Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for restoring an antitheft system. SOLUTION: This method for accessing a platform with an antitheft (AT) mechanism includes: initiating entry into a standby state by sending a platform public key to a server; receiving a server public key; receiving an encrypted and signed AT permit information; sending a rendezvous message to the server; receiving an encrypted and signed AT standby transition message from the server; validating the standby transition message; sending an RSA signed acknowledgment message to the server; and entering the standby state in the platform.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method, an apparatus, an article, and a removable storage device capable of restoring a computer system from a locked state. SOLUTION: In this method, a basic input/output system (BIOS) of the computer system is configured to determine, on pre-boot, whether or not the removable storage device is attached to the computer system. The BIOS is further configured to transfer control, on detection of the removable storage device, to a pre-boot authentication (PBA) module stored on the removable storage device to interact with a manageability engine (ME) to restore the computer system from a locked state to a unlocked state.

Abstract:
Channels are selected for nodes in a wireless mesh network in a manner that enhances connectivity and throughput in the network. For a node in the network, channel configurations are first identified that satisfy a predetermined connectivity constraint with respect to neighbor nodes of the node. A channel configuration is then selected from the identified configurations based on an achievable throughput of the configuration.
Abstract:
All-to-all communication is carried out in a wireless mesh network using a relaying packet that is routed through the network. In at least one embodiment, the relaying packet includes aggregated information that is made available to all nodes in the mesh network.

Abstract:
An embodiment selects radio frequency parameters that are optimal for an extended service set mesh network having a wireless mesh of several access points and clients. This embodiment may include: periodically scanning, by all access points and clients, channels to maintain an up-to-date channel interference table and to detect an interference source; detecting an interference source; electing a leader access point; gathering, by each access point except the leader access point, information from respective clients of each access point, and sending the information to the leader access point; selecting, by the leader access point, optimal radio frequency parameters using the information received by the leader access point; and disseminating the selected radio frequency parameters to the access points. A system may implement the operational embodiment.
