Quanta Computer Assigned Patent

Quanta Computer Inc., Taoyuan, Taiwan, has been assigned a patent (10,360,114) developed by Chou, Le-Sheng, and Chien, Wei-Yu, Taoyuan, Taiwan, for “hardware recovery systems.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for hardware recovery are disclosed. In some examples, a system can detect a hardware error and identify a system component associated with the hardware error. The system can then generate a request configured to trigger an operating system of the system to place the system in a particular operating state. The particular operating state can be determined based on a component type of the system component. The particular operating state can be a first sleep state when the component type is a peripheral component or a second sleep state when the component type is a processor, a memory, or a power supply. The second sleep state can result in a lower power resource consumption than the first sleep state. The system can generate an indication that the system component can be replaced without restarting the operating system.”

The patent application was filed on February 24, 2016 (15/052,430).
