    摘要: According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a semiconductor memory and a controller. The semiconductor memory includes first blocks including a memory cell capable of storing data of one bit, a second block including a memory cell capable of storing data of two or more bits. The semiconductor memory stores first data in a first latch circuit, and second data in a second latch circuit, and writes the first data into one of the first blocks in page units, and the second data into one of the first blocks in page units. The semiconductor memory writes data of at least two pages into the second block, using the first data stored in the first latch circuit and the second data stored in the second latch circuit.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a memory system is connectable to a host. The memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller. The nonvolatile memory includes a plurality of blocks. The controller is electrically coupled to the nonvolatile memory. The controller controls the nonvolatile memory. When receiving, from the host, a first command for changing a state of an allocated block to a reallocatable state in a case where a second command that is yet to be executed or being executed involving read of data from the allocated block has been received from the host, the controller changes the state of the allocated block to the reallocatable state after the second command is finished.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, an image data of a measurement object including a pattern is acquired. First data is acquired by extracting a contour of an element in composition of the pattern from the image data. Second data that specifies a design data of the measurement object and the pattern of the measurement object is acquired. The design data includes a pattern data. A measurement pattern is extracted by using the first data and the second data. An evaluation value for the measurement pattern with respect to the design data is calculated based on the difference between the measurement pattern and the design data.
