Abstract: The present invention is directed to an electronic system for the assessment of emotional state. The system allows individual employees to specify their emotions using a set of emojis. The system provides a graphical user interface that displays a list of different emotions and associated emojis that the user can select. The system allows the user to write an entry about his thoughts and emotions in conjunction with the selected emojis and send the message with the emojis to individuals with whom he chooses to share. The system provides a list of company-wide employees from which the user can select. The system receives the messages and implements data structures to process the received messages and produce individual and company-wide emotional state information.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operating an event with an online conferencing component. The methods comprise: receiving, by a feedback processing system, a user input selecting an event from a plurality of scheduled events which each have an online conferencing component provided by a web conferencing service; enabling, by the feedback processing system, an electronic feedback message composing function and a numerical rating selection function for a duration of time determined based on a duration setting of a timer; performing, by the feedback processing system, the electronic feedback message composing function to compose an electronic feedback message for an individual associated with the selected event; and performing, by the feedback processing system, the numerical rating selection function to select a numerical rating for the individual associated with the selected event.

Abstract: Electronic systems and methods for developing a person's cognitive skills such as feedback giving skills are contemplated. The systems and methods provide a procedure through which participants follow to formulate and issue feedback to other individuals. Feedback is given through a feedback app. The systems and methods involve participation of feedback recipients and also judges. The procedure involves each feedback recipient giving a presentation in a period of time and each judge providing feedback to each presentation. The procedure is performed by executing an event which can be created from an event app provided by the system. The event app also executes the created event, and completion of the event allows the system to provide feedback results to the participants, feedback recipients, judges, and other individuals based on information received during the event. The flow of the event is also controllable from the event app.

Abstract: Systems and methods for cooling large numbers of computing devices in a data center are disclosed. The devices are positioned on shelves in racks and are connected via network switches. The computing devices are oriented so that their cooling fans all exhaust waste heat to one side of the rack into a hot aisle, and each position is offset from positions on neighboring shelves above and below the current shelf. The racks can be offset, or the positions within the racks can be offset. Each computing device on the rack can also be angled horizontally and or vertically to improve airflow. Multiple racks can be configured together into sloped regular polygons, with the interior forming the hot aisle, and deflectors can be installed to further improve airflow.

Abstract: Systems and methods for cooling large numbers of computing devices in a data center are disclosed. The computing devices have cooling fans that can have their fan speed set by management instructions. The devices are mounted in racks in a two-dimensional array and connected via network switches with ports corresponding to their location in the racks. The computer devices are oriented so that their cooling fans all exhaust waste heat to one side of the rack. Instructions are sent to the computing devices to set one or more attributes such as fan speed, operating frequency and voltage according to one ore more patterns. The patterns can be linear or nonlinear and can be shifted, rotated, or changed over time periodically or based on temperature or other performance measurements from the computing devices.
