Technologies for verifying authorized operation includes an administration server to query a dual-headed identification device of a server for identification data indicative of an identity of the server. The dual-headed identification device includes a wired communication circuit, a wireless communication circuit, and a memory having the identification data stored therein. The administration server further obtains the identification data from the dual-headed identification device of the server, determines a context of the server, and determines whether boot of the server is authorized based on the context of the server, the identification data of the server, and a security policy of the server.

Embodiments of the invention are directed towards logic and/or modules stored in processor secure storage to determine whether a first platform firmware image (e.g., basic input/output system (BIOS), device read-only memory (ROM), manageability engine firmware) loaded onto a processor cache is valid. The processor executes the first platform firmware image if it is determined to be valid. If the first platform image is determined to be invalid, a second platform firmware image is located. If this platform firmware image is determined to be valid, the processor will execute said second platform image.In some embodiments of the invention, the determination of whether the first platform firmware image is valid is based, at least in part, on verification of a digital signature associated with the first platform firmware image. The digital signature may be created, for example, from a private key, wherein the digital signature is verified via a public key.

Technologies for transferring offloading or on-loading data or tasks between a processor and a coprocessor include a computing device having a processor and a sensor hub that includes a coprocessor. The coprocessor receives sensor data associated with one or more sensors and detects events associated with the sensor data. The coprocessor determines frequency, resource usage cost, and power state transition cost for the events. In response to an offloaded task request from the processor, the coprocessor determines an aggregate load value based on the frequency, resource usage cost, and power state transition cost, and determines whether to accept the offloaded task request based on the aggregate load value. The aggregate load value may be determined as an exponential moving average. The coprocessor may determine whether to accept the offloaded task request based on a principal component analysis of the events. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Technologies for dynamic display include a mobile compute device that comprises a display transformable between at least two different physical topologies. The mobile compute device determines a current physical topology of the display and retrieves a policy based on the determined current physical topology. The policy identifies a corresponding action to occur in response to each of one or more user inputs to the mobile compute device while the display has the current physical topology. The mobile compute device processes a user input based on the retrieved policy.

Technologies for fast low-power startup include a computing device with a processor having a power management integrated circuit. The computing device initializes platform components into a low-power state and determines, in a pre-boot firmware environment, the battery state of the computing device. The computing device determines a minimum-power startup (MPS) configuration that identifies platform components to be energized and determines whether the battery state is sufficient for the MPS configuration. If sufficient, the computing device energizes the platform components of the MPS configuration and boots into an MPS boot mode. In the MPS boot mode, the computing device may execute one or more user-configured application(s). If the battery state is sufficient for normal operation, the computing device may boot into a normal mode. In the normal mode, the user may configure the MPS configuration by selecting features for the future MPS boot mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Technologies for adaptive real-time media streaming include a computing device to determine, by a trusted execution environment of the computing device, a current workload of the computing device based on at least one activity counter. The at least one activity counter is to record counter data associated with performance of the computing device. Further, the computing device determines a residual workload capable of being supported by the computing device based on the determined current workload and a new content playback characteristics for streaming media content based on the determined residual workload. The computing device streams media content received from a trusted server based on the determined new content playback characteristics.

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for receiving, from a host driver, factory data including one or more of calibration data, platform identifier data, manufacturer data or wireless carrier data, and verifying integrity of the factory data. Additionally, the factory data may be provisioned into non-volatile memory (NVM) in accordance with an operating system independent format managed by a platform root-of-trust such as a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). In one example, provisioning the factory data includes defining one or more partitions in the NVM, initiating storage of the factory data to the NVM along the one or more partitions, and specifying a restriction profile for the one or more partitions, wherein the restriction profile includes one or more of read restrictions, write restrictions, time bound restrictions or location bound restrictions.
