    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture (e.g., physical storage media) to implement software defined silicon feature licensing are disclosed. Example licensor systems disclosed herein includes a third party verifier to verify one or more credentials included in a request to become an authorized delegated licensor, the request received from a third party. Disclosed example licensor systems also include a feature identifier to identify a feature of a silicon structure which the third party is to be granted the authority to license. Disclosed example licensor systems further include a configuration installation code generator to generate feature configuration installation code, the feature configuration installation code to be used by the third party to generate at least a portion of the license, the portion of the license to be used by a licensee to configure the silicon structure to access the licensed feature, and contents of the feature configuration installation code encrypted to prevent access by the authorized delegated licensor.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a number of embodiments related to devices, systems, and methods for identifying a location of a resource among a plurality of locations in a data center rack. A signal transmission medium may be disposed proximate to the plurality of locations to transmit a signal traversing the plurality of locations, with each resource in the rack having a sensor or transmitter portion that couples itself to the signal transmission medium at a point substantially at this resource location, or the location of the resource within the data center rack is identified based at least in part on the sensed signal.
