Abstract: A spare capacity status of each of multiple computing systems in a data center is monitored. Temporary workloads are assigned to these computing systems if there exists sufficient additional electrical power supply and capacity on power distribution lines. Thus, computing systems that are typically not productively used, such as those that are about to be decommissioned, have not yet been assigned for normal servicing, are reserved for special circumstances, or that are assigned to services that are currently in low demand, are temporarily used for productive data center purposes.

Abstract: An interception-proof authentication and encryption system and method is provided that utilizes passcodes with individual pins that are made up of symbols from a set of symbols, and tokens that contain at least two symbols from the set of symbols used for the passcode. Multiple tokens (a “token set”) are presented to a user, with some or all of a user's pre-selected pins (symbols) randomly inserted into some or all of the tokens. The user selects a token from the token set for each pin position in the passcode. The user is authenticated based on the selected tokens. Because each selected token may or may not contain one of the pre-selected pins in the user's passcode, and also contains other randomly generated symbols that are not one of the pre-selected pins in the user's passcode, someone that observes which tokens the user has chosen cannot determine what the user's actual passcode is.

The laminating device (230) includes lamination units (234,236,238,240) that operate independently of each other so that a row or column of semiconductor die (220) may be independently laminated onto a row or column of substrates simultaneously.

Abstract: Embodiments are described for dynamically responding to demand for server computing resources. The embodiments can monitor performance of each of multiple computing systems in a data center, identify a particular computing system of the multiple computing systems for allocation of additional computing power, determine availability of an additional power supply to allocate to the identified computing system, determine availability of a capacity on a power distribution line connected to the particular computing system to provide the additional power supply to the particular computing system, and allocate the additional computing power to the identified computing system as a function of the determined availability of the additional power supply and the determined availability of the capacity on the power distribution line.

Abstract: A convolution of the kernel over a layout in a multi-core processor system includes identifying a sector, called a dynamic band, of the layout including a plurality of evaluation points. Layout data specifying the sector of the layout is loaded in shared memory, which is shared by a plurality of processor cores. A convolution operation of the kernel and the evaluation points in the sector is executed. The convolution operation includes iteratively loading parts of the basis data set, called a stride, into space available in shared memory given the size of the layout data specifying the sector. A plurality of threads is executed concurrently using the layout data for the sector and the currently loaded part of the basis data set. The iteration for the loading basis data set proceeds through the entire data set until the convolution operation is completed.
