Abstract: A communication system personality provisioning system includes a communication system included in a computing system and coupled to a management system. The communication system stores authentication information in a UEFI database of a UEFI system in the communication system. The communication system receives a first operating software image and application/service from the management system, authenticates the first operating software image and application/service via first secure initialization operations performed by the UEFI system using the authentication information and, in response, installs the first operating software image and application/service on the communication system.

Abstract: A system for providing computer implemented services using information handling systems includes persistent storage and a system control processor manager. The system control processor manager instantiates composed information handling systems using the information handling systems; monitors, using system control processors of the composed information handling systems, operation of the composed information handling systems to obtain operation information; makes a determination, based on the operation information, that the computing implemented services provided by the composed information handling systems are substandard; and in response to the determination: manages operation of the composed information handling systems to provide standards compliant computer implemented services by modifying a composition of at least one of the composed information handling systems using a system control processor of the system control processors.

Abstract: A washing apparatus for mop heads and washing pads which has the introduction of cleaning solution into a compartment for the mop as well as an overflow and drain function. The washer provides affordability, eliminates the need for electricity as a power source or lifting the cleaning water so as to drain the unit, and eliminates the possibility of back injuries associated with lifting. The washing apparatus also affords versatility that it can be combined with a mop bucket with a wringer function. Further, it can include accessories such as a spray nozzle or a foam gun.

Abstract: This invention provides a thin laminate for modifying the appearance of a surface. The laminate includes a carrier film disposed against the lower surface of an indicia containing layer. The laminate may optionally include a bonding coat for attaching the laminate to a surface, at least one removable protective layer, and a release coating for facilitating the transfer of the laminate on a surface. The invention also provides methods and systems for modifying the appearance of a surface using the laminate.

Abstract: This invention provides a flexible film for providing a protective finish on a surface. The film may optionally include a bonding coat for attaching the film to the surface, at least one removable protective layer, and a release coating for facilitating the transfer of the film to the surface. Cured and crosslinked top coats may be applied over the films to enhance the durability of the underlying surface. These top coats may then be easily removed by peeling the underlying film away from the surface.

Abstract: This invention provides a thin unsupported indicia containing layer for modifying the appearance of a surface. The indicia containing layer may be contained in a laminate structure that includes an adhesive coating applied to the lower surface of the indicia containing layer, at least one removable protective layer, and a release coating for facilitating the transfer of the indicia containing layer from the removable protective coating onto the surface to be modified. The invention also provides methods and systems for modifying the appearance of a surface using the indicia containing layer.
