The present invention relates to a fine-granularity files and directory edition management method based on snapshots, belonging to the multi-version document system field. The present invention separates a name space consisting of files and dirnames in a whole file system from an edition space representing the generating periods of different editions, and adopts relatively independent strategies to execute management, forming a hierarchical two-dimensional structure, i.e. forming a hierarchical structure from a root directory to a file in the name space; in the edition space, the editions of files and directory are organized through an index structure chronologically, forming a hierarchical structure in the edition space. The retrieval of the name space adopts an index strategy based on dynamic hash. The retrieval of the edition space adopts an index strategy based on a red-black tree. The directory edition and file edition respectively adopt a red-black tree structure variant aiming at the respective characteristics. The present invention can greatly improve the usability and the performance of the system, and controls the amount of consumption of time and space resulting from the maintenance of historical editions in an acceptable scope.

Methods and apparatus for improving read/modify/write operations

Improving a process in which information is read, modified, and written, and in which reading information is more costly (e.g., slower) than writing information. The information may be pixel information from a second (or remote) image and the modification may be a blending operation with a first (or local) image. The pixel information of the second (or remote) image may be stored in a video display frame buffer at a display adapter. The display adapter may be coupled via a bus, such as a PCI bus for example, with a CPU (or other machine) which performs the modification, such as image blending for example. This process is improved by limiting the number of reads of the pixel information of the second (or remote) image. Further, reads may be combined when doing so improves read performance and when alignment conditions are met. All modify and all or some write steps may be performed after all read steps have been performed, rather than performing all three (3) steps on a pixel-by-pixel, or pixel vector-by-pixel vector basis.

High-Performance Indexing For Data-Intensive Systems

Aspects of the present invention provide high-performance indexing for data-intensive systems in which “slicing” is used to organize indexing data on an SSD such that related entries are located together. Slicing enables combining multiple reads into a single “slice read” of related items, offering high read performance. Small in-memory indexes, such as hash tables, bloom filters or LSH tables, may be used as buffers for insert operations to resolve slow random writes on the SSD. When full, these buffers are written to the SSD. The internal architecture of the SSD may also be leveraged to achieve higher performance via parallelism. Such parallelism may occur at the channel-level, the package-level, the die-level and / or the plane-level. Consequently, memory and compute resources are freed for use by higher layer applications, and better performance may be achieved.

A method for rating an information recording medium according to the present invention includes the steps of: receiving a digital read signal, which has been generated based on an analog read signal representing information that has been read from the information recording medium, and shaping the waveform of the digital read signal; subjecting the shaped digital read signal to maximum likelihood decoding, thereby generating a binarized signal showing a result of the maximum likelihood decoding; and calculating the quality of the digital read signal based on the shaped digital read signal and the binarized signal.

File merging method and device

The embodiment of the invention provides a file merging method and device. The file merging method comprises the steps of carrying out partitioning on sections in the charge of nodes in a cluster system according to key value information of user data, determining that each node meets a first triggering condition, reading at least two first files from disks of the nodes to caches corresponding to the nodes, respectively determining the target partition which each key value belongs to according to the key values of the data, corresponding to users, stored in the first files, merging the data with the same key value, and storing the merged data corresponding to the key values into the corresponding target partitions. Partitioning is carried out on the sections in the nodes, the data are merged once, and the data with the same key value are stored in the same partition. In the inquiry process, the partitions where the data are located are determined according to the key values, and then the files in the partitions are scanned. As the number of the files in each partition is small, data screening only needs to be carried out on fewer files, and therefore the read performance is improved.

Hash table operations with improved cache utilization

Method and apparatus for building large memory-resident hash tables on general purpose processors. The hash table is broken into bands that are small enough to fit within the processor cache. A log is associated with each band and updates to the hash table are written to the appropriate memory-resident log rather than being directly applied to the hash table. When a log is sufficiently full, updates from the log are applied to the hash table insuring good cache reuse by virtue of false sharing of cache lines. Despite the increased overhead in writing and reading the logs, overall performance is improved due to improved cache line reuse.

Non-volatile memory architecture to improve read performance

A memory cell array is physically divided into an even number of sectors, with each pair of sectors sharing read circuitry. The outputs of the shared read circuitry are commonly connected to form data lines spanning the height of the array, which are input to global sense amplifiers. A two-stage sensing scheme is employed, with first stage and global sense amplifiers. The driving capability of the first stage sense amplifier can be used to decrease the time to charge or discharge the data lines, which reduces the total signal development time and consequently improves read performance. Granularity of the array can be adjusted by dividing groups and sub-groups of memory cells within a sector accordingly. In a read operation, the bit line in the opposite sector at the same column location is used as reference bit line, which greatly improves matching of bit line loading for the sensing.
