Abstract: Rechargeable batteries come in many different shapes and sizes. A rechargeable battery typically contains a group of one or more electrochemical cells. These cells degrade over time and use. Disclosed is a system and method for managing a rechargeable battery based on historical charging data. In one embodiment, the method includes storing a 1st timestamp in memory of a mobile information handling system, wherein the 1st timestamp identifies a time of day in which a 1st cycle for charging a battery started. A 2nd timestamp is also stored in the memory, wherein the 2nd timestamp identifies a time of day in which a 2nd cycle for charging the battery started. Thereafter an integer N based is generated on the 1st and 2nd timestamps, wherein N defines a recommended number of consecutive day(s) for charging the battery.

Abstract: An information management cell health monitoring system is provided herein that can monitor one or more information management systems, identify any performance issues that are occurring within an information management system, and automatically, or in response to a user input, transmit an instruction to the information management system to execute a workflow to resolve the performance issue(s). For example, the information management cell health monitoring system receives operational data, secondary copy policies, and/or similar data from an information management cells via a network. The information management cell health monitoring system analyzes the received information to identify any issues. If an issue is detected, the information management cell health monitoring system retrieves workflows and determines whether any of the workflows can be used to resolve the detected issue.

Abstract: An information handling system (IHS) may include a battery management unit (BMU) that remains operational when the IHS in general is in a powered off state. A processor is operational when the IHS in general is in a powered on state but not when the IHS in general is in a powered off state. The BMU is configured to obtain charge and discharge pattern information while the IHS in general is in the powered off state, to transmit the charge and discharge pattern information to the processor when the IHS in general is in the powered on state, to receive user control information from the processor, and to control charge and discharge of a battery according to the user control information when the IHS in general is in the powered off state.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for increasing the efficiency of data conversion in a coprocessor by using the statistical occurrence of data patterns to convert frequently occurring data patterns in one conversion cycle. In one embodiment, a coprocessor system is disclosed containing a converter engine, which includes a parser and a converter, an input buffer, and a result store. The input buffer is configured to transfer a set of source data to the converter engine, which converts the source data from first code format to a second code format, and sends the converted source data to the result store.

Abstract: A charge/discharge pattern battery training system includes a battery subsystem connected to a battery charging subsystem, and a battery charging determination engine coupled to the battery charging subsystem. The battery charging determination engine monitors a plurality of charge/discharge cycles performed by the battery subsystem and, based on the plurality of charge/discharge cycles performed by the battery subsystem, identifies a first charge/discharge pattern exhibited by the battery subsystem. The battery charging determination engine then determines a charging schedule that will cause the battery subsystem to exhibit a second charge/discharge pattern that is different than the first charge/discharge pattern, and applies the charging schedule via the battery charging subsystem to the battery subsystem that causes the battery subsystem to exhibit the second charge/discharge pattern.

The adhesive matrix is comprised of a hydrophilic domain and a hydrophobic domain, and a therapeutically active agent contained in the matrix in a supersaturated, stable, condition. The hydrophilic domain and the hydrophobic domain are co-soluble in a solvent system, to provide a homogeneous blend in which the active agent is solubilized. The proportion of the hydrophilic domain and hydrophobic domain is selected to optimize, or maximize, solubility of active agent in the matrix.

Abstract: Verifying architectural compliance of a processor core using processor-sparing functions. A simulation of a model for a register-transfer level design of the processor core is performed. A first state of the model is dumped, when no error exists. An error is injected in the model. A second state of the model is dumped, after the injected error is detected in the simulation. Upon dumping the second state, the model is reset and initialized with the first state. State information of the second state is loaded in the reset and initialized model.
