20110087721 | HIGH PERFORMANCE MEMORY BASED COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACE - Embodiments of the present invention include enhanced functionalities and components within a Communication Endpoint Processor (CEP) that act as an interface between computational and communications domains. The embodiments disclosed herein deliver a complete memory mapped high performance interface that has the ability to support the simultaneous transmission of multiple frames of multiple sizes, and that has the ability to interrupt the transmission of lower priority frames in order to send higher priority frames. | 04-14-2011 |
20110080701 | COOLING HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTER SYSTEMS - A computer system may include a chassis defining a front and a rear. The chassis may include a vertically oriented midplane disposed therein, the midplane including a plurality of front module slots for receiving front electronic modules from the front of the chassis, and a plurality of rear module slots for receiving rear electronic modules from the rear of the chassis. A cooling system may be provided within the chassis and may generate an upwardly-directed front air flow within the chassis directed at selected ones of the front electronic modules and an upwardly-directed rear air flow within the chassis directed at selected ones of the rear electronic modules. The front air flow is separate from and independent of the rear air flow. The selected front and rear electronic modules may be disposed in the chassis so as to separate the front air flow into a plurality of substantially equal front air streams and the rear air flow into a plurality of substantially equal rear air streams, respectively. | 04-07-2011 |
20100235833 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING SECURE IMAGE MOBILITY - A system and method allows a virtual server to be assigned to any of a plurality of physical computes hosts in a networked computing system. Each physical compute host includes a motherboard and a secure management controller that includes a secure memory vault for storing virtual server secure profile data and a BIOS switch for loading a BIOS memory with a BIOS image from the secure memory and controlling access to the BIOS memory by the motherboard. The virtual server secure profile data is transmitted to the secure memory under the exclusive control of a secure infrastructure layer including a common system controller a secure network that is distinct from the network over which the operating system and application stack is loaded. | 09-16-2010 |
20100097926 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING NETWORK ACCESS REDUNDANCY - In a networked multi computer environment, with redundant links, network interface cards (NICs) are commonly duplicated and teamed to provide a recovery mechanism when network components fail. Embodiments of the present inventions avoid teaming of pairs of NICs and provide a computing host with redundant network connections for the computing host through a switch that is transparent to the computing host. The computing host itself; that is, its hardware and software, is relieved of the duty of network access redundancy and returned to the simple, simplex networking operating mode. The switch replaces a potentially large number of NICs and the need for computing host network access redundancy management which leads to hardware and software cost reductions and increases the robustness and reliability of the system through redundant network access. | 04-22-2010 |
20090067431 | HIGH PERFORMANCE NETWORK ADAPTER (HPNA) - A high performance network adapter is provided for forwarding traffic and providing adaptation between packetized memory fragment based processor links of multiple CPUs and multiple switch planes of a packet switching network. Low latency for short and long packets is provided by innovative packet reassembly, overlapping transmission, and reverse order transmission in the upstream direction, and cut through operation in the downstream direction. | 03-12-2009 |
