Abstract: A die including a die body having a first body surface, a second body surface on an opposite side of the die body as the first body surface, an interconnect region adjacent to the first body surface including interconnect dielectric layers with metal lines and vias, a transistor region above the interconnect region, the metal lines and vias making electrical connections to one or more power rails of the transistor region and electrically connected to transistors of the transistor region, a power region above the transistor region including an electro-conductive film on the second body surface and TSVs in the power region, an outer end of the TSV contacting the film and an embedded end of the TSVs contacting one of the power rails. A method of manufacturing an IC package and computer with the IC package are also disclosed.

Abstract: A computing device configurable as a wireless network access point that can be controlled from multiple applications. The computing device provides an interface through which applications may input commands to change the state of the access point. The interface responds to these commands and other events, such as association or disassociation of a wireless client, in a manner that does not disrupt the applications or devices using the access point. To determine an appropriate response to any event, the interface may maintain state information, including a count of the number of applications and/or wireless devices that have taken action indicating an operating state of the wireless access point.

Abstract: A computer system that can configure itself to establish a network connection. Configuration is performed by identifying a connection profile with information from a combination of sources. Information may be obtained from user input, network traffic monitoring and a discovery process involving attempts to establish a connection with different profiles. The computer system may perform the configuration process under the control of software that performs an automated configuration process is adapted to receive extensions for operation on computers with hardware components that have non-standardized configuration options. Extensions for networks operating according to non-standardized security protocol extensions are also possible.
