  • Publication number: 20240338067
    Abstract: A system gives application developers and other users access to the real-time power consumption data of the hardware they are running on. In some embodiments, the system can provide an application programming interface (API). The system also provides a way for users to declare what is their maximum power limit they want to stay under. This could be combined as an OS setting that users, or cloud hardware managers, can enable, which will tell the application it is running in this power-capped mode. The application will then use the real-time power consumption data to see how close it is consuming to the specified cap. When the real-time power consumption data meets one or more criteria with respect to a specified cap, the application can dynamically adjust one or more operations to keep the power consumption of itself under the specified cap.

  • Publication number: 20230290208
    Abstract: A user using a client computer registers with a server computer over a computer network by submitting a biometric scan of a body part of the user. The user who commands the client computer to encrypt an electronic ballot becomes the ballot owner. The client computer generates a private key, encrypts the electronic ballot, and transmits the key to a key server computer. The ballot owner grants permission to another registered user authorizing them access to the private key to decrypt the encrypted ballot and to re-encrypt the electronic ballot. The permitted registered user enters selections onto the decrypted electronic ballot, encrypts it and transmits the ballot back to the ballot owner. The ballot owner decrypts the cast ballot and records the selections made by the permitted user.

  • Patent number: 11103780
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to devices, methods, and computer-readable medium for saving and restoring physical hardware states and virtual machine (VM) states for an application actively being executed on a virtual machine by a user on a computer device. The devices, methods, and computer-readable medium may allow a user to suspend a current state of an application session and save the VM and memory state to persistent storage, and later resume the execution of the saved application session by reading the state back into memory and restoring the VM state.

  • Patent number: 10656841
    Abstract: A storage stack exposes an API for use by user mode applications. An application calls a function exposed by the API to enqueue requests to read a file on a file submission queue (“FSQ”). Read requests in the FSQ are dequeued in batches, and file offsets in the batches of dequeued read requests are translated to disk offsets. The translated batches of read requests are stored in a storage submission queue (“SSQ”). A storage subsystem retrieves batches of the translated read requests from the SSQ and performs the specified read operations. Completion notifications for the read requests are stored in a storage completion queue (“SCQ”). Batches of completion notifications are dequeued from the SCQ and translated to file completions. Batches of file completions are stored in a file completion queue (“FCQ”). The user mode application that submitted the read requests can dequeue batches of completion notifications from the FCQ.

  • Patent number: 10132318
    Abstract: A method of controlling a variable geometry turbocharger is provided. A predefined desired boost pressure of a turbocharger is obtained from a memory. A predefined desired mass flow rate in an intake manifold of an engine is obtained from the memory. A theoretical amount of power required by the turbocharger to generate the desired boost pressure and the desired mass flow rate is calculated. An actual mass flow rate in the intake manifold is determined. An actual amount of power required by the turbocharger to generate the desired boost pressure and the actual mass flow rate is calculated. At least one adjustable vane of the turbine of the turbocharger is adjusted to allow the theoretical amount of power required of the turbocharger to generally equal the actual amount of power by adjusting the boost pressure.

  • Patent number: 9416748
    Abstract: A method of controlling a fuel injector is provided. Engine speed is monitored. Engine torque output is monitored. It is determined if the engine speed is within one of a plurality of predefined engine speed ranges. It is determined if the engine torque output is within one of a plurality of predefined engine torque output ranges. One of a plurality of injector coking factors is assigned based on the determined predefined engine speed range and the determined predefined engine torque output range. A total injector coking factor is calculated based upon total operating time within each of the plurality of injector coking factors. A duration of a fuel injection is increased based upon the calculated total injector coking factor.
