A fault module supports detection, analysis, and/or logging of various faults in a processor system. In one embodiment, the system is provided on a multi-core, single die device.
Abstract:
A method to reduce memory power consumption for a computing platform includes inspecting an operating parameter associated with a resource of the computing platform that is updated by the resource of the computing platform during runtime of the computing platform. Memory power utilization is then predicted for the computing platform during the runtime of the computing platform based at least in part on the operating parameter. A current power state of at least one memory module resident on the computing platform is transitioned to one of a plurality of power states based on the predicting of the memory power utilization.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the invention allows a network access server to control network access for individual applications that run on a device. The device may be included in a machine-to-machine environment. The embodiment may provide a secure channel between the network access server and the device access layer and another secure channel between the device access layer and the device application layer. Thus, before applications are allowed to access the network those applications may be required to authenticate themselves via a secure channel. Other embodiments are described herein.
Abstract:
Integrity management architecture is extended with trusted hash provisioning. The trusted hash provisioning ensures the integrity of a computing device. Thus, a multipurpose device can be as secure as a dedicated single-purpose device. The trusted hash provisioning includes determining a hash mask, and computing a trusted hash computation based on signatures of components identified as included within the scope of the hash. The computed trusted hash computation is used to determine integrity of the computing device.

Hardware management to include monitoring board interfaces resident on one or more backplanes within the plurality of modular platform shelves, detecting when a board is received and coupled to a board interface and performing one or more hardware management functions to include obtaining field replaceable unit information from the detected board.
Abstract:
Described herein are a method and an apparatus for reducing power consumption of memories by monitoring the power states of the memories via an operating system. The method comprises reading counter values corresponding to power states of each memory of a plurality memories; computing a power state usage corresponding to the power states of each memory of the plurality, the computing based on the counter values; determining whether the power state usage exceeds a predetermined threshold usage; and adjusting current and future usage of each memory of the plurality in response to determining that the power state usage exceeds the predetermined threshold usage.

Abstract:
A method is to include implementing at least one statistical prediction model to predict memory power utilization and reduce power consumption for a computing platform. The implementation includes determining a configuration parameter for the computing platform, monitoring an operating parameter for the computing platform and predicting memory power utilization for the computing platform based on the determined configuration parameter and the monitored operating parameter. The method is to also include transitioning at least one memory module resident on the computing platform to one of a plurality of power states based at least in part on memory power utilization predicted via the implementation of the at least one statistical prediction model.
Abstract:
A method for managing a system includes monitoring a plurality of applications running in the system for errors. A prediction is made as to whether errors detected would result in a failure. Fault recovery is initiated in response to a failure prediction.
