Abstract:
An electronic system includes: an interface block of a storage device configured to process system information from a system device; a memory block of the storage device, coupled to the interface block, partitioned by the interface block configured to process the system information for partitioning the memory block; and a storage block of a storage device, coupled to the memory block, configured to access a data block of the storage block provided to the system device.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments provide a method for managing a transaction for a memory module in a computer system. The memory modules have latencies. A busyness level of the memory module for the transaction is determined. A projected response time for the transaction is predicted based on the busyness level. In some embodiments whether to perform a context switching for the transaction is determined based on the projected response time and context switching policies. The context switching may be performed based on this determination.
Abstract:
A storage device capable of providing instructions to modify a cooling system in support of its own operations is described. The storage device may include data storage to store data. The storage device may also include one or more operation sensors to determine a change in the operating conditions of the storage device. Finally, the storage device may include a transmitter to transmit the change in the operation conditions of the storage device to a Thermal Management System (TMS).
Abstract:
An embodiment includes a module, comprising: a memory bus interface; circuitry; and a controller coupled to the memory bus interface and the circuitry, and configured to: collect meta-data associated with the circuitry; and enable access to the meta-data in response to a memory access received through the memory bus interface.

Abstract:
A Solid State Drive (SSD) (110) is disclosed. The SSD (110) may include storage (218) for data, and reception circuitry (203) to receive various instructions and data. The reception circuitry (203) may receive an instruction (257) from a host machine (105) to perform garbage collection, along with a selected P/E strategy (260). The SSD (110) may include garbage collection logic (209) to perform garbage collection, possibly with a delayed Program operation if an adaptive P/E strategy (1110) is selected. The SSD (110) may also include a mapping table (221) that may identify which pages were not Programmed before victim blocks (233, 236) were erased, and therefore require replication during a delayed Program operation.
