Abstract:
An apparatus comprises a mass storage unit and a plurality of circuit modules including a machine learning module, a programmable state machine module, and input/output interfaces. Switching circuitry is configured to selectively couple the circuit modules. Configuration circuitry is configured to access configuration data from the mass storage unit and to operate the switching circuitry to connect the circuit modules according to the configuration data.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a heat pipe with a fluid path. A first part of the fluid path is thermally coupled to a first region of a higher temperature and a second part of the fluid path thermally is coupled to a second region of a lower temperature. A difference between the higher temperature and the lower temperature induces a flow of a magnetic fluid in the fluid path. A switchable magnetic device is magnetically coupled to the fluid path. Activation of the switchable magnetic device reduces the flow of the magnetic fluid in the fluid path, which reduces heat transfer from the first region to the second region.
Abstract:
A connection between a user device and a network server is established. Via the connection, a deep learning network is formed for a processing task. A first portion of the deep learning network operates on the user device and a second portion of the deep learning network operates on the network server. Based on cooperation between the user device and the network server, a boundary between the first portion and the second portion of the deep learning network is dynamically modified based on a change in a performance indicator that could affect the processing task
Abstract:
A system and associated method of using may generally have at least a mobile data storage device with a controller directing data to first and second tiers of memory. The first tier of memory can have at least boot data pre-fetched from the second tier of memory with the boot data including at least metadata and personalized user data.

Abstract:
Method and apparatus for managing data in a memory. In accordance with some embodiments, input write data having a selected logical address are stored in a rewriteable non-volatile (NV) buffer. A copy of the input write data is transferred to an NV main memory using a sloppy write process. A verify operation is subsequently performed to verify successful transfer of the copy of the input write data to the NV main memory using a hash value generated responsive to the input write data in the NV buffer.

Abstract:
A data object is received at a storage compute device in response to a request from a host. A requirement of the data object is determined based on a computation to be performed on the data object. The requirement related to at least speed and capacity of media used to store the data object. A tier is selected from the storage compute device based on speed and capacity characteristics of the selected tier corresponding to the requirement of the data object. The data object is stored in the selected tier.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for managing data in a memory. In accordance with some embodiments, a non-volatile (NV) buffer is adapted to store input write data having a selected logical address. A write circuit is adapted to transfer a copy of the input write data to an NV main memory while retaining the stored input write data in the NV buffer. A verify circuit is adapted to perform a verify operation at the conclusion of a predetermined elapsed time interval to verify successful transfer of the copy of the input write data to the NV main memory. The input write data are retained in the NV buffer until successful transfer is verified.
