxygen for adding to the oxidant flowing through the cathode intake during high current density operation.
