摘要:
A volatile management memory stores management information for managing a use state of a storage medium. A management information storing unit divides the management information into plural division pieces and individually stores them in the storage medium. A main controller receives a command from a host device while the division pieces are being stored, performs data processing for the storage medium in response to the command between each division piece is stored, updates the management information divided into the division pieces according to the data processing content, and creates a log representing an update content of the management information. A log storing unit stores the log in the storage medium. A restoring unit reads the division pieces stored in the storage medium to the management memory as the management information, updates the management information according to the log stored in the storage medium, and restores the updated management information.

According to one embodiment, a controller controls writing into and reading from a storage apparatus that includes a first data-storage unit and a second data-storage unit. The second data-storage unit stores user data and parity data of the user data. The first data-storage unit stores the parity data. The controller includes a parity updating unit and a parity writing unit. When parity data is updated, the parity updating unit writes the updated parity data into the first data-storage unit. When a certain requirement is satisfied, the parity writing unit reads the parity data written in the first data-storage unit, and writes the parity data thus read into the second data-storage unit.

When data in one semiconductor memory device is corrupted during a padding process by a padding unit and the data cannot be recovered even by using an error correcting code for correcting a data error, a storage control device issues a data recovery request to a data recovery device. The data recovery device reads the data from other semiconductor memory device in response to the data recovery request to recover the data, and returns a recovery result to the padding unit in the storage control device to perform the padding process.

A semiconductor storage device includes a first memory area configured in a volatile semiconductor memory, second, third and fourth memory areas configured in a nonvolatile semiconductor memory, and a controller which executes following processing. The controller executes a first processing for storing a plurality of data by the first unit in the first memory area, a second processing for storing data by a first management unit in the fourth memory area, a third processing for storing data by a second management unit in the third memory area, a fourth processing for moving an area of the third unit from the fourth memory area to the second memory area, a fifth processing for copying data to an area of the third unit and allocating the area to the second memory area, and a sixth processing for copying data to an empty area of the third unit in the second memory area.
摘要:
Systems and methods for facilitating the location of entries in a buffer where a slave device stores information related to an active transaction so that the entries can be removed if the corresponding transactions are canceled. In one embodiment, multiple master devices and multiple slave devices are coupled to a split transaction bus. When a read command is received by a target slave device, the slave device generates an acknowledgment if the slave's command buffer has available entries, or a retry reply if the slave's command buffer is full. The acknowledgment includes a tag which is an index to the buffer location in which the command is stored. If a combined response to the command which is received by the slave device is a retry, the tag, which is included therein, is used by the slave to clear the command from its command buffer.
摘要:
Disclosed is an apparatus which operates to substantially evenly distribute commands and/or data packets issued from a managed program or other entity over a given time period. The even distribution of these commands or data packets minimizes congestion in critical resources such as memory, I/O devices and/or the bus for transferring the data between source and destination. Any unmanaged commands or data packets are treated as in conventional technology.

Disclosed is a method of molding an automobile outer trim part, including the steps of: (1) providing a film or sheet comprising a colored layer composed of a propylene polymer composition and, laminated thereto, a clear layer composed of a propylene homopolymer, (a) heating the laminated film or sheet, (3) feeding the heated laminated film or sheet into a metal mold including a pair of dies, (4) closing the metal mold so that the laminated film or sheet is shaped into desired configuration, (5) loosing the closed metal mold, and (6) injecting a thermoplastic polymer onto the side of the colored layer of the metal mold so that the shaped laminated film or sheet is united with a substrate layer of the thermoplastic polymer. The above propylene polymer composition comprises in a specified proportion a polypropylene block copolymer and/or polypropylene random copolymer exhibiting a specified intrinsic viscosity, a polyethylene exhibiting a specified intrinsic viscosity, an elastomer composed of a copolymer of ethylene and an .alpha.-olefin exhibiting a specified intrinsic viscosity and a colorant. The above method enables providing an automobile outer trim part having the same colored appearance and texture as those of painted part, irrespective of the avoidance of a printing step.
