摘要： The necklace clasp fastener for a string of beads consists of a male bead member, and a female bead member, that do not have any visible loop or eyelets for assembling and holding a string of beads together when the male and female bead members are snapped together. The resulting bead configured clasp is almost undetectable from the outside of the beaded necklace which creates an unbroken, unified string of beads for a much more aesthetic and beautiful piece of jewelry. The improved clasp of the invention provides a safety feature to guard against breakage. The two parts are designed to snap together with enough force to hold the necklace on the wearer under normal wear and use. If, however, the necklace catches on to something, the clasp will release easily from the wearer instead of breaking the necklace, and releasing the beads all over the place.

摘要： A method, system and computer-readable medium are provided for reading information from a memory unit. A request may be received to read information from a set of memory cells in the memory unit. At least one read threshold in an initial set of read thresholds may be perturbed to generate a perturbed set of read thresholds. The set of memory cells may be read using the perturbed set of read thresholds to provide a read result. The performance of said reading may be evaluated using the perturbed set of read thresholds. The at least one read threshold may be iteratively perturbed for each sequential read operation that the read performance is evaluated to be sub-optimal.

摘要： A method, computer readable medium storing instructions and system for managing flash memory. Data sector are received and each is written into a data block of a buffer of a non-volatile memory device. Pointers in a data management structure are created for each data sector corresponding to an associated logical block and a storage location of the data sector in the buffer. When a predefined criterion is fulfilled before the buffer becomes full, a number of logical blocks to be merged is determined and data sectors corresponding to the number of logical blocks to be merged are written from the buffer to a primary non-volatile data storage memory of the non-volatile memory device.

摘要： A system and method for adjusting read threshold voltage values, for example, in a read circuit internal to a memory device. The quality of an associated read result may be estimated for each read threshold voltage value used to read memory cells. Only read results estimated to have sufficient quality may be allowed to pass to storage. The read threshold voltage value may be adjusted for subsequent read operations, for example, if the associated read result is estimated to have insufficient quality. The read threshold voltage value may be iteratively adjusted, for example, until a read result is estimated to have sufficient quality.

摘要： A method, system and computer-readable medium are provided for reading information from a memory unit. A read instruction may be received to read information from a set of memory cells in the memory unit. A data structure storing sets of read thresholds may be searched for a set of read thresholds based on one or more characteristic value(s) of the set of memory cells. If the set of read thresholds is found, the set of memory cells may be read to execute the read instruction using the found set of read thresholds. The set of read thresholds may be thresholds which were previously used to successfully read a set of cells having the same or similar characteristic value(s).
