According to various embodiments, an electronic device may include a first structure including a first plate including a first face and a second face facing away from the first face, and a second structure including a second plate, which faces the second face of the first plate and has an opening formed therein, and a first side wall extending from a first end portion of the second plate. The first structure may be movable between an open state and a closed state with respect to the second structure in a first direction with respect to the second plate. The second structure may be positioned at a first position from the first side wall when the first structure is in the closed state and positioned at a second distance, which is greater than the first distance, from the first side wall when the first structure is in the open state. The electronic device may further include a flexible touch screen display. The flexible touch screen display may include a planar portion extending across at least part of the first face, mounted to the first face, and having a first width in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and a bendable portion extending from the planar portion and positioned from the planar portion to the inside of a space between the first side wall and the first structure when in the closed state. The bendable portion may include a first portion extending from one end of the planar portion and having the same width as the first width, and a second portion extending from the first portion, facing the second plate, and having a second width less than the first width. The second portion of the bendable portion may be exposed visually at least in part to the outside of the electronic device through the opening of the second plate. At least part of the first portion of the bendable portion may be configured to construct substantially the same plane as the planar portion when the first structure transitions from the closed state to the open state. Other various embodiments are possible.

A performance management scheme for a processor based on leakage current measurement in field. The scheme performs the operations of detection and correction. The operation of detection measures per core leakage current in the field (e.g., using voltage regulator electrical current counters). The operation of correction changes the processor power management behavior. For example, processor cores showing high leakage degradation may be logically swapped with cores showing low leakage degradation.

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.

An electronic device includes a detecting unit, a communicating unit, and a control unit. The detecting unit detects a temperature of a cable connected to the electronic device. The communicating unit receives cable information including information related to the cable from the cable. The control unit changes a threshold temperature from a predetermined temperature to a temperature indicated by the cable information, in a case where the temperature indicated by the cable information is higher than the predetermined temperature and the communicating unit has received the cable information. The control unit controls a power supply device to stop supplying power from the power supply device to the electronic device via the cable or controls the electronic device to stop receiving power from the power supply device via the cable, in a case where a detected temperature of the cable is higher than the threshold temperature.

Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for memory access by a computer in a reduced power state, such as during video playback or connected standby. Some embodiments are particularly directed to disabling one or more memory channels during a reduced power state by mapping memory usages during the reduced power state to one of a plurality of memory channels. In one embodiment, for example, one or more low-power mode blocks in a set of functional blocks of a computer may be identified. In some such embodiments, the computer may include a processor, a memory, and first and second memory channels to communicatively couple the processor with the second memory. In many embodiments, usage of the one or more low-power mode blocks in the set of functional blocks may be mapped to a first address range associated with the first memory channel.

The present invention is related to a method for proximity sensing and an applied electronic device thereof. The present invention provides that a movement signal is generated according to a detection data, a move baseline data and a move threshold and cooperated with a proximity signal for generating a judgement signal to judge if the human body or the object body is close to the electronic device.

Systems and methods are described that can include transmitting, from a first wearable computing device, a first ultrasound signal and receiving, by the first wearable computing device and responsive to the first ultrasound signal, a second ultrasound signal from a second wearable computing device. The method can include identifying, by the first wearable computing device, a location of the second wearable computing device with respect to a location of the first wearable computing device where the location of the second wearable computing device can be identified based on a determined time-of-flight of the first ultrasound signal. The method can include establishing a wireless connection between the first wearable computing device and the second wearable computing device where the wireless connection can be based at least in part on the identifier and the identified location associated with the second wearable computing device.

In a memory system in an embodiment, in a case of normal operation, a control unit returns a write completion response upon completion of reception of write data from a host, and writes the write data into nonvolatile memory in a multiple values. In a case of unordinary power-off, changeover to operation using a backup battery is conducted and the control unit writes dirty data that is not completed in writing into the nonvolatile memory, into the nonvolatile memory with two values. When next boot, the control unit reads the dirty data from the nonvolatile memory into the volatile memory, and thereafter writes the dirty data into the nonvolatile memory in a multiple values.

An application processor includes an application processor including a first processor configured to generate a control signal based on whether user data is changed, wherein the application processor is configured to implement a power manager which dynamically controls power provided to the first processor, in response to the control signal.

A network system includes a higher-level device, a first intermediate device connected to the higher-level device, and a second intermediate device connected to the higher-level device. The first intermediate device is configured to control supply of an electric power to a first lower-level device via a first device being able to be controlled to interrupt. The second intermediate device is configured to control supply of an electric power to a second lower-level device via a second device being able to be controlled to interrupt, the second lower-level device being a redundant component for the first lower-level device.
