Abstract: A galvannealed steel sheet ontainabel by a method including the provision of a specific steel sheet, a recrystallization annealing with specific heating, soaking and cooling sub-steps using an inert gas, a hot-dip galvanizing and an alloying treatment.

Abstract: Retention mechanisms for retaining compute components within server racks are described. In one example, a retention mechanism includes a latching component configured to move between a locked position and an unlocked position. The retention mechanism also includes a retaining component configured to position the latching component in the unlocked position. Movement of the retaining component releases the latching component thereby allowing the latching component to move into the locked position.

Abstract: Latching components for retaining rack component cases within server racks are described. In one example, a latching component is installed at an interior surface of a rack component case. The latching component includes a protrusion. The latching component is biased in a locked position in which the protrusion is outside the rack component case. The latching component is moveable from the locked position to an unlocked in which the protrusion is removed from outside the rack component case using an unlatching component.

Abstract: A method for migrating a power shelf between being supplied single-phase power and three-phase power includes coupling a second power adapter to an input of a power shelf of a rack while power is being supplied to the power shelf via a first power adapter coupled to another input of the power shelf. The first power adapter includes a multi-pin connector coupled to the input and three other connectors each coupled to respective single-phase power sources and the second power adapter includes a multi-pin connector configured to couple with the other input and another connector configured to couple with a three-phase power source.

Abstract: A patch panel assembly mounts in a rack on a side of the rack other than the front side of the rack and other than the back side of the rack and fits within a volume of space not occupied by rack slots of the rack. In some embodiments the patch panel assembly includes brackets that articulate into out of the volume of space in the rack in which the patch panel assembly is mounted to allow access to patch cable connectors coupled in the brackets of the patch panel assembly.

Abstract: An expansion card mounting assembly includes a mounting structure and a circuit board coupled to the mounting structure. Expansion cards are mounted on a top side and a bottom side of the circuit board and secured at opposite ends by a moveable plate of the expansion card mounting assembly. The mounting structure includes an opening along a length of the expansion cards that allows air to flow over the expansion cards in multiple directions including a vertical direction. The moveable plate and mounting structure are configured to allow a position of the moveable plate on the mounting structure to be adjusted to mount expansion cards having different lengths in the expansion card mounting assembly.

Abstract: Apparatus for use in display systems are disclosed. In certain implementations, a display apparatus includes a light guide plate for use in a liquid crystal display backlight system. In other implementations, an apparatus for use in a projection display is disclosed including a substantially transparent rectangular prism. In implementations including laser-based light sources, the light guide plate or substantially transparent rectangular prism is configured to reduce the spatial coherence of laser light introduced thereto, thereby reducing speckle. The light guide or prism includes a plurality of light scattering particles suspended therein; alternatively the light guide or prism has a set of scratches on a surface thereof, rending the surface substantially opaque.

Abstract: A DRM system is provided wherein a policy can be established such that the DRM system controls access to a protected content unit, wherein the policy evaluates a condition so that the DRM system adaptively varies the actions that a user is authorized to perform with the protected content unit in response to changes in the condition. The techniques described herein enable a protection level for a protected content unit to be varied in response to changes in one or more condition, such as environmental conditions and/or an historical usage conditions. The techniques described herein also enable a set of policies to be established for a DRM system such that the DRM system controls access to multiple protected content units in accordance with the set of policies. Pursuant to these policies, the DRM system can adaptively vary access to multiple protected content units in response to one or more conditions.

Abstract: An object classification system is provided that receives, from a user, at least one piece of information relating to the object, wherein the information does not directly specify a classification for the object, and that applies at least one rule that classifies the object based, at least in part, on the at least one piece of information received from the user. The techniques described herein also enable classifying an object by, in response to a request from at least one application to access the object, applying at least one rule that dynamically classifies the object.

Abstract: An anchor holds a variety of mooring system elements, including processor-controlled cable brakes, prior to deployment of the anchor. The anchor is configured to automatically deploy the elements of the mooring system into a desired underwater configuration. A method of deploying an ocean anchor includes controlling cable brakes and results in the elements of the mooring system being deployed into a desired underwater configuration.

Abstract: A method of controlling distribution of a segment of encrypted electronic information is presented. A key server receives a protected copy of a decryption key for the segment. The segment is retrieved at a user location. The protected copy of the decryption key is accessed. In response to the accessing, the segment is decrypted using the accessed copy of the decryption key at the user location. The accessed copy of the decryption key is destroyed at the user location in response to the decrypting. The decrypted segment is displayed in response to the decrypting. The decrypted segment is destroyed in response to the displaying.
