Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for providing for trust during startup of an information handling system (IHS) are disclosed. When an IHS starts up, data may be read into memory and used by a processor of the IHS to begin execution of a startup management entity that places the IHS into a desired operating system. To reduce the likelihood of the data used for IHS startup causing the IHS to enter an undesired state (e.g., due to data corruption or intentional action), the data may be verified prior to be being read into memory. If the data is unverifiable, then corrective action may be taken.

Abstract: A closed-loop system for blood pressure control that accounts for various mechanisms of the cardiovascular system. In some example cases, a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model of the cardiovascular system's response to cardiovascular system actuators, such as vasoactive drugs, is generated. Two example actuators are employed in the example framework: phenylephrine, to raise blood pressure, and nicardipine, to lower blood pressure. The pharmacodynamic components employs a two-element Windkessel model. A model predictive control framework is built based on the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and removing artifacts from electrodermal activity (EDA) data are described herein. A method includes identifying artifacts in segments of EDA data using unsupervised machine learning based on feature vectors extracted from segments of the data. After the artifacts are identified, they can be removed from the EDA data. Artifact-free EDA data can be used to estimate a patient's nociceptive state, which in turn can be used to modify a dosage of anesthetic drugs administered to the patient based on this estimation.

The first information handling system may determine that one or more characteristics of the telemetry metric report do not match one or more predetermined telemetry metric report characteristics. The first information handling system may perform one or more corrective actions based, at least in part, on the determination that the one or more characteristics of the telemetry metric report do not match one or more predetermined telemetry metric report characteristics.

Abstract: An information handling system for providing comprehensive remote authorized access to multiple equipment in a datacenter. A mobile device security credential is first authenticated before access information is configured in the mobile device using a short-range wireless interface. The configured access information is mapped to the equipment and the corresponding access token and encryption keys from the equipment are received by the mobile device. The mobile device uses the access token and the encryption keys to simultaneously access the equipment through a long-range wireless interface. The simultaneous access includes parallel accessing of the equipment at a next accessing instance without requiring re-authentication. With the accessed equipment, the mobile device manages the accessed equipment based on the configured access information.

Abstract: Systems and methods for tracking sympathetic-driven arousal state (SDAS) including nociception under anesthesia is described herein. The method includes obtaining heart rate variability and electrodermal activity of a subject. Point process models are generated for the heart rate variability and the electrodermal activity. A multimodal approach is implemented to determine a state space framework based on these point process models. SDAS can be estimated using the state space framework. In some implementations, an anesthesiologist can modify the dosage of drugs administered to the subject based on this estimation.

Abstract: Embodiments provide unique identification of telemetry reports generated by components of an IHS (Information Handling System) that supports a plurality of metric data sources. A source of metric data is detected, where the source may be a fixed or replaceable IHS component. The metric source is identified within a device descriptor table maintained by a remote access controller of the IHS. Based on a unique user-friendly label that is associated with the metric data source in the device descriptor table, the metric source is configured to generate metric reports. The generated metric reports are received and the label provided by the metric source is used to store data from the metric reports in a database row using the label as a unique database key. The user-friendly label can be used to perform efficient database queries without using a separate database column for storing a user-friendly description of the metric source.
