ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING FILE SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17982175 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING FILE SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device that can classify files as either "hot" or "cold" based on their write patterns. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • An electronic device includes a memory, storage, and processor.
  • The processor writes a file of an application in the memory in response to a file input request.
  • It identifies the write pattern of the file when it is first written in the memory.
  • The write pattern is updated in the memory.
  • The file is classified as either a hot file or a cold file based on its write pattern when it is copied from the memory to the storage.
  • The processor stores the classification result of the file together with the file in the storage.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Data storage systems can benefit from efficient file classification to optimize storage and retrieval.
  • Cloud computing platforms can use this technology to manage and prioritize file storage based on usage patterns.
  • Mobile devices can improve performance by identifying and managing frequently accessed files.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient file classification helps in organizing and managing large amounts of data.
  • It allows for better utilization of storage resources by prioritizing frequently accessed files.
  • It improves overall system performance by optimizing file storage and retrieval.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved storage efficiency by classifying files based on their usage patterns.
  • Enhanced system performance by prioritizing frequently accessed files.
  • Better utilization of storage resources by optimizing file storage and retrieval.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to one or more embodiments, an electronic device may include a memory, a storage, and a processor. The processor may be configured to write a file of an application in the memory in response to a file input request of the application, identify a write pattern of the file at a first time of writing the file of the application in the memory, update the write pattern in the memory, classify the file as one of a hot file and a cold file based on the write pattern of the file at a second time of copying the file of the application from the memory to the storage, and control the processor to: store a classification result of the file together with the file in the storage.
