TELEMETRY-CAPABLE MEMORY SUB-SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17896883 titled 'TELEMETRY-CAPABLE MEMORY SUB-SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for maintaining an access counter associated with a segment of a memory device. When an access notification for a first line of the segment is received, the access type is identified and the access counter is updated accordingly. A memory management scheme is then implemented based on the value of the access counter.
- An access counter is maintained for a segment of a memory device.
- Access notifications for specific lines of the segment trigger updates to the access counter based on the type of access.
- The access counter value influences the implementation of a memory management scheme.
Potential Applications
- Memory management in computer systems
- Cache optimization in processors
- Resource allocation in embedded systems
Problems Solved
- Efficient memory access tracking
- Improved performance through optimized memory management
- Enhanced system reliability by monitoring access patterns
Benefits
- Better utilization of memory resources
- Increased system efficiency
- Real-time monitoring and adjustment of memory access patterns
Original Abstract Submitted
An access counter associated with a segment of a memory device is maintained. An access notification for a first line of the segment is received. An access type associated with the access notification is identified. A first value of the access counter is changed by a second value based on the access type. Based on the first value of the access counter, a memory management scheme is implemented.
