An information processing apparatus and method is provided and controls execution of learning processing thereon. Learning data are generated in which readings of a human presence sensor serve as input values, information on receiving or not receiving any operation from an operation panel serves as success/failure flags. The success/failure flag is generated from an assessment result of a current resumption assessment model and the information on receiving or not receiving an operation, and is provided to the learning data. Accordingly, learning processing is performed using the success/failure flags provided in the learning data, thereby efficiently implementing learning.

Devices and methods for dynamic power configuration (e.g., reduction) for thermal management (e.g., mitigation) in a wearable electronic device such as an eyewear device. The wearable electronic device monitors its temperature and, responsive to the temperature, configures the services is provides to operate in different modes for thermal mitigation (e.g., to prevent overheating). For example, based on temperature, the wearable electronic device adjusts sensors (e.g., turns cameras on or off, changes the sampling rate, or a combination thereof) and adjusts display components (e.g., adjusted rate at which a graphical processing unit generates images and a visual display is updated). This enables the wearable electronic device to consume less power when temperatures are too high in order to provide thermal mitigation.

Techniques are described for controlling a sensing state of a device. For example, a controller of the device receives input data indicating a request to disable a sensor of the device. The controller determines that the sensor is not disabled and is to enter a mute state based on the input data. Accordingly, controller causes the sensor to be decoupled from a power source via a power switch, causes the sensor to be decoupled from a processor of the device via a data switch, and causes outputting of an indication of the mute state by a user interface of the device.

A method and a system for impact detection in a stationary vehicle are provided. The method includes putting a telematics device into a sleep mode and performing a first micro wakeup. In response to determining that a first value read from a sensor during the micro wakeup is greater than a noise threshold, increasing a frequency of the micro wakeups and a sampling rate of the sensor. The method also includes reading a second value from the sensor during a second wakeup, performing a regular wakeup, and sending the first and second values during the regular wakeup.

With the advent of manycore architecture, on-chip interconnect connects a number of cores, caches, memory modules, accelerators, graphic processing unit (GPU) or chiplets in one system. However, on-chip interconnect architecture consumes a significant portion of total parallel computing chip power. Power-gating is an effective technique to reduce power consumption by powering off the routers, but it suffers from a large wake-up latency to resume the full activity of routers. Recent research aims to improve the wake-up latency penalty by hiding it through early wake-up techniques. However, these techniques do not exploit the full advantage of power-gating due to the early wake-up. Consequently, they do not achieve significant power savings. The present invention provides a new router architecture that remedies the large wake-up latency overheads while providing significant power savings. The invention takes advantage of a simple switch to transmit packets without waking up the router. Additionally, the technique hides the wake-up latency by continuing to provide packet transmission during the wake-up phase.

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for controlling a hardware module, electronic device and storage medium. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method may include: timing a waiting state of the hardware module to obtain a current waiting duration of the hardware module when it enters a first waiting state; generating an interrupt signal based on the current waiting duration; determining program information corresponding to the current waiting duration under triggering from the interrupt signal; executing an action corresponding to the program information for the hardware module, and controlling it to enter a second waiting state. In the present disclosure, the hardware module is controlled to execute actions corresponding to different programs based on different waiting durations through an interrupt mechanism, thus controlling the hardware module to switch between waiting states with different power consumption, and achieving a good balance between energy saving and performance.

A peripheral device includes a bus interface and circuitry. The bus interface is configured to connect to a peripheral bus for communicating with a host in accordance with a peripheral-bus specification that specifies a physical reset signal asserted by the host. The circuitry is configured to execute predefined logic that evaluates a reset condition that is indicative of imminent assertion of the physical reset signal by the host, and to perform a reset procedure in response to meeting the reset condition.

The USB communication circuit establishes a connection with a computer device coupled to the USB plug according to the communication protocol of USB. The audio socket detection circuit detects a plug-in state of the audio socket. The first power circuit generates a second power to the USB communication circuit according to a first power received from the USB plug. The second power circuit generates a third power to the audio socket detection circuit according to the first power. The control circuit enables or disables the first power circuit according to the plug-in state of the audio socket.

Described herein are mechanisms and methods for blocking the propagation of signals to Integrated Circuit (IC) components that have been power gated, rather than simply suffering from leakage through signals that might not be parked in a low state. In some embodiments, switches that block the flow of current in such signals may enable turning off power to any IC component and not just to circuits on an IC component that make sole use of protocols that are friendly to power gating. This may advantageously increase power savings, by permitting more portions of a system in an idle state to be power gated, or by reducing or eliminating leakage in signals on boundaries of blocks being power gated, or both.
