Abstract: An example apparatus determines a size of a dirty region of a video frame; after the size of the dirty region satisfies a threshold: encode the dirty region of the video frame to generate an encoded dirty region; and cause storing of the dirty region in the cache; and after the size of the dirty region does not satisfy the threshold: cause storing of the video frame in a volatile memory that is separate from the cache; and encode the video frame via inter-encoding to generate an encoded video frame.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of video coding comprises receiving at least one frame of a video sequence of an interactive application interface associated with at least one asset displayable on the interface in response to a user action related to the interface. The method includes encoding the at least one frame. The method also includes transmitting the at least one asset and the encoded at least one frame to a remote device. The transmitting operation refers to performing the transmitting regardless of whether a request to display the at least one asset exists. The asset can be a non-persistent asset on the frame only while a user performs a continuous action or maintains a cursor at a specific place on the interface. The asset also can be a persistent asset on the frame in response to a first action and is removed from the display in response to a second action.

Abstract: A machine-learning (ML) scheme running a software driver stack to learn user habits of entry into low power states, such as Modern Connect Standby (ModCS), and duration depending on time of day, and/or system telemetry. The ML creates a High Water Mark (HWM) number of dirty cache lines (DL) as a hint to a power agent. A power agent algorithm uses these hints and actual system's number of DL to inform the low power state entry decision (such as S0i4 vs. S0i3 entry decision) for a computing system.

Abstract: A first circuit to receive from a sensor a thermal condition of a voltage regulator while circuitry comprising the voltage regulator is to regulate delivery of power to a power domain having first and second components. The circuitry is to control a first power consumption rate of the first component based on a first parameter and control a second power consumption rate of the second component based on a second parameter. The first circuit monitors the thermal condition and generates an evaluation result based on a test criterion. A second circuit receives from the first circuit a signal based on the evaluation result. Based on the signal, the second circuit is to signal the circuitry to change the first parameter. An amount of any change to the second parameter based on the evaluation result is different than an amount of change to the first parameter based on the evaluation result.

Abstract: Examples include techniques to reduce memory power consumption during a system idle state. Cores of a single socket multi-core processor may be mapped to different virtual non-uniform memory architecture (NUMA) nodes and a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) may be partitioned into multiple segments that are capable of having self-refresh operations separately deactivated or activated. Different segments from among the multiple segments of DRAM may be mapped to the virtual NUMA nodes to allow for a mechanism to cause memory requests for pinned or locked pages of data to be directed to a given virtual NUMA node.
