Non-Volatile Memory And Method With Accelerated Post-Write Read To Manage Errors

Data errors in non-volatile memory inevitably increase with usage and with higher density of bits stored per cell. The memory is configured to have a first portion operating with less error but of lower density storage, and a second portion operating with a higher density but less robust storage. An error management provides reading and checking the copy after copying to the second portion. If the copy has excessive error bits, it is repeated in a different location either in the second or first portion. The reading and checking of the copy is accelerated by reading only a sample of it. The sample is selected from a subset of the copy having its own ECC and estimated to represent a worst error rate among the copy it is sampling. One embodiment has the sample taken from one bit of each multi-bit memory cell of a group.

Multipoint geostatistics method using branch runlength compression

ActiveUS20090164182A1Improves known multipoint geostatistics method shortcomingShort timeDigital computer detailsSeismologyRelevant informationAlgorithm
A multipoint geostatistics computer-implemented method for modeling of discrete properties, comprising acquiring by a computer software program a training image made from at least one dimensional array of discrete property values, the values depicting the spatial relationship and variability considered to be typical of a n-dimensional surface to be modeled; constructing a search tree, the tree representing the probability of occurrence of combinations of values of a discrete property value, the construction being performed by counting these occurrences in the training image. The non-branching sequences of the search tree are compressed to what essentially amounts to a single node, by keeping only the relevant information the sequences contain.

Access to a wide memory

A processing system includes a processor and a physical memory (500) with a single-size memory port (505) for accessing data in the memory. The processor is arranged to operate on data of at least a first data size and a smaller second data size. The first data size is equal to or smaller than the size of memory port. The processing system including at least one data register (514) of the first data size connected to the memory port (505), and at least one data port (525) of the second data size connected to the data register (525) and the processor for enabling access to data elements of the second size.

Apparatus and method for performing intra prediction for image decoder

Provided is an apparatus and method for performing intra prediction for an image decoder, in which by use of horizontal / vertical blocks adjacent to image data input from an external device, the intra prediction is performed in parallel with respect to 16×16 luminance component and 4×4 luminance component of the image data and then with respect to chrominance component, thereby maximizing efficiency of system to not only reduce execution time and hardware cost but also increase processing speed.

Non-Volatile Memory and Method with Post-Write Read and Adaptive Re-Write to Manage Errors

Data errors in non-volatile memory inevitably increase with usage and with higher density of bits stored per cell. For acceptable quality assurance, conventional error correction codes (“ECC”) have to correct a maximum number of error bits up to the far tail end of a statistical population. The present memory is configured to have a first portion operating with less error but of lower density storage, and a second portion operating with a higher density but less robust storage. If excessive error bits (at the far tail-end) occur after writing a group of data to the second portion, the data is adaptively rewritten to the first portion which will produce less error bits. Preferably, the data is initially written to a cache also in the first portion to provide source data for any rewrites. Thus, a more efficient ECC not requiring to correcting for the far tail end can be used.

Partial key hashing memory

A method and apparatus wherein only a partial key is stored in a hashing table is disclosed. By storing a partial key as opposed to storing the entire original key, less data is required to be stored in the hash table. This reduces the attendant memory costs. The reduction in memory requirement does not degrade the hash functionalities whatsoever. Hashing conflicts can be fully resolved by consulting the partial key.

Image processing system, image forming system, and recording medium

A maximum color identifying portion 41 identifies a maximum color from coloring material colors used to reproduce a color of a line segment after color conversion into coloring material colors by a character / line color converting portion 31 is applied to the rasterized image signal. A structure deciding portion 42 outputs a screen parameter flag that controls a screen parameter in compliance with the identified maximum color and a drawing direction of the line segment such that the screen process in the maximum color is executed at a screen angle, that is different from the drawing direction of the line segment, in a character / line screen processing portion 35. The character / line screen processing portion 35 applies the screen process to the image in accordance with the screen parameter flag by using the screen parameter at the screen angle that is different from the drawing direction of the line segment. Accordingly, disappearance of the line segment due to the screen process is avoided.
