PERFORMANCE-DRIVEN TIMEOUT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338249 titled 'PERFORMANCE-DRIVEN TIMEOUT
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a storage system with a management system and a storage processor connected via a network. The storage processor receives instructions, identifies tasks, stores timeout thresholds for tasks, selects tasks, and updates timeout thresholds based on resource utilization. The management system transmits instructions, retrieves timeout thresholds, detects expired thresholds, and aborts operations when necessary.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Storage system with management system and storage processor
- Dynamic updating of timeout thresholds based on resource utilization
- Ability to select and prioritize tasks for efficient operation
- Automatic detection and aborting of operations when timeout thresholds are expired
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in various industries such as data storage, cloud computing, network management, and server operations. It can improve efficiency, resource utilization, and task prioritization in storage systems.
Problems Solved: This technology addresses issues related to task management, resource allocation, and operation efficiency in storage systems. It ensures tasks are completed within specified timeframes and resources are utilized optimally.
Benefits:
- Improved efficiency and performance in storage systems
- Enhanced resource utilization and task prioritization
- Automated detection and resolution of operation delays
Commercial Applications: Title: Dynamic Timeout Threshold Management System for Storage Processors This technology can be commercially used in data centers, cloud service providers, IT companies, and server management firms. It can optimize storage operations, improve task management, and enhance overall system performance.
Prior Art: For prior art related to dynamic timeout threshold management systems in storage processors, researchers can explore patents in the field of storage systems, task management, and resource optimization.
Frequently Updated Research: Researchers in the field of storage systems and data management may frequently update studies on dynamic timeout threshold management systems, resource utilization algorithms, and task prioritization techniques.
Questions about Storage System Technology: 1. How does the dynamic updating of timeout thresholds improve storage system performance? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in different storage environments?
Original Abstract Submitted
a storage system, comprising: a management system; and a storage processor that is coupled to the management system via a communications network, wherein the storage processor is configured to: receive an instruction to perform an operation; identify a plurality of tasks that are associated with the operation; store, in a database, a respective timeout threshold for each of the plurality of tasks; select one of the plurality of tasks; and update the respective timeout threshold of the selected task based on a utilization of a resource, the respective timeout threshold being updated while the operation is being performed by the storage processor; and wherein the management system is configured to: transmit the instruction to the storage processor; retrieve the respective timeout threshold of the selected task; detect whether the respective timeout threshold of the selected task is expired; when the respective timeout threshold is expired, abort the operation.
