  • Power control system
    Patent number: 9568968
    Abstract: A power control system includes a first comparison unit, a second comparison unit, a switching unit, and a power supply unit. The first comparison unit receives a switch voltage and a first reference voltage, compares the switch voltage with the first reference voltage and outputs a first comparison voltage. The second comparison unit receives the first comparison voltage and a second reference voltage, compares the first comparison voltage with the second reference voltage and outputs a second comparison voltage. The switching unit receives the second comparison voltage and converts a power control voltage to the switch voltage. The power supply unit receives the switch voltage and outputs a working voltage to wake up a motherboard. The power supply unit only wakes up the motherboard when the power supply unit is completely discharged.

  • AUTHENTICATING A PERSONA IN A SOCIAL NETWORKING SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20160359835
    Abstract: A social networking system provides access to personas comprising information, for example, web pages describing users or entities. The information may be suggested by the social networking system or requested by the user, for example, via search. The social networking system authenticates the personas so that only authentic personas are suggested to users or returned when a user is searching for information. The authenticity of a persona is determined based on the connections and/or likes coming from other personas, user accounts, or other entities represented within the social networking system that have been previously authenticated. The authenticity of the person is also determined based on external links to the persona, for example, external websites referring to the persona or the rate at which external systems such as search engines direct web traffic to the persona.
