Abstract
In some examples, a computing device may include a set of components (e.g., processor, memory, and the like) and a conductive sheet (or cable). The conductive sheet (or cable) may include a first graphene layer to dissipate at least a portion of heat generated by a component (e.g., the processor) of the first set of components and a second graphene layer that is used as an electrical ground by signals communicated between a first component and a second component of the set of components. The computing device may include a single housing or a first housing (with a first display device) attached to a second housing (with a second display device) by one or more hinges.
