Abstract: In various embodiments, a hierarchical memory device having multiple interfaces with different memory formats includes a Phase Change Memory (PCM). An input port and an output port connect the hierarchical memory device in a daisy-chain hierarchy and/or a hierarchical tree structure with other memories. Standard non-hierarchical memory devices can also attach to the output port of the hierarchical memory device. Other embodiments are discussed.

Abstract: An autonomous memory device in a distributed memory sub-system can receive a database downloaded from a host controller. The autonomous memory device can pass configuration routing information and initiate instructions to disperse portions of the database to neighboring die using an interface that handles inter-die communication. Information is then extracted from the pool of autonomous memory and passed through a host interface to the host controller.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a system have been disclosed. An embodiment of the method includes an autonomous memory device receiving a set of instructions, the memory device executing the set of instructions, combining the set of instructions with any data recovered from the memory device in response to the set of instructions into a packet, and transmitting the packet from the memory device.

Abstract: A method includes calculating a first syndrome of a codeword read from a memory location under a first set of conditions and calculating a second syndrome of the codeword read from the memory location under a second set of conditions. The method also includes analyzing the first and second syndromes and applying one of the first and second syndromes to the codeword to find the codeword having a minimum number of errors.

Abstract: Methods and systems operate to receive a plurality of search requests for searching a database in a memory system. The search requests can be stored in a FIFO queue and searches can be subsequently generated for each search request. The resulting plurality of searches can be executed substantially in parallel on the database. A respective indication is transmitted to a requesting host when either each respective search is complete or each respective search has generated search results.
