Patent number: 11281298Abstract: An information handling system includes a touch sensitive area, which in turn includes an array of pressure sensors and a haptics controller. The array of pressure sensors includes a first pressure sensor. When activated, the first pressure sensor provides an XY location based on a location of the first pressure sensor in the array of pressure sensors. The haptics controller receives an XY location from the first pressure sensor, and a location of a pen device from a pen digitizer circuit. The haptics controller calculates whether the XY location and the location of the pen device are substantially the same location. In response to the XY location and the location of the pen device being substantially the same location, the haptics controller disables haptic feedback within the touch sensitive area.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2020Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Srinivas Kamepalli, Lee Zaretsky

Patent number: 10802760Abstract: An information handling system with an improved dynamic application-aware storage optimization includes an application core that is configured to create a plurality of workload descriptors. The workload descriptors may represent workload requirements to implement a particular application program. A data engine performs an analysis of the workload descriptors, and based on the performed analysis the data engine generates a hint. A storage device is configured to use the hint in managing data flow in the information handling system.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2019Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: Dell Products, L.P.Inventors: Lee Zaretsky, Farzad Khosrowpour

Patent number: 9519331Abstract: A method for managing the power consumption of an information handling system including a multi-lane serial link having a lane setting that identifies the number of active lanes in the multi-lane serial link. The method may include determining a number of lanes required for the multi-lane serial link based on one or more I/O devices connected to the information handling system, triggering a reduction of the lane setting of the multi-lane serial link if the lane setting of the multi-lane serial link is greater than the determined number of lanes required, and automatically reducing power to the multi-lane serial link in response to the reduction of the lane setting.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2013Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Mukund Khatri, Lee Zaretsky

Patent number: 8274366Abstract: A method and apparatus for RF access to system identification and fault information is disclosed. In one aspect, the present disclosure teaches a method of accessing system information in an information handling system including storing system information in a computer component forming a part of an information handling system. The method further includes receiving a request for at least a portion of the system information via a radio frequency identification (“RF”) transponder link. The method further includes automatically transmitting a response from the computer component via the RFID transponder link such that the response includes the at least a portion of the system information.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2007Date of Patent: September 25, 2012Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Lee Zaretsky, Roman Szeszycki

Patent number: 8151011Abstract: Determining whether there exists an input-output (I/O) fabric conflict (mismatch) between a blade I/O fabric daughter card of a blade compute module and an I/O interface module of a blade compute module system, and if a conflicts does exit then taking action to correct this I/O fabric mismatch. An I/O fabric router may be coupled between the blade I/O fabric daughter cards and the system I/O interface modules. If a matching I/O interface fabric exists then the I/O fabric router will couple the blade I/O fabric daughter card to the matching I/O interface fabric. If there is no matching I/O interface fabric then the blade I/O fabric daughter card may be decoupled from the blade compute module system so that the associated blade compute module may otherwise function, and an alert may be sent regarding the I/O fabric conflict (absence of an I/O fabric match) for the I/O fabric daughter card of the blade compute module.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2006Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Shane Chiasson, Sompong Paul Olarig, Lee Zaretsky

Patent number: 7721096Abstract: A blade server module in an information handling system may have secure environment and authorized removal modes in non-volatile memory. If the secure environment mode is set in the blade server module, then the authorized removal mode is read to determine whether it also is set. If both of these modes are set then authentication keys of the inserted blade server module and blade server chassis are verified as being properly associated. If the authorized removal mode is not set when the blade server module is inserted into a server chassis or authentication keys are not verified as being properly associated then the blade server module power-up sequence is disabled. The authentication keys may be administrator/user defined. The secure environment and authorized removal modes may be set and cleared by the administrator/user.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2006Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Shane Chiasson, Sompong Paul Olarig, Lee Zaretsky

Publication number: 20060230299Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for power usage level management of blades installed in blade servers. When a new blade added is to a blade server, possible power usage levels for the new blade are assessed to determine possible effects on the total power usage level of the chassis. By assessing the different power usage levels, the chassis controller can then make intelligent decisions as to the power usage levels at which new blades will be allowed to operate while still keeping within chassis power supply capabilities. Blade power usage levels can be based upon a variety of considerations, including processor performance modes and blade configuration options.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2005Publication date: October 12, 2006Inventors: Lee Zaretsky, Mukund Khatri

Publication number: 20060156041Abstract: Information handling system power consumption across plural information handling systems, such as a rack of servers, is managed to restrict operations of the information handling systems to within a maximum total power consumption. Power consumption is restricted if necessary to maintain a level below the maximum by selectively operating one or more information handling systems in a reduced power mode or by disapproving operation of one or more information handling systems. Monitoring of power consumption and configuration of reduced power consumption modes is managed by a management controller associated with each information handling system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2005Publication date: July 13, 2006Inventors: Lee Zaretsky, Mukund Khatri
