Abstract: A crop handling apparatus comprises a mobile chassis. The chassis is mounted on ground-engaging wheels. A tow-bar is provided at a front of the chassis for releasable attachment to a towing vehicle such as a tractor. A crop conditioning rotor is mounted on the chassis and has a plurality of outwardly projecting radial tines. Drive for the crop conditioning rotor can be by way of a drive transmission on the chassis which connects via a drive input with a PTO shaft on a tractor behind which the crop handling apparatus is drawn in use. A crop gathering conveyor is mounted on the chassis in front of the crop conditioning rotor. The crop gathering conveyor has a discharge end located in front of an inlet of the crop conditioning rotor to feed crop material to the inlet of the crop conditioning rotor in use.

Abstract: An embodiment of a semiconductor package apparatus may include technology to determine respective priority levels for one or more boot time events, determine an amount of execution time for the one or more boot time events, and automatically adjust a timer based on the amount of execution time and the priority levels for the one or more boot time events. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the invention involves partitioning resources of a manycore platform for simultaneous use by multiple clients, or adding/reducing capacity to a single client. Cores and resources are activated and assigned to a client environment by reprogramming the cores' route tables and source address decoders. Memory and I/O devices are partitioned and securely assigned to a core and/or a client environment. Instructions regarding allocation or reallocation of resources is received by an out-of-band processor having privileges to reprogram the chipsets and cores. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Hybrid golf club heads and hybrid golf clubs are described herein. The hybrid golf club head includes a body member having a hitting surface, a top surface, a toe end, a heel end, and a sole surface extending between the toe end and the heel end. The hybrid golf club head also includes a shaft attachment portion extending from the heel end upwardly and rearwardly therefrom away from the toe end, where the shaft attachment portion defines a shaft axis. The hitting surface is inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the shaft axis. The hybrid golf club head includes a first Length B of the top surface near the shaft attachment portion and a second Length A of the top surface near the toe end, where the ratio of B to A is in a range from about 0.428 to about 0.75.

Abstract: When transitioning from sleep mode to active mode, a processing system loads first stage resume content and second stage resume content into a volatile memory of the processing system. The first stage resume content may contain contextual data for a first program that was in use before the processing system transitioned to sleep mode. The second stage resume content may contain contextual data for another program that was in use before the processing system transitioned to sleep mode. The processing system may provide a user interface for the first program before all of the second stage resume content has been loaded into the volatile memory. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method to qualify access to a block storage device via augmentation of the device's controller and firmware flow. The method employs one or more block exclusion vectors (BEVs) that include attributes specifying allowed access operations for corresponding block address ranges. Logic in accordance with the BEVs is programmed into the controller for the block storage device, such as a disk drive controller for a disk drive. In response to an access request, a block address range corresponding to the storage block(s) requested to be accessed is determined. Based on the BEV entries, a determination is made to whether the determined logical block address range is covered by a corresponding BEV entry. If so, the attributes of the BEV are used to determine whether the access operation is allowed.
