Filed:

Oct 12, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/976967

Inventors:

James Mault - Evergreen CO, US
John Sanderson - Bainbridge Island WA, US
Nicholas Anderson - Seattle WA, US
Rob Pledger - Lake Oswego OR, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/003000

Abstract:

A system and method of integrated calorie management is presented. The system includes a computer with a processor, memory, display and user input mechanism. The method includes the steps of measuring a resting metabolic rate (RM) of a user and utilizing the measured resting metabolic rate and user activity level over a predetermined time interval to determine a total energy expenditure (TEE) of the user. The method also includes the steps of determining a total calorie intake (TCI) value representing the person's total calorie intake during the predetermined time interval and determining a caloric balance (CB) for the user from the total energy expenditure measurement and the total calorie intake value. The method further includes the step of using a rate of change of the measured resting metabolic rate to determine when to remeasure the resting metabolic rate of the user.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for account data association with voice interface devices are disclosed. For example, when a host user/primary user and guest user have consented for account data to be associated with the primary user's devices, a request to associate the account data may be received. Voice and device-based authentication may be performed to confirm the identity of the guest user and the guest user's account data may be associated with the primary user's devices. During a guest session, voice recognition may be utilized to determine if a given user utterance is from the guest user or the primary user, and actions may be performed by the voice interface device accordingly.

International Classification:

G06F 9/50

Abstract:

A method for managing storage and computational resources in a datacenter includes obtaining a power delivery limit for a rack power supply delivering power to the plurality of computing devices and measuring a resource telemetry for the first computing device and second computing device in the server rack. In response to measuring a power draw of the server rack above a power threshold value of the power delivery limit, the method includes allocating the second computing device of the server rack as a storage server to the first computing device. The method occurs at a server rack including a plurality of computing devices. A first computing device and a second computing device are in network communication with one another. Each of the first computing device and second computing device include a processor and a hardware storage device.
