One embodiment provides a method, including: detecting, at an electronic device, an event has occurred; detecting, using a device sensor, that the electronic device is proximate to at least one other person; accessing, in a storage location, a rule set including a rule regarding the detecting that the electronic device is proximate to at least one other person; identifying, using a processor of the electronic device, a type of notification for the event based on the rule set; and providing, using an output device of the electronic device, a notification of the type identified. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Intelligent notification delivery

One embodiment provides a method, including: accepting, at an input surface of an electronic device, ink strokes; determining, using a processor of the electronic device, that the ink strokes include a selection indicator pair; associating, using a processor of the electronic device, the selection indicator pair with content; and selecting, using a processor of the electronic device, the content associated with the selection indicator pair. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Two stroke quick input selection

One embodiment provides a method, including: accepting, at an input surface, ink input; determining, using a processor, typeset for the ink input; providing, on a display, a combined display of the ink input and the typeset; where the combined display visually associates the ink input and the typeset. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Display of ink input and digital recognition results

A device and method of transferring energy between peer devices includes determining a predefined limit on energy transfer to a consumer device, initiating transfer of the energy via an energy transfer connection, and terminating the energy transfer when the predefined limit is reached.

Energy transfer mechanism with predefined limit

An embodiment provides a method, including: displaying content on a display screen of a first device; determining a position of a second device relative to the display screen of the first device; selecting a portion of the display screen of the first device based on a determined position of the second device; and transferring the portion of the display screen selected to one or more devices. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Using information handling device footprint for transfer

Additional workloads are assigned among servers in a power-efficient manner. For each of a plurality of servers, a stored power efficiency/capacity utilization relationship is accessed, current component power consumption values are obtained, and a current power consumption efficiency is calculated. An amount of capacity utilization necessary to perform an additional workload is obtained, and a predicted power consumption efficiency is determined for each server. The predicted efficiency is determined using the current power consumption efficiency of the server and the stored relationship. The workload is then assigned to the server that would have the greatest improvement in power consumption efficiency.

Energy efficient workload placement management using predetermined server efficiency data

In one aspect, a device includes a touch-enabled display, a processor, and a memory accessible to the processor. The memory bears instructions executable by the processor to determine that an input device is within a proximity to the touch-enabled display, and in response to the determination and without supplemental input from a person, present on the touch-enabled display a user interface (UI) for providing input to the first device at least in part based on manipulation of the input device.

Presenting user interface on a first device based on detection of a second device within a proximity to the first device

An embodiment provides a method, including: communicating data from a smart pen to a device using a pen input data channel having a first bandwidth; said data including short range wireless connection data; establishing, using said data, a short range wireless connection between the smart pen and the device; and communicating, in a connected condition, higher bandwidth data between the smart pen and the device using the short range wireless connection. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Smart pen pairing and connection

Methods and systems of identifying and remediating at-risk resources in a computing environment are provided. A method includes periodically determining respective infrastructure topologies of a computing environment that changes over time, wherein the determining is performed by a computer system communicating with the computing environment. The method also includes: identifying, by the computer system, an intrusion event in the computing environment; determining, by the computer system, at-risk resources in the computing environment based on the determined intrusion event and a corresponding one of the infrastructure topologies; and performing, by the computer system, remediation action for the at-risk resources.

Identifying and remediating at-risk resources in a computing environment

One embodiment provides a method, including: detecting an event; determining, using a processor of a wireless node, one or more other wireless nodes within wireless range; generating, after the event, a packet of data including identifications of the one or more wireless nodes and positional data associated therewith; and transmitting, over a network connection, the packet of data to at least one of the one or more wireless nodes. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Ascertaining a region of interest in a wireless network

A CPU package includes an encryption and decryption module disposed in a communication path between an instruction path of a processor core and a data register that is externally accessible through a debug port, and a key store accessible to the module. The module is configured to encrypt and store data in the data register for each of a plurality of processes being handled in the instruction path, wherein data owned by each process is encrypted and decrypted by the module using an encryption key assigned to the process. The key store is configured to store the encryption key assigned to each of a plurality of processes, wherein the key store is inaccessible outside the CPU package. The data is only decrypted for a requesting process having a process identifier that matches the process identifier stored in the processor data structure along with the requested data.

Secure processor for multi-tenant cloud workloads

One embodiment provides a method, including: accepting, in an input overlay application, handwriting ink strokes; determining handwriting units for the handwriting ink strokes; accepting editing input of the handwriting ink strokes; and reflowing handwriting ink strokes based on the editing input. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Reflow of handwriting content

One embodiment provides a method, including: allocating, at a node within a local network, availability to a broader network into one or more units; associating, using a processor, one or more tokens with the one or more units; distributing, over a network, the one or more tokens to a requesting node; receiving, over a network, the one or more tokens from the requesting node, where the one or more tokens have been associated with network payload; confirming, using the processor, that the one or more tokens are valid; and in response to the confirming, sending the network payload onto the broader network. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Allocation of broader network bandwidth within a local network

One embodiment provides a method, including: accepting, in an input and display device, handwriting ink strokes; providing, using a handwriting recognition engine, one or more machine words for the one or more ink strokes; determining a characteristic of the one or more handwriting ink strokes; changing, based on the characteristic of the handwriting ink strokes, input formatting for the one or more machine words; and inputting the one or more machine words according to the input formatting.
