    Abstract: In some implementations, power provided to a computing system, such as a rack system, may be interrupted. This interruption is detected, and in response, power from a battery backup system is directed to the computing system to replace the interrupted power source, which in some implementations may be a main AC power grid source. A signal is received indicating that a backup power source, for example a backup generator system, is online and prepared to deliver power to the computing system. For an initial period of time, this backup power source is prevented from providing power to the computing system. For example, the backup generator system may be providing power to a power supply unit of the computing system, but the power is not allowed to flow to the computing system. After the initial period of time passes, the power provided to the computing system by the battery backup unit is reduced at a particular rate of change while the power from the backup generator system is allowed to flow to the computing system through the power supply unit.

    Abstract: A portable electronic device includes a display, a sliding track, a hinge, and a host. The display has a receiving groove. The sliding track is disposed in the display, and faces the receiving groove. The hinge is movably disposed on the sliding track, and located in the receiving groove. The host is disposed on the hinge. The host is rotated and moved relative to the display via the hinge. When the portable electronic device is in a tablet mode, the host is located in the receiving groove, and sustainably parallel to the display.

    Abstract: Various examples of the present technology provide systems and methods for incorporating a switch card and adapter cards in a server system to provide flexible HDD and SSD supports. More specifically, a server system comprises a switch card having at least two different types of interfaces (e.g., a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, a serial ATA (SATA) interface, or a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface), and a controller that comprises a first Central Processing Unit (CPU) and a second CPU. The first CPU is connected to a first adapter card while the second CPU is connected to a second adapter card. The first adapter and the second adapter are coupled to the switch card of the server system.

    Abstract: A method for power management by a rack management controller (RMC) of a server rack includes collecting power consumption data from a first baseboard management controller (BMC) of a first server in the server rack and sending the power consumption data to a management server. The RMC receives power requirements from the management server and determines a power setting based on the power consumption data and the power requirements. The RMC requests the first BMC to limit power consumption of the first server according to the power setting.
