Example computing device that may be implemented to report application status via platform binary tables are disclosed. In response to an upgrade log detected during a BIOS initialization, a platform binary table to a management agent stored in a memory is generated. An application status corresponding with the upgrade log is collected during the BIOS initialization. In response to an operating system initialization, the management agent is launched from the platform binary table to report the application status via the management agent. The upgrade log is removed.

Application status reporting via platform binary tables

Examples of communication of clocking apparatuses with computing devices are described. In an example implementation, a docking device and a computing device communicate through a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port of a USB hub of the docking device in USB Alternate Mode based on USB protocol-based messages.

Docking apparatus communication

According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor, a display system and a multifunction display port. The multifunction display port may include a display port connector and an input power connector. In addition, based on the apparatus being in a power off state and being connected to a host device, the display system may receive input electrical energy through the input power connector from a host device, receive display data through the display port connector from the host device, and display the display data received from the host device while bypassing the processor.

Multifunction display port

In some examples, an electronic device can include a battery, a power adapter, a processing resource, and a memory resource storing machine-readable instructions to cause the processing resource to determine monitored user behavior data exceeds a predetermined threshold, and responsive to the predetermined threshold being exceeded, provide a notification including a recommended threshold charge level, where the recommended threshold charge level is a percentage of an overall possible charge percentage of the battery.
