METHOD AND DEVICE OF PROCESSING READ/WRITE REQUEST - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17979901 Titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE OF PROCESSING READ/WRITE REQUEST'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes techniques for processing read/write requests to a storage device. It involves determining the average response time for these requests within a specific time period and comparing it to a predetermined threshold. Based on this comparison, the read/write request upper limit, which represents the maximum number of requests in the queue, is adjusted. This allows for dynamic adjustment of the storage device's capacity based on its current response time, preventing slow processing caused by a buildup of requests.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques for processing read/write requests involve determining an average response time for read/write requests to a storage device within a predetermined time period, and comparing the average response time with at least one predetermined threshold. Such techniques further involve adjusting a read/write request upper limit of the storage device based on the comparison between the average response time and the at least one predetermined threshold. Here, the read/write request upper limit indicates the maximum number of read/write requests in a read/write request queue for the storage device. In this way, the read/write request upper limit of a storage device may be dynamically adjusted based on a current response time of the storage device for processing read/write requests, and slow read/write processing caused by the accumulation of read/write requests at one storage device can be avoided.
