Abstract:
A computing system a storage device and a file system. The storage device includes a storage area having flash memory. The file system is configured to divide the storage area into multiple zones, multiple sections and multiple blocks, and to write a log in each block. The file system includes a block allocation module. The block allocation module is configured to allocate a target block, in which a log is to be written, by a continuous block allocation method according to which a block having a continuous address with a most recently selected block is set as the target block. The block allocation module is further configured to find a free section from the multiple sections when it is not possible to allocate the target block by the continuous block allocation method, and to set a block in the found free section as the target block.

The electronic device obtains a first histogram regarding a difference in gradation between adjacent pixels of an input image based on the first maximum output brightness, obtains a second histogram regarding a difference in gradation between the adjacent pixels of the input image based on the second maximum output brightness, obtains a third histogram regarding a difference in brightness between the adjacent pixels of the input image based on the first HVS recognition information, obtains a fourth histogram regarding a difference in brightness between the adjacent pixels of the input image based on the second HVS recognition information, and obtains a brightness value regarding the input image corresponding to the second maximum output brightness based on a difference between a first value obtained based on information on the first and third histograms and a second value obtained based on the second and fourth histograms.
Abstract:
A system includes: a nonvolatile memory; a memory controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory, the memory controller including a first buffer memory for temporarily storing write data to be written to the nonvolatile memory; and a second buffer memory having a lower operational speed and a higher memory capacity than the first buffer memory. The memory controller is configured to transmit the write data from the first buffer memory to the second buffer memory and to the nonvolatile memory, and to release an operational state of the first buffer memory after transmitting the write data from the first buffer memory to the second buffer memory and to the nonvolatile memory. Writing additional write data to the first buffer memory is prohibited prior to the release of the operational state of the first buffer memory, and is permitted after the release of the operational state of the first buffer memory.
Abstract:
A storage device may include a plurality of memory cells arranged in pages and blocks, each page including a row of memory cells, and each block including a plurality of pages of memory cells. The storage device may include a memory device, such as a nonvolatile memory device, which includes these items. A data recovery method for the storage device may include receiving by the storage device a first command corresponding to a first selected data recovery scheme. Based on the first command: a first target page scheme for performing error detection on the plurality of blocks is applied, target pages are read using the first target page scheme, and an amount of errors in each read target page is detected. In addition, it may be determined that a target page of a first block has at least a first threshold amount of errors, and based on the determination, data recovery for the first block may be performed by relocating all data stored in the first block to another block. Further, it may be determined that no read page in a second block has at least the first threshold amount of errors, and as a result, the data stored in the second block can be maintained.

Provided are a semiconductor device and a semiconductor system. A semiconductor device includes a non-volatile memory; a device interface circuit which receives an input/output (I/O) request from a host; and a device controller which executes a data access according to the I/O request on the non-volatile memory, and transmits an interrupt to the host a predetermined time before completion of the data access.
Abstract:
A method of operating a storage device includes; counting a number of fast cycles for the memory block when a program interval between two successive program operations directed to memory cells of the memory block is less than a minimal program interval, and/or when an erase interval between two successive erase operations directed to the memory block is less than a minimal erase interval, and selecting the memory block to be erased by an erase operation or selecting memory cells of the memory block to be programmed by a program operation in response to the counted number of fast cycles for the memory block.
Abstract:
A scheduler controls execution in a memory of operation requests received in an input request set (IRS) by providing a corresponding output request set (ORS). The scheduler includes zone standby units having a one-to-one relationship with corresponding zones such that each zone standby unit stores an operation request. The scheduler also includes an output processing unit that determines a processing sequence for the operation requests stored in the zone standby units to provide the ORS.
