摘要:
A method and system pre-emptively perform garbage collection operations of a forced amount on update blocks in a memory device. The amount of garbage collection needed by a certain data write is monitored and adjusted to match the forced amount if necessary. Update blocks may be selected on the basis of their recent usage or the amount of garbage collection required. Another method and system may store control information about update blocks in a temporary storage area so that a greater number of update blocks are utilized. The sequential write performance measured by the Speed Class test may be optimized by using this method and system.
摘要:
The present invention is a method for detecting DNA sequence differences including single nucleotide mutations or polymorphisms, one or more nucleotide insertions, and one or more nucleotide deletions. Labeled heteroduplex PCR fragments containing base mismatches are prepared. Endonuclease cleaves the heteroduplex PCR fragments both at the position containing the variation (one or more mismatched bases) and to a lesser extent, at non-variant (perfectly matched) positions. Ligation of the cleavage products with a DNA ligase corrects non-variant cleavages and thus substantially reduces background. This is then followed by a detection step in which the reaction products are detected, and the position of the sequence variations are determined.
