  • Publication number: 20250110583
    Abstract: An input device, such as a stylus, can be operated to determine one or more conditions and select an appropriate operating mode. For example, a stylus can be attached to a host device when not in active use by a user. Attachment can be securely and releasably achieved with magnetic coupling. In such a configuration, the stylus can detect the attachment based on the presence and modification of magnetic fields. Based on such detection, the stylus can select an operating mode that allows power to be conserved when it is determined that certain components of the stylus need not be actively operated.

  • Publication number: 20250111389
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described for optimizing CRM (customer relationship manager) systems and sales outcomes. A daily prioritized task or call list can be presented to a salesperson. The daily list can provide a salesperson with an optimized procedure or order of tasks for the day without the salesperson having to access a CRM and determine their own tasks for the day, saving valuable time. The daily list can be prioritized on various factors, such as preferred number of days between calls, times of day depending on time zones or other unique factors for each potential sales target. A machine learning model can be used to optimize sales tactics.

  • Publication number: 20250110792
    Abstract: In accordance with the described techniques, a host processor receives a task graph including tasks and indicating dependencies between the task graph. The host processor formats the task graph, in part, by sorting the tasks of the task graph in an order based on the dependencies between the tasks. Further, the host processor submits the formatted task graph to a scalable input/output virtualization (SIOV) device, which directs the SIOV device to process the tasks of the task graph based on the order.
