摘要: A memory system and a method for managing the system is described. The system is configured such a plurality of system controllers, which may be RAID controllers, receive requests from the external environment and distribute the requests to a plurality of memory modules such that data may be stored in the memory modules. A global sequence number is assigned to the data of a data stripe so that the operations related to the data stripe are performed in an ordered manner so that the data remains consistent. A plurality of system controllers may comprise a domain and access a plurality of memory controllers and a plurality of domains may include at least one common memory module.

摘要: An interconnection system, apparatus and method is described for arranging elements in a network, which may be a data memory system, computing system or communications system where the data paths are arranged and operated so as to control the power consumption and data skew properties of the system. A configurable switching element may be used to form the interconnections at nodes, where a control signal and other information is used to manage the power status of other aspects of the configurable switching element. Time delay skew of data being transmitted between nodes of the network may be altered by exchanging the logical and physical line assignments of the data at one or more nodes of the network. A method of laying out an interconnecting motherboard is disclosed which reduces the complexity of the trace routing.

摘要: A memory system is described, where a plurality of memory modules is connected to a memory controller. The power status of each of the memory modules is controlled, depending on the functions being performed by the memory module. When no read or write operation is being performed on a particular memory module, at least a portion of the circuitry may be operated in a lower power mode. A memory circuit associated with the memory module may be placed in a low power mode by disabling a clock. The memory circuit data integrity may be secured by issuing refresh commands while when the memory circuit is in the lower power mode, by enabling the clock, issuing the refresh command, and disabling the clock after completion of the refresh operation.

摘要: A queue control system is disclosed for use in connection with the transfer of information, in the form of information transfer units, in a digital network. The network provides a plurality of service rate classes, based on, for example transmission rates for the various paths. The information buffer control subsystem includes a information transfer unit receiver, a information transfer unit buffer and a group controller. The information transfer unit receiver receives the information transfer units, and the buffer is provided to buffer the received information transfer units prior to transmission. The group controller controls the buffering of information transfer units received by the information transfer unit receiver in the buffer. In that operation, the group controller aggregates the information transfer units for each path in the buffer according to respective service rate classes, in particular aggregating the information transfer units for each path in a queue and further aggregating the queues for the paths associated with each service rate class in a queue. A transmission scheduler is also disclosed for use in transferring information, in the form of information transfer units, each associated with a path, in a digital network. The network provides a plurality of service rate classes, based on, for example, transmission rates for the various paths. The information transfer units for each path in a path queue, and the path queues for the paths associated with each service rate class are aggregated in a service rate queue. The transmission scheduler includes a information transfer unit selector for selecting from among the service rate queues, one path queue to provide a information transfer unit for transmission, and a information transfer unit transmitter for transmitting the information transfer unit provided by the selected path queue.

摘要: An interconnection system is described where data lanes may be exchanged between lines at intervals along a transmission path so that the differential time delay between bits on a plurality of the lines is reduced when determined at a receiving location. The data lanes may be bound to the lines through the operation of a configurable switch, or by a configurable switch in conjunction with predetermined manufactured connections, or a combination of the techniques. The wiring of a connectorized node module, which may include a memory device, may be configured so that the differential time delay between pairs of input lines of a node, as measured at the output of a node, is reduced.
