MEMORY SYSTEM AND METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240311003 titled 'MEMORY SYSTEM AND METHOD

The abstract of this patent application describes a memory controller that includes a parameter table with entries corresponding to superblock address ranges. The memory controller translates logical addresses of data to be written into superblock addresses, calculates compression parameters for the data, writes these parameters to the parameter table, and compresses the data using the parameter table.

  • Simplified Explanation:

- Memory controller with parameter table for superblock address ranges. - Translates logical addresses to superblock addresses. - Calculates compression parameters for data. - Writes parameters to table and compresses data.

  • Key Features and Innovation:

- Parameter table for superblock address ranges. - Translation of logical addresses to superblock addresses. - Compression parameter calculation for data. - Compression of data using parameter table.

  • Potential Applications:

- Data storage systems. - Memory management in computing devices. - Data compression technologies.

  • Problems Solved:

- Efficient memory management. - Improved data compression. - Streamlined data writing processes.

  • Benefits:

- Enhanced data storage capabilities. - Faster data processing. - Optimal memory utilization.

  • Commercial Applications:

- Data centers. - Cloud computing services. - IoT devices.

  • Questions about Memory Controller:

1. How does the memory controller handle different types of data for compression? 2. What are the potential limitations of using a parameter table for compression in memory management systems?

  • Frequently Updated Research:

Original Abstract Submitted

according to one embodiment, a memory controller includes a parameter table having entries which respectively correspond to superblock address ranges. the memory controller translates a logical address of data to be written to the memory into a superblock address, calculates compression parameters which correspond to items of data to be written to superblock addresses, writes the compression parameters to the parameter table, and compress data using the parameter table.
