Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can receive data from an operating system in an electronic device, where the data is related to hardware that is in communication with the electronic device through a multimodal interface and communicate the data and/or related data to a local policy manager, where the local policy manager is in communication with the multimodal interface. The multimodal interface can be configured to support power transfers, directionality, and multiple input/output (I/O) protocols on the same interface.

Multimodal interface

An apparatus for fast inking a touch display is described herein. The system for fast inking a touch display can include receiving touch input and generate touch sensor data. The system can include a graphics processing unit (GPU) including a fast inker and a display pipeline. The GPU can transmit human interface device (HID) data generated from the touch sensor data to a writing application memory and the fast inker. The fast inker can convert the HID data into inking data to be sent to the display pipeline through a direct hardware path. The writing application can convert the HID data into inking data to be sent to the display pipeline. The system can also include a touch display to display pixels marked according to the inking data received by the display pipeline.

Fast inking a touch display

A method and apparatus for enhancing/extending a serial point-to-point interconnect architecture, such as Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) is herein described. Temporal and locality caching hints and prefetching hints are provided to improve system wide caching and prefetching. Message codes for atomic operations to arbitrate ownership between system devices/resources are included to allow efficient access/ownership of shared data. Loose transaction ordering provided for while maintaining corresponding transaction priority to memory locations to ensure data integrity and efficient memory access. Active power sub-states and setting thereof is included to allow for more efficient power management. And, caching of device local memory in a host address space, as well as caching of system memory in a device local memory address space is provided for to improve bandwidth and latency for memory accesses.

Atomic operations in PCI express

An adaptor may include a base modular unit that includes a plurality of surface connectors, a first port and circuitry. At least one surface connector may couple to an expansion modular unit. Circuitry or logic may provide information from the first port to the at least one surface connector.

Transaction layer packet formatting

PCI express transaction descriptor

A device, method, and system are disclosed. In one embodiment the device includes a router to transmit data packets between multiple host controllers and one or more peripheral devices. The router can receive a data packet from a host controller and transmit the data packet to a peripheral device across a data transmission path. The peripheral device is coupled to the first data transmission path through a first universal multi-transport medium (UMTM) connector. The connector includes an optical coupling capable of transporting the first data packet within an optical signal and an electrical coupling capable of transporting the first data packet within an electrical signal.

In one embodiment, the present invention includes a memory management unit (MMU) having entries to store virtual address to physical address translations, where each entry includes a location indicator to indicate whether a memory location for the corresponding entry is present in a local or remote memory. In this way, a common virtual memory space can be shared between the two memories, which may be separated by one or more non-coherent links. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Providing hardware support for shared virtual memory between local and remote physical memory

A method to adjust operation of a network controller of a device is disclosed. The method may include receiving contextual data from a sensor communicatively coupled to the device. The method may also include analyzing the contextual data to determine the context of the device. The method may also include modifying the network controller operation based on the analyzed contextual data.
