Determining a relative location of an object in an environment of a head-mountable device by performing a Wi-Fi round trip time (RTT) process to determine a location of the head-mountable device based on respective round-trip times for a plurality of access points or peer devices, using data generated by an inertial measurement unit as a basis for determining a pose of the head-mountable device, determining a location of a first object in an environment of the head-mountable device, and based at least in part on the location and pose of the head mountable device and the location of the first object, determining a relative location of the first object.

Antenna methods and systems for wearable devices

An apparatus includes a frame component of a head-mounted device (HMD), an eyepiece, a battery, a processor, a heat pipe, and a hinge. The frame component includes a first compartment, a second compartment, and a channel connecting the first compartment and the second compartment. The heat pipe may extend from the first compartment to the second compartment through a channel and may be configured to transfer heat from the processor to the battery. A rate of heat transfer through the hinge may be greater than a threshold value when the hinge is in an open conformation that configures the frame component to be positioned along the side of the head. The heat transfer through the hinge may be smaller than the threshold value when the hinge is in a folded conformation that configures the frame component to be positioned for storage.

Heat transfer through frame component of head-mounted device

An apparatus includes a frame component of a head-mounted device (HMD) configured to secure the HMD to a head of a user. The frame component includes therein a first compartment, a second compartment, and a channel connecting the first compartment and the second compartment. The frame component is configured to be positioned along a side of the head with the channel passing over an ear of the head, the first compartment disposed on a first side of the ear, and the second compartment disposed on a second side of the ear. The apparatus also includes a battery disposed within the first compartment, a processor disposed within the second compartment, and a heat pipe extending from the first compartment to the second compartment through the channel. The heat pipe is configured to transfer heat from the processor to the battery.

Systems and devices are disclosed herein that provide or relate to modular accessory devices for a wearable device, such as a glasses-style head-mountable device (HMD). Illustrative systems may include a first frame component having an accessory slot accessible via an entry point on a transverse surface of the first frame component, a second frame component movably coupled to the first frame component, and one or more accessory devices that each have a slot-mating feature shaped for insertion into and removal from the accessory slot via the entry point. The second frame component may be movable between a first position in which the second frame component blocks access to the entry point, and a second position in which the second frame component allows access to the entry point.

Embodiments include methods, apparatus, and systems for retrieving data from multiple locations in storage systems. One embodiment includes a method that determines that data is stored in multiple locations remote to a computer, estimates a latency to retrieve the data from the multiple locations, and requests the data from the plural locations.

Retrieving data from multiple locations in storage systems

Systems and methods for extracting regions from occupancy grids are provided. One example method includes performing a plurality of assignment iterations. Each assignment iteration includes assigning each of a first plurality of cells to one of a plurality of centroids based on a cost formula such that a plurality of regions respectively associated with the plurality of centroids are formed. The region for each centroid comprises all of the cells assigned to such centroid. Each assignment iteration includes reassigning one or more of the first plurality of cells to one or more respective alternate regions. The one or more reassigned cells were included in one or more problem areas of one or more of the plurality of regions. Each assignment iteration includes relocating the plurality of centroids to be the respective means of the plurality of regions. One example system includes computing devices implementing instructions stored on non-transitory computer-readable media.

Managing computer resources. Workload state information associated with one or more servers in a data center is accessed by a computer, the workload state information comprises workload placement on one or more servers, cooling conditions of the one or more servers, and performance requirements associated with a data center. Cooling state information of cooling resources associated with the one or more servers are accessed by the computer, the cooling state information comprises cooling conditions of the cooling resources. The workload state information and the cooling state information are compared by the computer. Based on the comparing, the computer generates workload repositioning instructions that instruct repositioning of workload on the one or more servers to meet the performance requirements.

A system and method for manipulating environmental conditions in an infrastructure containing a fluid moving device are disclosed that include identifying correlations between operational settings of the fluid moving device and environmental conditions resulting from changes to the operational settings. In addition, an environmental condition detected at a location proximate to or within the plenum following supply of fluid into the plenum by the fluid moving device is received and errors between the received environmental condition and a reference environmental condition are identified. Operational settings for the fluid moving device to achieve the reference environmental condition are determined based upon the identified correlations and errors.

Manipulating environmental conditions in an infrastructure

In a method for manipulating environmental conditions in an infrastructure containing one or more adaptive vent tiles, correlations between opening levels of the one or more adaptive vent tiles and an environmental condition at one or more heat dissipating devices are identified. In addition, one or more environmental conditions at locations proximate to or within the one or more heat dissipating devices are received and errors between the received one or more environmental conditions and one or more reference environmental conditions are identified. Moreover, opening levels for the one or more adaptive vent tiles are determined based upon the identified correlations and errors.

Embodiments include methods, apparatus, and systems for managing jobs in a shared file system. One embodiment includes a method that intercepts file accesses within a job on a client to a storage device in a shared file system, detects when a file associated with the job changes, and sends the client a message of the change.

A method of caching data in a global cache distributed amongst a plurality of computing devices, comprising providing a global cache for caching data accessible to interconnected client devices, where each client contributes a portion of its main memory to the global cache. Each client also maintains an ordering of data that it has in its cache portion. When a remote reference for a cached datum is made, both the supplying client and the requesting client adjust their orderings to reflect the fact that the number of copies of the requested datum now likely exist in the global cache.

A method for hierarchical specification and modeling of scheduling in system-level simulations. The invention addresses the specification aspect by introducing an explicit notion of a scheduler that must be designed as part of the system. A scheduler effectively represents a scheduling policy for an architectural resource. A scheduling policy governs how behaviors assigned to a resource, gain access and share the resource. The invention includes a general framework for modeling a scheduling policy, which includes a simple mechanism that covers many common cases. This framework is part of a Virtual Component Codesign (VCC) process, which is targeted at consumer embedded system design. Two orthogonal models, one of a scheduler and one of a schedulable, comprise the overall modeling of scheduling in the invention. The two models interact by sending messages to each other via a simple protocol. The protocol itself is implemented by a pair of abstract interfaces, which in turn are implemented in concrete schedulable and scheduler objects in the simulator.
