Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide for communication between a base component and a tablet component of a hybrid computing system. The hybrid computing system is in a connected state when the base component and tablet component are connected. Systems and methods provide for a switch for determining control of the hybrid computing system when in a connected state. Embodiments provide that the base component may control the tablet component when the hybrid computing system is in a connected state and the switch is set to base control. According to embodiments, the display component may control the hybrid computing system when the hybrid computing system is in a connected state and the switch is set to tablet control. In addition, embodiments provide that a server module running on the display component and a client module running on the base component facilitate communication between the hybrid computing system components.

Abstract: One aspect provides a method comprising: ascertaining an interrupt at an information handling device having two or more cores of different size; determining if the interrupt should be directed to one of a bigger core and a littler core based on a policy for scheduling interrupts; directing the interrupt to the little core if the interrupt does not qualify as an exception based on the policy for scheduling interrupts; and processing the interrupt on an appropriate core according the policy for scheduling interrupts. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: One aspect provides a method including: identifying a task to be scheduled for execution on an information handling device having two or more cores of different size; determining an appropriate scheduling of the task for execution on the two or more of cores of different size, wherein the appropriate scheduling of the task is determined via a core signature for the task; directing the task to an appropriate core for execution based on the appropriate scheduling determined; and executing the task on the appropriate core. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: The instant invention broadly contemplates an energy saving subsystem comprising a secondary CPU that utilizes less power than a main CPU, thereby allowing an electronic device (e.g. a laptop PC) having the secondary CPU to use less power and run for longer periods of time on a limited power supply. Thus, the invention permits the electronic device to be utilized for extended periods and extends the battery life.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for preparing a polymer, employing the steps of: (1) contacting a free radical initiator; a chain transfer agent containing a thiocarbonyl thio group and a free radical leaving group; and a radically polymerisable monomer, to form a polymer chain; and (2) contacting the polymer chain of step (1) with at least one of a polyvalent coupling agent, a polymerisation inhibitor, a grafting acylating agent, an amine and an oil of lubricating viscosity. The invention further provides compositions and uses for the polymer.

Abstract: Embodiments operating shared peripherals in a hybrid computing system are described. Embodiments control a shared wireless antenna variously between a primary system and a secondary system, where the secondary system is detachable from the primary system and operates as an independent computing device in the disconnected state, while operating as a display device in the connected state.

Abstract: A lubricating composition containing an oil of lubricating viscosity, a high molecular weight polyolefin that is at least substantially free of ethylene-derived monomer units, and an overbased metal containing detergent, is capable of reducing intake valve deposits in a direct injection engine.

Abstract: A method in one aspect may include receiving an add instruction. The add instruction may indicate a first source operand, a second source operand, and a third source operand. A sum of the first, second, and third source operands may be stored as a result of the add instruction. The sum may be stored partly in a destination operand indicated by the add instruction and partly a plurality of flags. Other methods are also disclosed, as are apparatus, systems, and instructions on machine-readable medium.

Abstract: The present invention provides high-HTHS value lubricating compositions that have improved fuel economy performance. The present invention also provides methods of operating an internal combustion engine utilizing such compositions. The lubricating compositions of the invention utilize butane dioic imide compounds, such as tartrimides, and may also be low sulfur, low ash and low phosphorus, providing lower wear and friction and improved fuel economy.

Abstract: A method of one aspect may include receiving a rotate instruction. The rotate instruction may indicate a source operand and a rotate amount. A result may be stored in a destination operand indicated by the rotate instruction. The result may have the source operand rotated by the rotate amount. Execution of the rotate instruction may complete without reading a carry flag.

Abstract: A quaternary ammonium salt detergent made from the reaction product of the reaction of: (a) a hydrocarbyl substituted acylating agent and a compound having an oxygen or nitrogen atom capable of condensing with said acylating agent and further having a tertiary amino group; and (b) a quaternizing agent suitable for converting the tertiary amino group to a quaternary nitrogen and the use of such quaternary ammonium salt detergents in a lubricating composition, a fuel composition.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for auditing access to secure data. A detection module detects an access to the secure data. A record module records an encrypted log entry describing the access to the secure data. A verification module verifies the secure data is securely stored.
