    摘要: Various embodiments are directed to a tri-layered power scheme for architectures which contain a microcontroller. In one embodiment, a power management system may comprise a microcontroller in a chipset, a low consumption power well to control a power supply to the microcontroller, and a power controller to control a power supply to the low consumption power well. The power management system may be arranged to switch among multiple power consumption states. In a maximum power consumption state, the microcontroller is on, the power controller is on, and the low consumption power well is on. In an intermediate power consumption state, the microcontroller is off, the power controller is on, and the low consumption power well is required to be on. In a minimum power consumption state, the microcontroller is off, the power controller is on, and the low consumption power well is optionally on or off at the discretion of the power controller. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    摘要: In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes an apparatus that includes updatable non-volatile memory to store firmware and non-updateable non-volatile memory to store an interrupt sequence. The apparatus includes a chip interface to receive an interrupt instruction from management firmware. Receipt of the interrupt instruction controls access to and initiation of the interrupt sequence. After initiation of the interrupt sequence the apparatus may receive a firmware update and/or validate the firmware is from a valid source. The validation of the firmware may include utilizing the management firmware to verify the cryptographic signature for the firmware.

    摘要: Systems and methods may provide for implementing a dynamic payment service. In one example, the method may generate a request communication including purchase detail information relating to an item to request credit from a vendor to conduct a transaction relating to the item, determine a scope of credit to be issued to conduct the transaction relating to the item based on the purchase detail information, and generate a payment communication including the transaction information to complete the transaction relating to the item.

    摘要: In an embodiment, a processor includes first logic to determine first power to be provided to a first portion of a computational resource during a time period. The first portion may be reserved for execution by the processor of a first workload to be executed during the time period. The first power may be determined based at least in part on the first workload and independently of a second workload. The processor may include second logic to determine second power to be provided to a second portion of the computational resource during the time period. The second portion may be reserved for execution by the processor of the second workload during the time period. The second power may be determined based at least in part on the second workload and independently of the first workload.
