    摘要: A method for controlling a storage system and the storage system using this method are disclosed. In the storage system, at least two memory units share an I/O bus. The shared I/O bus transfers information for each memory unit to execute an operation. The operation has at least one high priority cycle and at least one low priority cycle. When a low priority cycle is overlapped with a high priority cycle, the low priority cycle is suspended, and the high priority cycle is operated first. After the high priority cycle is finished, the suspended low priority cycle is then resumed. By doing so, the shared I/O bus may be used by one memory unit during a busy cycle for another memory unit, during which the latter memory unit does not use the I/O bus. Therefore, the I/O bus can be more efficiently used.

    摘要: Methods for updating and recovering user data of a non-volatile memory array such as a flash memory are disclosed. An indication for indicating a mapping relationship for a logical address is established when original user data of the logical addresses is updated into new user data. The indication records new pointers, which record the mapping relationships between logical addresses and physical addresses storing the new user data of the logical addresses. Alternatively, the indication records memory positions of the non-volatile memory array which are defined as designated memory positions and a sequence for using these designated memory positions.

    摘要: A system and method of controlling data recording process of optical recording medium in a sequential writing are described. The control system comprises an information unit, a data-preparing unit and a recording controller. The information unit generates an information signal. The data-preparing unit prepares the data for recording. The data is then transformed into a writing signal according to the information signal. The recording controller controls the data-preparing unit to adjust the writing signal while acquiring the information signal during a sequential writing. Thus, the recording controller adjusts the writing signal according to the information signal. The data-preparing unit outputs the adjusted writing signal having desired recording area and undesired recording area and the adjusted writing signal is recorded on the optical recording medium during the sequential writing. The adjusted writing signal is outputted to OPU. The OPU performs a recording process of the optical recording medium.

The control system for controlling a recording process of an optical recording medium comprises an information unit, a data-preparing unit and a recording controller. The information unit generates an information signal. The data-preparing unit is coupled to the information unit receives data from a data source and prepares the data for recording. The data is then transformed into a writing signal according to the information signal. The recording controller coupled to the information unit and the data-preparing unit controls the data-preparing unit to adjust the writing signal while acquiring the information signal from the information unit during a sequential writing. Thus, the recording controller adjusts the writing signal according to the information signal. The data-preparing unit outputs the adjusted writing signal having desired recording area and undesired recording area and the adjusted writing signal is recorded on the optical recording medium during the sequential writing. The adjusted writing signal is outputted to OPU. The OPU then emits light corresponding to the adjusted writing signal to perform a recording process of the optical recording medium during the sequential writing.
