Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product that includes a processor(s) standardizing data from sources that includes details for materials for integration into a custom-designed item. The processor(s) store the standardized data in a consolidated data set one or more databases accessible to an API. The processor(s) trigger the API, based on a selected in a graphical user interface communicatively coupled to the API, to query the one or more databases to obtain select data from the consolidated data set about a portion of the materials that could potentially fulfill a parameter for the custom-designed item. The processor(s) optimize the select data, to determine one or more physical layouts for the portion of the materials in the custom-designed item. The processor(s) render and display a two-dimensional model of the custom-designed object with the one or more physical layouts implemented into the custom-designed object.

Abstract: An apparatus for selectively enabling power including a power supply, and a device having a controller and an input activated by a user. The controller is selectively powered by the power supply. While the device is in a sleep state, a sensing circuit senses activation of the input by the user and enables the power supply to provide power to the controller in response to the sensed activation of the input by the user. A latch circuit causes the power supply to continue to provide power to the controller. The controller is responsive to the sensed activation of the input by the user for enabling the latch circuit and for disabling the latch circuit, thereby reentering the device into a sleep state.

Abstract: In one embodiment, machine-readable media has stored thereon sequences of instructions that, when executed by a number of machines, cause the machine(s) to monitor behavior of a data center; acquire network utilization data; correlate the network utilization data with the data center behavior; store results of the correlations as trend data; utilize the data center behavior and trend data to predict future network requirements of the data center; and communicate the predicted future network requirements to a number of adaptive network interfaces.
