Abstract: Described herein are embodiments of systems and methods for network fabric setup within and outside of a modular fabric chassis for its sleds such that server profiles and associated interface configurations may be propagated seamlessly to external managed network fabrics in a data center. Once a switch port of a network switch is connected to a NIC interface of a NIC, the NIC receives from the connected switch port of the network switch a packet comprising a fabric manager attribute. The NIC populates a table comprising mappings between NIC interfaces and corresponding fabric manager information and sends the mapping table to a baseboard management controller (BMC). The BMC maintains a fabric manager attribute per interface in a BMC attribute registry for each NIC. Fabric manager information may be seamlessly refreshed from NIC to BMC or other consoles in case of link down or fabric manager swap situations.

Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe adaptively scaling a user interface based on detection of a display size associated with a connected processing device. A display size associated with a connected processing device is detected. A display class is determined based on the detected display size. A user interface for an application is launched based on the determined display class. Other examples are also described.

Abstract: A system having a plurality of networked detectors for detecting chemical, biological, or radiological, nuclear, or explosive agents is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of remote units, wherein each remote unit includes a robotic base, a lift, a sensor module, transceiver, navigation system, and power source. The remote units communicate with a base station, which receives data from the remotes and determines, based on the data, if an alarm condition exists.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a microchannel structure having microchannels formed therein. The microchannels are to transport a coolant and to be proximate to an integrated circuit to transfer heat from the integrated circuit to the coolant. The apparatus also includes a cover positioned on the microchannel structure to define a respective upper wall of each of the microchannels. The cover presents a compliant surface to the microchannels.

Abstract: A light source comprises a plurality of light emitting diodes arranged around the perimeter of a reflective optical element, wherein each of the light emitting diodes selectively generates a light beam directed to the reflective optical element. The reflective optical element generates a light path by collimating and reflecting the selectively generated light beams from each of the light emitting diodes.

Abstract: Numerous embodiments of an apparatus and method for generating an identification feature are described. In one embodiment of the present invention, portions of an identification character printed with thermochromatic ink are distributed within a three-dimensional matrix of a multi-layer patch. The multi-layer patch may be disposed above a substrate.

Abstract: Numerous embodiments of a carrier substrate having thermochromatic materials are described. In one embodiment of the present invention, a carrier substrate has a visible surface, and a thermochromatic material is disposed near the carrier substrate. The thermochromatic material produces a visual change of the visible surface when an activation temperature of the thermochromatic material is reached.

Abstract: A method for forming electronic inductors. A model of the desired shape of the inductor is first formed in wax or other soft material. It is compressed in a block of magnetically permeable material and then heated to remove the wax shape. The resultant cavity in the shape of the inductor is filled with conductive material to form an inductor within the magnetically permeable material block.

Abstract: A connector to supply power or communications to a printed circuit board having positive thermal coefficient switches embedded in or mounted on the connector. These positive thermal coefficient switches are linked to connector leads that in turn are connected to leads/traces embedded in or on the printed circuit board. The connector using these positive thermal coefficient switches protects the circuitry of the printed circuit board from possible damage.

Abstract: Baffles located next to the input of the ink feed channel in an inkjet pen to capture and retain contaminant particles before the particles reach the printhead. Particles that may accumulate on interior surfaces of the pen when the pen is maintained in an non-printing orientation are thus prevented from cascading into the ink feed channel when the pen is reoriented for printing.

Abstract: A multi-compartment ink-jet cartridge body structure, which includes a unitary body having a plurality of ink reservoir compartments. Each compartment includes an outlet port through which ink passes to feed the ink to an ink-jet printhead nozzle array. The body further includes a printhead nozzle array mounting region, and an ink manifold structure including a plurality of corresponding ink channels each leading from a corresponding outlet port to a feed opening formed at the printhead mounting region. The body and manifold structure are formed as a unitary one-piece structure. A lid is attached to the unitary body to cover the compartments. The body includes an external wall, and an access opening is formed in the wall adjacent the manifold structure. A seal structure attached to the body for sealing the access opening. The body structure can be fabricated by a plastic material using an injection molding process.
