  • Patent number: 11928336
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a storage system are disclosed. The storage system includes a first storage device and a second storage device different from the first storage device. A first storage operation is received for a first portion of a file, and a data structure associated with the file is identified. Based on the data structure, the first storage device is identified for the first portion of the file. The first storage operation is transmitted to the first storage device. In response to the first storage operation, the first storage device updates or accesses the first portion of the file.

  • Patent number: 11928111
    Abstract: A method for controlling an electronic apparatus includes: translating a first query text of a first language to acquire a second query text of a second language; transmitting the second query text to an external device; acquiring, from the external device, a first response text of the second language in response to the second query text; acquiring a second response text acquired by translating the first response text into the first language, and identifying whether the second response text semantically matches to the first query text by inputting the second response text and the first query text into a first neural network model configured to identify whether a query and a response semantically match; and acquiring a third query text of the second language by retranslating the first query text based on a result of identifying that the first query text and the second response text do not semantically match.

  • Patent number: 11928192
    Abstract: A host device, a storage device, and a method employ a vendor unique command (VUC) authentication system. The storage device includes a memory and a memory controller which includes a VUC authentication module and controls the memory. The VUC authentication module transmits first memory information about the memory to the host device, receives from the host device a one-time password generated by the first memory information, verifies the one-time password, and receives a vendor unique command from the host device when the one-time password is correct.
