摘要:
A configurable optical communications system (100) for establishing point-to-point communications between multiple computer servers (160) coupled to a common midplane or backplane communications bus (132), wherein at least two of the servers include an optical input/output device (170) for sending and receiving an optical signal (112). The system further includes an optical communications pathway (140) that is configured to carry the optical signal, and at least two pivotable mirrors (150) located within the optical pathway and in-line with the optical input/output devices that are selectively orientated to direct the optical signal between the optical input/output devices to establish the point-to-point communication between the at least two servers.
摘要:
A device including a hollow pipe with a variable diameter is used for medical procedures. Means are provided for reducing the diameter either internally or externally so that the pipe can be inserted into a patient's body through an incision or an opening until the distal end of the pipe reaches a desired position. Thereafter, the diameter of the pipe is increased to allow various surgical devices to be introduced through the pipe.
摘要:
A first riser card of an apparatus in an example substantially axially connects with a first serial connection external interface of a printed circuit board (PCB) and at least in part laterally connects with a parallel connection external interface of a first memory module. The first riser card supports the first memory module with avoidance of abutment of the first memory module with a second memory module supported by a second riser card that is adjacent to the first riser card.
摘要:
A translator of an apparatus in an example through a serial connection external interface of a printed circuit board (PCB) communicates between a serial memory protocol within the PCB and a parallel memory protocol outside the PCB.
摘要:
A computer system includes a printed circuit board (PCB) that includes a first external interface for memory connection thereto, the first external interface employs a first memory protocol. The computer system further includes an extension circuit board and a translator module. the extension circuit board includes a second external interface for memory connection thereto and a third external interface, wherein the second external interface employs a second memory protocol different from the first memory protocol. The translator module is connectable to the first external interface of the PCB and the third external interface of the extension circuit board to provide translation between the first and second memory protocols.
摘要:
A server manages power and performance. The server comprises a plurality of processor and associated storage and input/output interface components, arranged into a plurality of independent compute cells. One or more performance metrics descriptive of performance of the independent compute cell plurality are selected and an optimization evaluation of the one or more performance metrics is performed. The independent compute cell plurality is tuned based on the optimization evaluation.

摘要:
Techniques related to remotely boundary scanning of an integrated circuit embedded in a target computing system are disclosed herein. In an example, a host computing system includes a first peripheral port and a second peripheral port. A port-to-port boundary scan assembly is to interface boundary scan data between the first and the second peripheral ports. Thereby the boundary scan data can be routed from the second peripheral bus to the target computing system via a network port at the host computing system.

摘要:
A chassis is configured to hold at least one horizontal row of node modules and a fabric module. The fabric module can be positioned above or below the row so that it can communicatively couple two or more node modules. Each of the node modules and the fabric modules can be inserted into and removed from the chassis longitudinally.
