Abstract: An arrangement for securing a memory device of a computing system in which a memory access command is compared to each command in a list of commands. The command, with specified attributes, is authenticated when the command and its attributes match an entry in the list of commands. Following authentication, the command is evaluated according to usage and behavior metrics in order to identify and prevent unauthorized or malicious access of the memory device. If no violation of usage or behavior metrics is detected, the command may be issued to the memory device for execution.

Abstract: Various examples described herein provide for a management controller that includes a virtual universal serial bus (USB) host controller that can emulate an actual USB host controller to a central processor. A particular endpoint from a number of endpoints is associated with a virtual USB device that is coupled to the virtual USB host controller. The particular endpoint is to refer to a location in a management memory.

Abstract: An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a first stage and an accumulator. The first stage is based on digital logic and integer arithmetic to scale a reference clock by a configurable ratio of integers according to a line drawing technique to obtain an output clock. The accumulator is to store an accumulated error of a variable used in the line drawing technique.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a plurality of compute nodes and a baseboard management controller that is shared by the plurality of compute nodes to manage video for the compute nodes. The baseboard management controller includes video controllers that are associated with the plurality of compute nodes and at least one resource that is shared by the video controllers.

Abstract: Some examples described relate to securing a memory device of a computing system. For instance, a method may comprise comparing a command for the memory device to each command in a list of commands. The command is accepted when the command matches an authorized command in the list of commands. The accepted command is issued to the memory device.
