摘要:
A memory system is provided with a processor, a main memory, and a flash memory. Performance of the memory system is improved through achievement of speed-up and high data reliability. The memory system includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller configured to drive a control program to control the nonvolatile memory device. The control program executes a second access operation for the nonvolatile memory device even before a first access operation to the nonvolatile memory device is completed.

A computing system includes a host, a data source device, and a controller. The controller is configured to respond to a random access command from the host by setting information in a register that selects what data is to be accessed in the data source device. The controller then successively accesses the data in the data source device using the information that was set in the register.

A method for managing a bad cell is provided. The method includes reading status data from a page buffer and detecting a location of a bad cell from the status data. The method may further include remapping a bad address for the bad cell to a spare address for a spare cell in the same page.

Provided is a system storing data received from an application or file system in a non-volatile memory system of single-level cells and multi-level cells in accordance with one or more data characteristics. The non-volatile memory system includes a non-volatile memory cell array having a plurality of multi-level cells forming a MLC area and a plurality of single-level cells forming a SLC area, and an interface unit analyzing a characteristic of the write data and generating a corresponding data characteristic signal. A flash transition layer receives the data characteristic signal, and determines whether the write data should be stored in the MLC area or the SLC area based on whether or not the write data will be accessed by the file, or whether the address associated with the write data is frequently updated or not.

A memory system and corresponding method of wear-leveling are provided, the system including a controller, a random access memory in signal communication with the controller, and another memory in signal communication with the controller, the other memory comprising a plurality of groups, each group comprising a plurality of first erase units or blocks and a plurality of second blocks, wherein the controller exchanges a first block from a group with a second block in response to at least one block erase count within the group; and the method including receiving a command having a logical address, converting the logical address into a logical block number, determining a group number for a group that includes the converted logical block number, and checking whether group information comprising block erase counts for the group is loaded into random access memory, and if not, loading the group information into random access memory.
摘要:
A method for operating a memory system including a flash memory device having a plurality of memory blocks comprises determining whether a read error generated during a read operation of the flash memory device is caused by read disturbance and replacing a memory block which includes the read error, with a spare memory block if the read error is caused by read disturbance.

Methods and apparatus are provided for bandwidth management within Automatically Switched Optical Networks. An Optical Connection Controller (OCC) provides threshold based load balancing using an upper and a lower threshold for each port of a network element, and once port usage exceeds the upper threshold no more connections are allowed through the port until the port usage falls below the lower threshold. The OCC also minimizes fragmentation of a port so as to reduce the probability of call rejection as a result of fragmentation. The OCC also maintains a database of shortest paths between a network element and each destination, so that connections can be re-established quickly through alternate paths in the event of failure of a link or node. The OCC also provides the entire network with notification of a fault, thereby enhancing CR-LDP fault notification messaging.

A method for controlling a nonvolatile memory device includes reading a sub stripe including a plurality of sub pages stored in a first region, writing data stored in valid sub pages of the sub stripe to a second region different from the first region, and generating parity data using the data written to the second region and constituting a new sub stripe.
