  • Patent number: 11675680
    Abstract: A computing system initialization system includes a BIOS processing system coupled to a computing device via a first I/O access connection, to a BIOS memory system via a second I/O access connection that is a relatively higher speed I/O access connection than the first I/O connection, and to a BIOS module. The BIOS processing system retrieves device data from the computing device via the first I/O access connection, stores the device data in the BIOS memory system via the second I/O access connection, and performs initialization operations subsequent to storing the device data in the BIOS memory system. During the initialization operations, the BIOS processing determines that the BIOS module requires the device data and, in response, retrieves the device data from the BIOS memory system via the second I/O access connection, and provides the device data that was retrieved from the BIOS memory system to the BIOS module.

  • Patent number: 11657305
    Abstract: A system for generating algorithmic models comprising a function module to generate a desirability function, an automated machine learning module, and a UI module. The desirability function defines a single desirability value based on an algorithmic model accuracy criteria, criteria for algorithmic model quality, criteria for model fidelity, and criteria for the benefits and cost of model deployment. Specific hard and soft constraints regarding these and other user-defined criteria can also be specified by the user. The automated machine learning module generates an algorithmic model by training the algorithmic model against a model data set, identifying the model with the greatest desirability with respect to all criteria as combined via the desirability function. The UI module generates a user interface to display the overall desirability as well as all model criteria configured by the user. The displayed criteria and desirability are selectable and definable.

    Abstract: A computing system initialization system includes a computing device that is coupled to a management device and that includes a processing system having at least one register storing debug-message-display-determination instructions, and a memory system that is coupled to the processing system and that includes Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to provide a BIOS engine. The BIOS engine begins initialization operations and, during those initialization operations, generates at least one first debug message. The BIOS engine then accesses the at least one register included in the processing system to execute the debug-message-display-determination instructions and, in response, determines that the at least one first debug message should be displayed. In response, the BIOS engine transmits the at least one first debug message to the management device such that the management device displays the at least one first debug message.
