  • Publication number: 20180067785
    Abstract: A computing device detects performance of a cut/copy action of data within a user interface of the computing device. In response to detecting the performance of the cut/copy action, the computing device determines a likely destination at which pasting of the data will occur, based on an attribute of the data, and an action related to pasting of the data at the likely destination, based on the attribute of the data. The computing device performs the action.

  • Publication number: 20180061399
    Abstract: Speech recognition of a stream of spoken utterances is initiated. Thereafter, a spoken utterance stop event to stop the speech recognition is detected, such as in in relation to the stream. The spoken utterance stop event is other than a pause or cessation in the stream of spoken utterances. In response to the spoken utterance stop event being detected, the speech recognition of the stream of spoken utterances is stopped, while the stream of spoken utterances continues. After stopping the speech recognition of the stream of spoken utterances has been stopped, an action is caused to be performed that corresponds to the spoken utterances from a beginning of the stream through and until the spoken utterance stop event.

  • Publication number: 20180046243
    Abstract: A system includes storage devices storing data units. Each data unit is stored on one of the storage devices. The system includes a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable data storage medium storing computer-executable code. The processor executes the code to correlate workloads to the data units with respect to which of the workloads access which of the data units, and when the workloads access the data units. The processor executes the code to when the workloads access the data units and/or and on which of the storage devices the data units are stored, so that at given times the data units stored on a subset of the storage devices are not being accessed by any workload. The processor executes the code to, during each given time, power off the subset of the storage devices storing the data units that are not being accessed by any workload to conserve power.
