International Classification:

H04L 29/06
G06F 17/30
G06K 9/00

Abstract:

Program instructions are executable by a processor to direct content from a content server to local user devices, and filter the content accessible to each local user device, wherein the content accessible to an individual local user device is filtered according to a current privilege level. The processor may also store a base privilege level for each local user device, and store a predetermined environmental condition for temporary escalation of the current privilege level of the individual local user device to a second privilege level. Still further, the processor may receive environmental data from the individual local user device, wherein the environmental data is captured by an input component of the individual local user device, and temporarily escalate the current privilege level of the individual local user device to the second privilege level in response to the environmental data received from the local user device satisfying the predetermined environmental condition.

Abstract:

A system includes storage devices storing data units. Each data unit is stored on one of the storage devices. The system includes a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable data storage medium storing computer-executable code. The processor executes the code to correlate workloads to the data units with respect to which of the workloads access which of the data units, and when the workloads access the data units. The processor executes the code to when the workloads access the data units and/or and on which of the storage devices the data units are stored, so that at given times the data units stored on a subset of the storage devices are not being accessed by any workload. The processor executes the code to, during each given time, power off the subset of the storage devices storing the data units that are not being accessed by any workload to conserve power.

International Classification:

H04L 12/803
H04L 29/06
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Methods, devices and program products are provided for utilizing one or more processors to receive a request from a client device for a network responsive resource. The network responsive resource includes a substitute scripted component. The methods, devices and program products determine whether to implement load sharing based on utilization information indicative of a load and build the network responsive resource with a client-side scripted component as the substitute scripted component.

International Classification:

H05K 7/20
H04R 1/22
H04R 3/00
G06F 1/16

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a computer enclosure with a first fan, a second fan, a fan controller, and an input for receiving a signal from a microphone indicating an amount of noise at a target location. The apparatus further includes a first actuator coupled to the first fan for adjusting an axial position of the first fan, wherein the controller controls the operation of the first actuator to position the first fan to reduce the noise indicated by the signal from the microphone with the first and second fans in operation. The microphone senses sound pressure and the controller automatically adjusts a position of one or more fans using an actuator to change the distance from the fan to the microphone, which may be co-located with a user, to provide destructive interference at the location of the microphone.

International Classification:

H02J 7/00
H01M 10/0525
H01M 10/42

Abstract:

An approach is provided that determines that power from at least one battery cell in a multi-battery cell configuration is not required to power the device based on a power requirement of the device. The approach then regulates voltages from the battery cells so that first set of the battery cells is shunted (0 v) and a second set of the battery cells is regulated with the voltage being set to one or more voltage levels to satisfy the power requirement.

G06F 3/0484

Abstract:

Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for resizing interfaces based on eye gaze. A method includes tracking a user's eye gaze using an eye tracking sensor, determining, by a processor, that the user is looking at a pane of a multipane interface based on the user's eye gaze, and dynamically resizing the pane that the user is looking at in response to determining that the user is looking at the pane.
