  • Patent number: 8347123
    Abstract: Exemplary techniques for turning off the clock signal to flip flops are described, which may reduce power consumption by electronic devices. In an implementation, a clock-gating logic turns off the clock signal to a flip flop when a data input of the flip flop remains untoggled. The reduction in power consumption is envisioned to also reduce heat generation.

  • Patent number: 7802081
    Abstract: Apparatus, systems, methods, and articles may operate to store one or more parameters associated with a pseudo-device in a device configuration table associated with a first partition within a multi-partition computing platform. An inter-partition bridge (IPB) may be exposed to an operating system executing within the first partition. The IPB may be adapted to couple the first partition to a second partition sequestered from the first partition. The IPB may be configured by the parameter(s) associated with the pseudo-device. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20100082334
    Abstract: A Voice User Interface (VUI) or Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system utilizes three levels of navigation (e.g. Main Menu, Services, and Helper Commands) in presenting information units arranged in sets. The units are “spoken” by a system in a group to a human user and the group of information at each level is preceded by a tone that is unique to the level. When navigating the levels, the tones of the levels are in a musical progression, e.g. the three-note blues progression I, IV, V, for preceding the groups of information, respectively. The musical progression returns to the tonic of the musical key when the navigation returns to the level one of the first group of information.
