Configurable delay insertion in compiled instructions
Techniques are disclosed for utilizing configurable delays in an instruction stream. A set of instructions to be executed on a set of engines are generated. The set of engines are distributed between a set of hardware elements. A set of configurable delays are inserted into the set of instructions. Each of the set of configurable delays includes an adjustable delay amount that delays an execution of the set of instructions on the set of engines. The adjustable delay amount is adjustable by a runtime application that facilitates the execution of the set of instructions on the set of engines. The runtime application is configured to determine a runtime condition associated with the execution of the set of instructions on the set of engines and to adjust the set of configurable delays based on the runtime condition.
MEMORY DEVICE DEGRADATION MONITORING
A memory circuit which includes: A synchronous memory cell array, configured to receive a clock signal and having address lines and bit lines. A margin agent, determining a status of the synchronous memory cell array based on a time duration between a transition of the clock signal and a change on a signal derived from a bit line due to a signaling on at least one of the address lines. In another aspect, a memory cell, having a bit line configured to provide data input/output to the memory cell may be provided with a comparator, comparing a voltage on the bit line with a reference voltage and indicating of a status of the memory cell thereby. Firmware may receive the indication of the status of a memory cell array, and transmit the indication, issue an alert, and/or reconfigure the memory circuit responsive to the status.
Maintaining Data Integrity Through Power Loss with Operating System Control
A storage controller has an operating system (OS) and power control firmware configured to manage use of battery power during a power outage event. The OS specifies to the power control firmware first and second sets of physical components that should be shed by power control firmware during a two-phase vault process. Upon a power failure, the power control firmware turns off power to the first set of physical components and notifies the OS of the power failure. The OS determines whether to abort or continue the vault process. If the OS aborts the vault process, the power control firmware restores power to the first set of physical components. If the OS continues the vault process, the power control firmware turns off power to the second set of physical components, the OS saves application state, and moves all data from volatile memory to persistent memory.
Fuzzer test system for applications in electric power systems
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods to conduct a fuzzer test on a device under test and configured for use in an electric power system. In one embodiment, a system may include a configuration subsystem to receive a parameter of the device under test. A fuzzer subsystem in communication with the configuration subsystem may be configured to conduct a fuzzer test on the device under test. The fuzzer subsystem may include a fuzzer state machine to generate input data to deliver to the device under test, a packet buffer to store input data generated by the fuzzer state machine, and a packet regulator to deliver input data generated by the fuzzer state machine based the parameter. A physical interface in communication with the packet regulator may transmit input data to the device under test based on the parameter.
System and method for determining physical orientation of a memory module using on-board thermal sensors
An information handling system includes a memory module having a first thermal sensor for a first memory channel, and a second thermal sensor for a second memory channel. A processor receives a first temperature from the first thermal sensor and a second temperature from the second thermal sensor, and performs a first high bandwidth access of the first memory channel. In response to a predetermined amount of time ending, the processor: receives a third temperature from the first thermal sensor and a fourth temperature from the second thermal sensor; determines a first temperature delta based on a difference between the third and first temperatures; and determines a second temperature delta based on a difference between the fourth and second temperatures. Based on the first and second temperature deltas, the processor determines whether the first or second memory channel is an upstream memory channel.
Intelligent and automatic load balancing of workloads on replication appliances based on appliance load scores
Various systems and methods are provided in which a replication process is initiated between a primary site and a recovery site, each having plurality of gateway appliances. Replication loads are evaluated for each given gateway appliance of the plurality of gateway appliances. If a determination is made that at least one gateway appliance of the plurality of gateway appliances is not overloaded, the plurality of gateway appliances are sorted based on replication loads respectively associated with each gateway appliance, and a determination is made as to whether a relative difference in replication loads between a gateway appliance having a highest replication load and a gateway appliance having a lowest replication load exceeds a difference threshold to determine whether the replication workloads between the gateway appliances should be rebalanced.
DAMAGE SENSORS FOR A MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICE
In general, this disclosure is directed to techniques for utilizing sensors within a computing device to detect a hazardous event and notify a central server that the computing device is potentially damaged. One or more sensors of a computing device may detect the hazardous event to the computing device. Responsive to detecting the hazardous event, the sensors may measure a magnitude of a damage measurand associated with the hazardous event to the computing device. The computing device may determine that the magnitude of the damage measurand exceeds a threshold damage value for the computing device. Responsive to determining that the magnitude of the damage measurand exceeds the threshold damage value, the computing device may send, to a server device, a message indicating the computing device is potentially damaged.
Abnormality detection
A method of detecting abnormality may include the following steps. A normal-value range of a parameter for a target object is determined based on historical values of the parameter in a preset time period or at a preset time point. Whether the target object is abnormal is determined based on the normal-value range and the value of the parameter for the target object in the preset time period or at the preset time point within a current time cycle. Further, another normal-value range may be determined based on historical deviation values for the target object in historical time periods or at historical time points before the preset time period or the preset time point. Whether the target object is abnormal is determined based on either of the two normal-value ranges.
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, AND MANAGEMENT METHOD
In the present invention, a management system has a storage device and a processor. The storage device holds an information processing program for controlling information pertaining to a storage system by utilizing a database. The processor executes an update program that updates the information processing program and the database utilized by the information processing program. The update program calculates an estimated update time needed to update the information processing program and the database on the basis of the size of at least a portion of the database utilized by the information processing program before being updated and the structure of the database utilized by the information processing program after being updated, and outputs the estimated update time thus calculated.
Gateway system with multiple modes of operation in a fleet management system
A method and a gateway system of a mobile asset are described. A voltage produced by a power system of the mobile asset is monitored by a gateway system. In response to determining that a first fluctuation occurs in the voltage produced by the power system of the mobile asset over a first interval of time, the gateway system operates in a first mode. In response to determining that a value of the voltage produced by the power system of the mobile asset is less than a voltage threshold, the gateway system automatically transitions to operating in a second mode, which is different from the first mode and causes the gateway system to consume less power than when it is operating in the first mode.
