Methods, systems, and devices for memory device operation are described. A memory device may operate in different modes in response to various conditions and user constraints. Such modes may include a power-saving or low power mode. While in the low power mode, the memory device may refrain from operations, such as self-refresh operations, on one or more of the memory array(s) included in the memory device. The memory device may deactivate external interface components and components that may generate operating voltages for the memory array(s), while the memory device may continue to power circuits that store operating information for the memory device. The memory device may employ similar techniques in other operating modes to accommodate or react to different conditions or user constraints.

The various embodiments disclose an electronic device including: a storage including a non-volatile memory having a buffer space and a storage space, a storage device controller, and a storage interface, and a processor. According to various embodiments, the processor may be configured to perform control to determine whether the storage supports a high speed data storage mode using a buffer space of a non-volatile memory of the storage, activate a function of writing data buffered in the buffer space of the non-volatile memory into a storage space of the non-volatile memory based on the storage interface operating in a first state based on the storage supporting the high speed data storage mode, and transition the storage interface of the storage to the first state based on no request to the storage being generated during a predetermined time period based on the storage interface operating in a second state.

In general techniques are described by which to provide switchable communication transport for communication between primary devices and vehicle head units. A primary device comprising a memory and a processor may be configured to perform the techniques. The memory may store an operating system and an application. The processor may execute the operating system to present a single communication interface by which the application establishes a first transport between the primary device and a vehicle head unit that facilitates execution of a mode in which the application provides data for presentation by the vehicle head unit. The processor may also execute the application to transmit, during execution of the mode, the data via the first transport, where the operating system switches, during execution of the mode, from the first transport to a second transport. The application transmits, during execution of the mode, the data via the second transport.

The present disclosure generally relates to managing user inputs. In some examples, devices receive user inputs via a biometric sensor, such as a fingerprint sensor. In some examples, devices receive user inputs via a button. In some examples, devices receive user inputs via touch sensors. In some examples, the biometric sensor and/or the touch sensor is integrated into the button.

Methods and systems are described for enabling an operative coupling to a network. In use, first data is received at a first node in a first network. The first data is forwarded between the first node to a second node in a second network, using a network relay. Additionally it is determined that a specified decoupling condition is met, and subsequent to forwarding the first data and in response to determining that the decoupling condition is met, the second operative coupling is disabled while the first operative coupling remains enabled for receiving second data for forwarding.

Systems and methods are described for power control in a media receiver device having a plurality of electronic components, using a trained model. Input signals are received from at least one electronic component. An alertness state of the device is determined using a machine learning based determiner trained to process the received input signals and predict a subsequent alertness state identifying at least one additional component or device. Power consumption by the identified components and devices is controlled based on the predicted alertness state.

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 automatic classification of network devices in a network. Specifically, the disclosure entails the designation of network device roles to network devices, as well as the clustering of network devices into logical groups. The association of network devices with network device roles and logical groups may be contingent on the connections between the network devices and a set of network device classification heuristics.

A method for transmitting a broadcast signal, includes compressing headers of Internet Protocol (IP) packets in an IP packet stream to output a compressed IP packet stream, the compressed IP packet stream including Initialization Refresh (IR) packets, a first group of IR-dynamic packets, and compressed IP packets; extracting context information from the compressed IP packet stream, wherein when the context information is extracted only from the IR packets in the compressed IP packet stream, the IR packets are converted to a second group of IR-dynamic packets; building signaling information including the context information; and encapsulating the signaling information into one or more signaling link layer packets and the compressed IP packet stream into link layer packets that are distinct from the one or more signaling link layer packets.

A power-subsystem-monitoring-based computing system includes a power subsystem coupled to a first computing component. A throttling engine throttles the first computing component when the power subsystem exceeds its maximum power consumption, and de-throttles the first computing component when the power subsystem no longer exceeds its maximum power consumption. The throttling engine also throttles the first computing component when the power subsystem exceeds its rated power consumption for a first time period, and de-throttles the first computing component when the power subsystem no longer exceeds its rated power consumption. The throttling engine also reduces the operating capabilities of the first computing component when throttling has been performed for more than a second time period, and increases the operating capabilities of the first computing component when the throttling has been performed for less than the second time period and the first computing component is operating below its desired operating capability.
