    Abstract: Technologies for flexible I/O endpoint acceleration include a computing device having a root complex, a soft endpoint coupled to the root complex, and an offload complex coupled to the soft endpoint. The soft endpoint establishes an emulated endpoint hierarchy based on endpoint firmware. The computing device may program the endpoint firmware. The soft endpoint receives an I/O transaction that originates from the root complex and determines whether to process the I/O transaction. The soft endpoint may process the I/O transaction or forward the I/O transaction to the offload complex. The soft endpoint may encapsulate the I/O transaction with metadata and forward the encapsulated transaction to the offload complex. The soft endpoint may store responses from the offload complex in a history buffer and retrieve the responses in response to retried I/O transactions. The I/O transaction may be a PCI Express transaction layer packet. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Techniques for implementing assess to Android applications and native Window application on Android devices and systems. A processor board includes a processor that is configured to run a full version of a Windows operating system and Windows applications. The processor board is configured to be communicatively coupled to the processor board in an Android device, such as a Smartphone or tablet. Upon operations and when the processor board is communicatively coupled to the Android device, a user of the Android device is enabled to selectively run Android applications and Windows applications, with the Windows applications being executed natively on the processor board. The processor board may be implemented in a computing card that is approximately the size of a credit card or smaller, which in turn may be coupled to the Android device via a backpack or similar means. The processor board may also be disposed within the same housing as the Android device.

    Abstract: Technologies for flexible I/O protocol acceleration include a computing device having a root complex, a smart endpoint coupled to the root complex, and an offload complex coupled to the smart endpoint. The smart endpoint receives an I/O transaction that originates from the root complex and parses the I/O transaction based on an I/O protocol and identifies an I/O command. The smart endpoint may parse the I/O transaction based on endpoint firmware that may be programmed by the computing device. The smart endpoint accelerates the I/O command and provides a smart context to the offload complex. The smart endpoint may copy the I/O command to memory of the smart endpoint or the offload complex. The smart endpoint may identify protocol data based on the I/O command and copy the protocol data to the memory of the smart endpoint or the offload complex. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
