摘要： Architecture for data communications optimization based on generating and communicating “intents” or “hints” to a storage device and faster/slower solid state memory optimization. Data destined for storage on the storage device (capable of hints processing) can be bracketed to take advantage of improved performance associated with the hints processing. Data can be communicated in block format such that individual series of block exchanges can occur. Hints processing can be optional at the storage device. When communicated to the storage device firmware facilitates optimization of internal data flow and device operation. A write optimization schema is provided for storage system such as solid state storage devices. For example, frequently-modified data can be stored in faster memory to provide more efficient overall application data processing, and less-frequently modified data can be processed into and out of lower cost (or slower) memory.

摘要翻译： 基于生成和传达存储设备的“意图”或“提示”的数据通信优化架构，以及更快/更慢的固态内存优化。 可以将存储在存储设备上的数据（能够提示处理）的数据括起来，以利用与提示处理相关的改进的性能。 可以以块格式传送数据，以便可以发生单独的一系列块交换。 提示处理在存储设备上可以是可选的。 当传送到存储设备时，固件便于优化内部数据流和设备操作。 为诸如固态存储设备的存储系统提供写入优化模式。 例如，经常修改的数据可以存储在更快的存储器中以提供更有效的总体应用数据处理，并且较不频繁修改的数据可以被处理进出成本较低（或更慢）的存储器。

摘要： A multi-device storage system can be arranged into power saving systems by placing one or more storage devices into a reduced power consuming state when the storage activity associated with the system is sufficiently reduced that an attendant decrease in throughput will not materially affect users of the storage system. Where data redundancy is provided for, a redundant storage device can be placed into the reduced power consuming state and its redundancy responsibilities can be transitioned to a partition of a larger storage device. Such transitions can be based on specific parameters, such as write cycles or latency, crossing thresholds, including upper and lower thresholds, they can also be based on pre-set times, or a combination thereof. Lifecycle information, including lifecycle information collected in real-time by storage devices on a block-by-block basis, can be utilized to obtain historical empirical data from which to select the pre-set times.

摘要翻译： 当与系统相关联的存储活动被充分地减少时，多个设备存储系统可以被布置到节能系统中，使得一个或多个存储设备进入降低的功耗状态，从而伴随着吞吐量的降低将不会实质上影响用户的 存储系统 在提供数据冗余的情况下，可以将冗余存储设备置于降低的功耗状态，并且其冗余责任可以转换到较大存储设备的分区。 这种转换可以基于特定参数，例如写入周期或延迟，交叉阈值，包括上限和下限阈值，它们也可以基于预设时间或其组合。 可以利用生命周期信息，包括逐个块地由存储设备实时收集的生命周期信息，以获得用于选择预设时间的历史经验数据。

摘要： Power consumption of a device (e.g., flash storage driver, hard drive, etc.) connected to a host computer system is managed to promote efficient power usage and improved service. Communication between a host computer system (e.g., an operating system) and a device is enabled so that the host system can ascertain a power footprint of the device. Taking the power footprint of the device into consideration, along with the power consumption of the system as a whole (e.g., including the power consumption needs of other devices), a power manager can provide a power budget to the device based upon an informed decision. This allows for improved system power management through a coordination of the device's power consumption by the host system, specifically during operation allowing device performance to be enhanced for the task at hand.

摘要： A healthcare smart card management system stores a large amount of healthcare information to overcome shortcomings of separate and largely paper medical and insurance files. Embedded security technology supports partial or separated identity proofing as well as hardware time limited storage. Dynamic contextual privacy consent enhances user, healthcare provider, and insurer privacy and proprietary information to encourage and enable universal adoption. Data is structured in self-executing (“print to device”) for legacy systems as well as in rolled-access format and archival format to balance usage and data integrity purposes. A plurality of network interfaces are incorporated as well as financial transaction codes. Card integrity is enhanced by remote usage oversight, self-destruct monitoring (e.g., time, location, hacking, malfunction, etc.), and integral write-only audit logs. Levering excess storage capacity, a user can store related healthcare information such as exercise regimen, diet journal, emergency contact information, urgent medical conditions for first providers, etc.

摘要： A protocol and related techniques and platforms allow vendors to selectably extend the Media Transport Protocol (MTP), or other defined protocols to implement vendor-specific commands, data fields, instructions and other extension sets. According to embodiments of the invention in one regard, one or more extension space may be utilized to derive independent extension sets, in part by separating the extension space according to a unique identifier assigned to or associated with a given vendor. In embodiments that unique identifier may be or include an Internet DNS (Domain Name System) domain name, or other extension set name or identifier. According to the invention in one regard, because a DNS domain name may be independently registered and secured by participating vendors or manufacturers and by definition uniquely assigned, the separation of vendor extension sets by that type of name may be automatic and free from conflict. Vendors or manufacturers, such as makers of digital cameras, digital video cameras, audio players such as MP3 or other players, software vendors or others may therefore freely design extensions to the Media Transport Protocol or other protocols, without a need to clear those extensions with a standards body and with confidence that their commands, data fields and other extensions may be free from overlap with that of other manufacturers.

摘要翻译： 协议和相关技术和平台允许供应商可选地扩展媒体传输协议（MTP）或其他定义的协议，以实现供应商特定的命令，数据字段，指令和其他扩展集。 根据本发明的实施例，在一个方面，可以使用一个或多个扩展空间来导出独立的扩展集合，部分地通过根据分配给给定供应商或与给定供应商相关联的唯一标识符分离扩展空间。 在唯一标识符可以是或包括因特网DNS（域名系统）域名或其他分机集名称或标识符的实施例中。 在一方面，根据本发明，由于DNS域名可以被参与的供应商或制造商独立地注册和保护，并且通过定义被唯一地分配，所以通过该类型的名称分隔供应商扩展集可以是自动的并且没有冲突。 供应商或制造商，例如数码相机，数字摄像机，音频播放器（如MP3或其他播放器），软件供应商或其他人的制造商因此可以自由地设计对媒体传输协议或其他协议的扩展，而不需要清除这些扩展 一个标准机构，并有信心他们的命令，数据字段和其他扩展可能与其他制造商的命令重叠。

摘要： A computer system uses simplified device drivers for operating hardware devices. A simplified device driver for a hardware device of a given device type, such as a flatbed scanner, works with a system-supplied common driver for that given device type. The common driver and the simplified driver together function like a regular device driver. The simplified device driver implements a small number of entry point functions corresponding to a pre-selected set of operation commands “generic” to hardware devices of that given device type. When an application makes a request for an operation by the device, the request is passed through a device driver interface (DDI) to the common driver. The common driver then calls the entry point functions in the simplified device driver to carry out the requested operation.

摘要： In one aspect, an application analyzes and adjusts image data (e.g., pixel data) automatically upon acquiring (e.g., from a source such as a digital camera) a digital image. Adjustments can be based on, for example, image orientation, red-eye detection, blurriness, color balance, exposure, or noise detection. Metadata corresponding to image adjustments can be stored in an adjusted image file to preserve the original image. In another aspect, a computer system includes image analysis and image adjustment software modules for analyzing and adjusting digital image data at image acquisition time. The image adjustment module can include one or more processing filters. A customizable software architecture allows customization of the image adjustment software module (e.g., by adding, removing or reordering processing filters). The described techniques and tools can be implemented as features of an operating system environment.

摘要： A method and apparatus is described for receiving and storing data from a first host device and performing actions or events on a second host device based on the stored data. Also, a priority factor value may be determined for the stored data such that actions or events performed on the second host device may be based on the priorities of the stored data. For example, a removable, portable device may be connected to the first or the second host device. The stored data is accessed by the second host device and the stored data and the action or event on the second host device is performed based on the stored data. In another example, the stored data is not stored on the second host device. Thus, the stored data may be secure and trusted.
