Abstract: A storage system including a storage device comprising a media configured to store data, wherein the storage device is configured to be in a first operating mode or a second operating mode comprising a reduced power mode relative to the first operating mode, a communications port configured to connect to an electronic device, the communications port comprising one or more data lines configured to communicate data to the electronic device and to configure power supplied to the electronic device, and one or more controllers. The one or more controllers are configured to control an operation of the storage device, communicate data to the electronic device using the one or more data lines when the storage device is in the first operating mode, and configure power supplied to the electronic device using the one or more data lines when the storage device is in the second operating mode.

Abstract: Using many speech recognition engines, one can select which one is best at any given iteration of sending a command to a device to be interpreted and carried out. Depending on the context, a different result of many results received from speech recognition engines is chosen. The context is determined based on window history, including rendered webpages represented by URLs previously displayed on the device or windows resulting from executed code on the computing device. In this manner, the operation of the computer is improved as a more accurate result of receiving audio and processing it to text many times is used.
