Abstract: A method of managing a client asset includes configuring client accounts in a first hierarchy of accounts. The client accounts include a first client account and a second client account ranked in the first hierarchy of accounts. A first request to establish a trusted relationship with the second client account of the SaaS platform to share the client asset associated with the first client account is received. The first request satisfies one or more conditions related to the first hierarchy of accounts and the trusted relationship is determined. A second request to perform a communication operation based on the client asset associated with the first client account is received. The communication operation is performed on behalf of the second client account using the client asset associated with the first client account and based on an indication of the trusted relationship between the first client account and the second client account.

Abstract: The invention provides new aliphatic diester-di-acid-containing PEA polymer compositions with significant improvement in hydrolytic degradation rates as compared to aliphatic di-acid-containing PEA polymers. The di-acids used in the invention PEA compositions include non-toxic fatty aliphatic homologs. These molecules inherently contain two-ester groups, which easily can be cleaved by biotic (enzymatic) and abiotic hydrolysis. Additional di-acid-type compounds useful for active polycondensation are ?,?-alkylene dicarboxylates composed of short aliphatic non toxic diols and di-acids. In addition, the invention PEA polymer compositions optionally can include a second monomer, such as a C-protected L-lysine-based monomer, to introduce additional chain flexibility into the polymer. The invention PEA polymer compositions are useful for delivery of bioactive agents when administered internally.

Abstract: A voltage regulator provides power to an information handling system component under management by a controller, such as a Buck circuit managed by a PID controller according to PID coefficient settings. An update module interfaced with the voltage regulator monitors operating conditions of the voltage regulator to update the coefficients used by the controller. For example, changes in the load applied to the voltage regulator and an inductance associated with the voltage regulator are used to periodically compute updated PID coefficients, which are then used by the controller to control the voltage regulator.

Abstract: Control loop ripple voltage in an error amplifier may be the result of a non-linear time varying behavior of a switch mode power conversion process. An inverse waveform replica of the error amplifier control loop ripple voltage waveform may be generated to substantially cancel the non-linear loop dynamics introduced by the control loop ripple voltage. Once the control loop ripple voltage is substantially cancelled the bandwidth of the DC-to-DC converter control loop may be increased for faster loop response thus reducing the need for additional output filter capacitance.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a power converter having a first switched inductor to supply current to a load. A second switched inductor is inductively coupled to the first switched inductor. A control circuit activates the second switched inductor in response to a change in the power requirements of the load, so as to remove energy stored in the first switched inductor and thereby regulate the output voltage of the power converter when load current is stepped downwards.

Abstract: In a method and system for providing isolated power, a flyback controller includes a transformer operable to receive a primary voltage input and generate a secondary voltage output. A switch electrically coupled in series with a primary side of the transformer receives a control signal for controlling a duty cycle of the primary voltage. A controller is operable to generate the control signal responsive to receiving a plurality of inputs from the primary side. The controller regulates the secondary voltage output without receiving feedback input from a secondary side of the transformer by computing the secondary voltage as a predefined function of the plurality of the inputs when the switch is open.
