An information processing apparatus includes: a first memory; a second memory different in processing speed from the first memory; and a processor including: a memory controller that is coupled to the first memory and the second memory and that controls an access to the first memory and an access to the second memory; and a plurality of controllers that access to the first memory or the second memory. The processor is configured to suppress a writing frequency of data into the second memory by controlling one or more first controllers that access the second memory among the plurality of controllers in accordance with a result of monitoring a state of writing the data into the second memory.

A nonvolatile memory device includes a nonvolatile memory, a volatile memory being a cache memory of the nonvolatile memory, and a first controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory. The nonvolatile memory device further includes a second controller configured to receive a device write command and an address, and transmit, to the volatile memory through a first bus, a first read command and the address and a first write command and the address sequentially, and transmit a second write command and the address to the first controller through a second bus, in response to the reception of the device write command and the address.

Systems and methods are provided for implementing a self-adaptive batch dataset partitioning control process which is utilized in conjunction with a distributed deep learning model training process to optimize load balancing among a set of accelerator resources. An iterative batch size tuning process is configured to determine an optimal job partition ratio for partitioning mini-batch datasets into sub-batch datasets for processing by a set of hybrid accelerator resources, wherein the sub-batch datasets are partitioned into optimal batch sizes for processing by respective accelerator resources to minimize a time for completing the deep learning model training process.

In a storage medium management method, a controller receives an address space request that requests the provision of an address space in a target storage medium for an operating system, the target storage medium having two different types of storage media. The Controller determines a first address space in the target storage medium based on the address space request, and a physical address of the first address space to a target virtual address, which is managed by the operating system. The controller then provides to an operating system a first address space requested by the address space request, such that the first address space is directly managed by an operating system, without manual configuration or restart of an electronic device.

An integrated circuit (122) includes an on-chip boot ROM (132) holding boot code, a non-volatile security identification element (140) having non-volatile information determining a less secure type or more secure type, and a processor (130). The processor (130) is coupled to the on-chip boot ROM (132) and to the non-volatile security identification element (140) to selectively execute boot code depending on the non-volatile information of the non-volatile security identification element (140). Other technology such as processors, methods of operation, processes of manufacture, wireless communications apparatus, and wireless handsets are also disclosed.

Provided are a non-volatile dual inline memory module (NVDIMM) supporting a DRAM cache mode and an operation method of the NVDIMM. The NVDIMM includes a DRAM chip, an NVM chip, and a controller that controls the DRAM chip to operate as a cache memory of the NVM chip. The controller sends a read command to the DRAM chip with reference to a cache address of data requested to be written from a host to the NVM chip, and sends a write command to the NVM chip with reference to an address of the data requested to be written at a time point when a read latency (RL) of the DRAM chip and a write latency (WL) of the NVM chip coincide with each other.

In a mobile device, processes of an application can be monitored and scored for initial data distribution. Specifically, a method can include monitoring processes of an application, and scoring objects or components used by the processes to determine placement of the objects or components in memory during initiation of the application. The method can also include, during initiation of the application, loading, into a first portion of the memory, at least partially, the objects or components scored at a first level. The method can also include, during initiation of the application, loading, into a second portion of the memory, at least partially, the objects or components scored at a second level. The objects or components scored at the second level can be less critical to the application than the objects or components scored at the first level.

A memory module comprises a volatile memory subsystem including DRAM, a non-volatile memory subsystem including Flash memory, and a module control device. The Flash memory includes main Flash providing a main Flash memory space and scratch Flash providing a scratch Flash memory space. The module control device is configured to receive a request from the memory controller to move one or more segments of data in a first Flash block in the main Flash to the DRAM and to, for each respective segment of data: select a respective set of pages in the DRAM; transfer respective data stored in the respective set of pages from the DRAM to a corresponding segment in the scratch Flash; and transfer the respective segment of data to the respective set of pages in the DRAM. Thus, data can be moved segment by segment between the DRAM and the Flash memory.

Disclosed is a system, and a method of using the system, that includes a memory component and a processing device. The processing device provides, to a host system, a failure notification that includes an indication of memory cell(s) of the memory device storing a data that was corrupted during a memory operation. The processing device then receives a replacement data from the host system. The replacement data is provided in response to the host system identifying a range of logical addresses corresponding to the corrupted data, based on geometric parameters of the memory device and the failure notification.

A method for performing access management in a memory device, the associated memory device and the controller thereof, and the associated electronic device are provided. The method may include: receiving a host command and a logical address from a host device; performing at least one checking operation to obtain at least one checking result, for determining whether to load a logical-to-physical (L2P) table from the NV memory to a random access memory (RAM) of the memory device, wherein the L2P table includes address mapping information for accessing the target data, and performing the at least one checking operation to obtain at least one checking result includes checking whether a first L2P-table index pointing toward the L2P table and a second L2P-table index sent from the host device are equivalent to each other; and reading the target data from the NV memory, and sending the target data to the host device.
