SYNCHRONIZED REQUEST HANDLING AT A MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17899197 titled 'SYNCHRONIZED REQUEST HANDLING AT A MEMORY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
- System and techniques for synchronized request handling at a memory device are described. - A request is received at the memory device, indicating a memory address corresponding to a set of cache lines and a single cache line in the set. - The memory device maintains a deferred list for the set of cache lines and a set of lists, with each member corresponding to one cache line. - The memory device tests the deferred list to determine if it is not empty, and places the request in the deferred list.
Potential Applications
- Improving memory access efficiency in computer systems. - Enhancing cache management in memory devices. - Optimizing data retrieval processes in electronic devices.
Problems Solved
- Synchronization of request handling at a memory device. - Efficient management of cache lines and requests. - Streamlining memory access operations.
Benefits
- Faster data retrieval and processing. - Reduced latency in memory access. - Improved overall system performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
System and techniques for synchronized request handling at a memory device are described herein. A request is received at the memory device. Here, the request indicates a memory address corresponding to a set of cache lines and a single cache line in the set of cache lines. The memory device maintains a deferred list for the set of cache lines and a set of lists with each member of the set of lists corresponding to one cache line in the set of cache lines. The memory device tests the deferred list to determine that the deferred list is not empty and places the request in the deferred list.
