Abstract: System, method, and program to determine whether to interrupt a process, e.g., a write function, to carry out another process, e.g., a high priority read function, in a device that uses memory devices, e.g., eMMC devices, that use a single channel to carry out two different processes, e.g., write and read processes.

Abstract: A system and method for reducing in boot time in an electronic device. In one embodiment, a command to power off the electronic device is received. An amount of information stored in at least one of the plurality of memory banks of RAM containing data is calculated. A determination is made as to whether the RAM has sufficient storage space to store compacted data and also form a RAM disk in a portion of the RAM, wherein the step of determining is based at least in part on the amount of information calculated. A RAM disk is initiated in an available memory bank of RAM. The RAM is compacted and a hibernate command is executed wherein the RAM disk is a target for storing the compacted RAM. Power is maintained to memory banks that form the RAM disk and the processor of the portable communication device is set to a power collapse mode.

Abstract: Lifespan of embedded flash memory in an electronic device may be extended and efficient use of the MLC capabilities of the memory may be made by implementing an enhanced partition that stores content that is dynamically adjusted according to the memory usage of the device. The enhanced partition may be used to store data that has a relatively high frequency of updating as measured, for example, by write operations to corresponding memory addresses. In one embodiment, the size of the enhanced partition also may be adjusted in accordance with memory usage, such as basing the size of the enhanced partition on the frequently updated addresses.
