Abstract: Platform power management includes boosting performance in a platform power boost mode or restricting performance to keep a power or temperature under a desired threshold in a platform power cap mode. Platform power management exploits the mutually exclusive nature of activities and the associated headroom created in a temperature and/or power budget of a server platform to boost performance of a particular component while also keeping temperature and/or power below a threshold or budget.

Abstract: A flush joint high torque thread that achieves superior tensile efficiency and compression efficiency. In one example, the thread of a pin member and a box member includes a thread a chamfer with angled shoulders on each side of the thread to achieve increased torque. The stab flanks each contain a lead-in chamfer extending no further than a thread pitch line. The load flanks are each tapered. The stab flanks engage each other during assembly, but not upon assembly. The load flanks do not engage each other during assembly, and do engage each other upon assembly. The pipe achieves both a 70% tensile efficiency and a 90% compression efficiency.

Abstract: A tissue repair assembly is disclosed, including a soft anchor body and at 5 least a first suture operably coupled to the anchor body. Tensioning on first and/or second ends of first suture may deploy the anchor body to a second configuration, in which the anchor body is axially compressed and radially extended. The tissue repair assembly may also include a means to cinch around a portion of a first and/or second suture and knotlessly lock the tissue repair assembly. Some embodiments 10 may include a pre-formed knot. In some embodiments, the preformed knot may be a nail knot, provided wrapped around an insertion instrument and configured to receive and cinch around a suture extending therethrough.

Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing and displaying radiofrequency (RF) information collected at a radio sensor are provided. The method can include receiving, analyzing and buffering RF signal information at a radio sensor. The radio sensor can relay the buffered signal data and related metadata to a ground station for display, review, and playback. The buffered signal data can be stored in a memory of the ground station, each RF signal of the plurality of RF signals having an associated signal data buffer in the memory. The ground station can then display activity boxes on a box display indicating an activity level or an amount of data buffered relating to an associated RF signal. The system can further display activity symbols on an activity display each activity symbol depicting a timewise display of the spectral data and/or an amount of signal data buffered.
