Systems and methods are provided for reducing power consumption of a multi-die device, such as a network processor FPGA (npFPGA). The multi-die device may include hardware resources such as FPGA dies, which may be coupled to NIC dies and/or memory dies. Power consumption of the multi-die device may be reduced by monitoring usage of hardware resources in the multi-die device, identifying hardware resources that are not in use, and gating power to the identified hardware resources. The status of processing elements (PEs) in the multi-die device may be tracked in a PE state table. Based on the PE state table, tasks from a task queue may be assigned to one or more processing elements.

A verification device is configured to supply operation power to a verification target device in order to communicate with the verification target device, and perform verification of the verification target device. The verification device includes: a detection unit configured to detect a value of a current that flows in the verification device due to the operation power being supplied to the verification target device; a determination unit configured to determine whether or not the value of the current is greater than a threshold value; and a verification unit configured to verify authenticity of the verification target device according to whether or not the value of the current is greater than the threshold value.

A diagnosis method for a conductivity sensor for a dialysis fluid preparation apparatus and personal dialysis apparatus, that mix water, an A fluid and a B fluid in predetermined proportions respectively to prepare a dialysis fluid and measures the concentration of the prepared dialysis fluid by concentration measurement means is described. The diagnosis method and the respective apparatus is based in measuring the A fluid without the B fluid being present in the solution.

A system for power management of an electronic device. The system comprises a programmable system microcontroller; power ports configured to sink or source electrical power; and a programmable power multiplexor connected between the power ports and the system microcontroller. The system further comprises bi-directional load switches connected between the power port and a bi-directional voltage convertor, and configurable to allow electrical power to flow through the bi-directional load switch. The bi-directional voltage convertor converts a first voltage supplied by the bi-directional load switch to a second voltage and supplies power at the second voltage to the electronic device or external device through the power ports. The programmable system microcontroller controls the direction in which each bi-directional load switch allows power to flow and the second voltage, such that the system sinks or sources power at each of the power ports according to programming of the system microcontroller.

An electronic device includes a first body, a second body coupled to the first body, a trigger device, and a processing device. The trigger device is configured to generate a trigger instruction based on a trigger operation. The trigger device is placed in an area that is responsive to a movement of the first body relative to the second body. The processing device is configured to switch the electronic device from a first state to a second state in response to the trigger instruction. A power consumption state of the first state is different from a power consumption state of the second state.

Embodiments of the present invention assist in the development, management, and deployment of aggregated data attributes for multiple data sources. One embodiment provides a development interface that allows for elements of attributes, including filters, to be moved into a coding area in which an attribute or an attribute element is being edited. In another embodiment, the user interface presents data fields to assist in the development of filters for multiple data sources with divergent formats. The application further provides a validation interface through which users can validate attributes and trace the results returned by various elements referenced by the attributes under validation. Another embodiment provides a system for managing attributes and deploying them to various systems by creating a deployment file that is used by an attribute calculation system. In one embodiment, the attribute calculation system is a scalable system that dynamically calculates attributes for multiple data sources.
