  • Patent number: 11291972
    Abstract: A method of dissociating hydrogen and oxygen from a water molecule comprises isolating a predetermined volume of water between concentrically-mounted electrodes; applying a magnetic field across the predetermined volume of water, the magnetic field focused radially and attracting diametrically across the electrodes; exciting water molecules in the isolated volume of water to a resonant harmonic frequency; and synchronously applying short burst high voltage, high frequency AC pulse packets to the isolated volume of water to create an electric field. The AC pulse packets have a burst width of up to 1 millisecond and a voltage up to about 10 MV, and generate an oscillating electromotive force which acts on the excited water molecules to dissociate hydrogen and oxygen.

  • Patent number: 6388574
    Abstract: An optical intrusion detection system includes an electromagnetic radiation detector located within the chassis of a personal computer or the like. The EM detector, such as a photodiode or phototransistor, detects EM radiation when the chassis is opened (allowing a person to modify or remove the contents thereof). The EM detector sends a detection signal to a latching mechanism that latches the signal and maintains the signal even after the chassis is closed. A detection component is provided which supplies the detection signal as a data signal to a network administrator terminal coupled to the personal computer where the optical intrusion detection system is installed. A feature of the detection system of the present invention is that intrusion into the chassis is detected silently and without alerting the individual opening the chassis.

  • Patent number: 6370586
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring a computer system with a system management controller is described. The system management controller monitors the status of various system components to determine whether the respective system components are operating within respective predetermined operating ranges. The system management controller is capable of taking corrective action. In one embodiment, a system management controller runs a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stack independent of the system and reports problems to a network server or other remote device. In one embodiment, the system management controller obtains a Media Access Controller (MAC) address and communicates operating faults to the remote device. In an alternative embodiment, the system management controller communicates system component faults to a remote device via a modem or other device.

  • Patent number: 6205547
    Abstract: A system management controller may record and/or modify the state of the computer system's host processor if it fails to execute user level program instructions (e.g., is hung). The system management controller may also be commanded, from a site remote from the computer system, to acquire and/or modify the state of the host processor. The system management controller may also acquire and/or modify the state of the other components coupled to the computer system such as, for example, a modem, a network interface card, a memory, and a bus-to-bus bridge circuit.

  • Patent number: 6049879
    Abstract: Diagnostic to identify power consumption of devices present on a target terminal. In either an automatic or manual mode, the target terminal sets the devices to operate at defined power levels and measures the power consumption of the device at that level. The target terminal reports the power consumption to a master terminal. The diagnostic permits system operators to identify failing devices or drivers from a central, master terminal 100. In a monitoring mode, the present invention permits a system operator to audit power state changes of devices in a target terminal 200 during normal operation. By following each event in the monitoring mode, a system operator may identify possibly inconsistent power management techniques in two or more applications running on the target terminal.
