Abstract: Methods and apparatus for verifying a boot process of a computing system are disclosed. An example computer-implemented method includes reading, by a computing system during a boot process, a header section of a read-write portion of firmware of the computing system. The example method further includes generating, using a first cryptographic hash algorithm, a message digest corresponding with the header. The example method also includes decrypting, using a first public-key, an encrypted signature corresponding with the header. The example method still further includes comparing the message digest corresponding with the header and the decrypted signature corresponding with the header. In the event the message digest corresponding with the header and the decrypted signature corresponding with the header match, the example method includes continuing the boot process. In the event the message digest corresponding with the header and the decrypted signature corresponding with the header do not match, the example method includes halting the boot process.

Abstract: Systems and methods of determining tasks to be performed by a modular entity are disclosed. For instance, data associated with one or more tasks performed by one or more first modular entities within one or more modular computing environments can be obtained. Each first modular entity includes at least one modular component. A performance score can be determined for each task performed by each first modular entity. The performance scores can provide a measure of efficiency of a performance of a task by a first modular entity. An entity profile can be determined for each first modular entity based at least in part on the determined performance scores. At least one task to be performed by at least one modular entity can be determined based at least in part on the determined entity profiles for the one or more first modular entities.

Abstract: Systems and methods of determining network configurations for a modular computing entity are disclosed. For instance, a desired functionality to be implemented by a modular computing entity can be identified. Capacity data associated with one or more candidate network devices that are available to join a network associated with the modular computing entity is received. A network combination to implement the desired functionality can be determined based at least in part on the received capacity data. The network combination can include at least a subset of the candidate network devices.
