DEFERRED ZONE ADJUSTMENT IN ZONE MEMORY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17899801 titled 'DEFERRED ZONE ADJUSTMENT IN ZONE MEMORY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
- Various embodiments of the invention involve deferring adjustment of a zone in a memory system or sub-system that supports zones. - Some embodiments allow for deferred adjustment of a zone based on detecting an error in a block of an unassigned block set, which can be tracked using a counter.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in: - Memory systems in electronic devices - Data storage systems - Computer servers
Problems Solved
- Errors in memory blocks can be detected and addressed without immediate adjustment of the entire zone. - Efficient management of memory zones without disrupting overall system operation.
Benefits
- Improved error detection and correction in memory systems. - Enhanced reliability and performance of memory subsystems. - More efficient use of memory resources.
Original Abstract Submitted
Various embodiments provide for deferring adjustment of a zone in a memory system or sub-system that supports zones. In particular, some embodiments provide for deferred adjustment of a zone based on detection of an error in a block of an unassigned block set, which can be tracked using a counter.
