Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an apparatus, comprising a first memory controller, to receive a signal from a component coupled with the first memory controller, where the signal indicates that data is to bypass a volatile memory device coupled with the first memory controller and be written to a byte-addressable write-in-place persistent memory device coupled with the first memory controller; determine, in response to the received signal, whether a write buffer in a second memory controller, coupled with the first memory controller, is empty; direct, if the write buffer is empty, the data to the write buffer for temporary storage prior to storage in the persistent memory device, to bypass the volatile memory device; and direct, if the write buffer is not empty, the data to the volatile memory device.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for a thermal protection apparatus comprising a substrate including surfaces defining one or more channels and an array of openings adjacent to the one or more channels and an outer layer coupled to the substrate. The outer layer may include a plurality of opaque elastic regions positioned adjacent to the array of openings. Additionally, a fluid may be positioned within the one or more channels. In one example, the plurality of opaque elastic regions are expandable to become protrusions including one or more of a rectangular shape, a donut shape or a dome shape.

Abstract: Technologies for managing access to image data streams generated by a plurality of image sensors of an image sensor array include a camera driver module. The camera driver module limits exposure to a user to all but one of the image sensors of the image sensor array. In some embodiments, the image sensor array may include a single primary image sensor that is exposed to the user and one or more secondary sensors that are not exposed to the user. In other embodiments, the image sensor array may include more than one primary image sensor and any number of secondary image sensors. In such an embodiment, only one of the primary image sensors are exposed to the user, and none of the secondary image sensors, if available, are exposed to the user. Other embodiments are described herein and claimed.

Abstract: A method and system for manages mapping of universal serial bus (USB) connectors to a plurality of USB host controllers. The method determines an enumeration of USB connectors in a system, identifying USB host controllers in the system, generating a grouping for a USB connector with USB host controllers, and configures USB routing in the system to map the USB connector with the USB host controllers according to the grouping.

Abstract: Embodiments may include systems and methods for managing multiple ports of a computing interface. A computing device may include a connector with a power port and a data port. A connector manager may identify whether a port partner is coupled to the connector, identify an inquiry related to a status of the connector, where the inquiry may be received from a BIOS of the computing device. In addition, the connector manager may generate an indication of the status of the connector, and further transmit the indication of the status of the connector to the BIOS. A BIOS may identify that a data device coupled to the connector through a port partner is to be initialized, and further transmit to a connector manager an inquiry related to a status of the connector, before initializing the data device. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented systems and methods for transmitting and receiving audio and video data. A method may include determining, by a device including one or more processors and a plurality of antennas, that the device is in an active state. The method may also include determining, via the plurality of antennas in response to a location request, location information associated with the device. Furthermore, the method may include receiving, from at least one sensor component included in the device, sensor information associated with the device. Additionally, the method may include determining, based at least in part on the location information and the sensor information, a scan rate adjustment event. The method may further include adjusting a current scan rate of the first antenna to a second scan rate.
