==COMPUTING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18081519 titled 'COMPUTING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME

==Simplified Explanation==

The present technology is related to an electronic device that includes a garbage collection controller and an idle time processor. The garbage collection controller sends commands to a storage device to request health information, garbage collection cost information, and to instruct the storage device to perform garbage collection. The idle time processor processes information on the idle time of the storage device.

* The electronic device includes a garbage collection controller and an idle time processor.
* The garbage collection controller sends commands to the storage device to request health information.
* The health information includes the host write amount and the storage device write amount.
* The garbage collection controller also requests garbage collection cost information based on the health information.
* The garbage collection controller instructs the storage device to perform garbage collection based on the garbage collection cost information and the idle time of the storage device.
* The idle time processor processes information on the idle time of the storage device.

== Potential Applications ==
* This technology can be applied in electronic devices that use storage devices, such as computers, smartphones, and tablets.
* It can be used to optimize the garbage collection process in storage devices, improving their performance and efficiency.

== Problems Solved ==
* The technology solves the problem of inefficient garbage collection in storage devices.
* It addresses the issue of storage devices becoming slow or unresponsive due to excessive garbage collection operations.

== Benefits ==
* The technology improves the performance and efficiency of storage devices.
* It helps to prolong the lifespan of storage devices by optimizing garbage collection operations.
* It enhances the overall user experience by preventing slowdowns and unresponsiveness in electronic devices.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

The present technology relates to an electronic device. According to the present technology, a host device may include a garbage collection controller and an idle time processor. The garbage collection controller may provide, to a storage device, a health information request command for requesting health information including a host write amount and a storage device write amount, provide, to the storage device, a first garbage collection control command for requesting garbage collection cost information based on the health information, provide, to the storage device, a second garbage collection control command for instructing to perform garbage collection based on the garbage collection cost information and an idle time of the storage device. The idle time processor may process information on the idle time.
