Abstract: This disclosure provides techniques hierarchical address virtualization within a memory controller and configurable block device allocation. By performing address translation only at select hierarchical levels, a memory controller can be designed to have predictable I/O latency, with brief or otherwise negligible logical-to-physical address translation time. In one embodiment, address transition may be implemented entirely with logical gates and look-up tables of a memory controller integrated circuit, without requiring processor cycles. The disclosed virtualization scheme also provides for flexibility in customizing the configuration of virtual storage devices, to present nearly any desired configuration to a host or client.

Abstract: A host stores “context” metadata for logical block addresses (LBAs) in a manner tied to physical location. Notwithstanding log-structured or copy on write processes, the host is then provided with immediate context when the host is called upon to assist a memory controller with data identified by physical location, for example, for memory reconfiguration, garbage collection, wear leveling or other processes. The metadata for example can provide the host with insight as to which data may be moved to enhance performance optimization and where that data can be placed. In one embodiment, the host writes back one or more references that span multiple layers of indirection in concert with write of the underlying data; in another embodiment, the context can point to other metadata.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical field of dental medical treatment, and specifically discloses a method for using a CBCT (Cone Beam Computer Tomography) for automatically positioning a tooth, which comprises the following steps: S01, archiving CT data; S02, calculating AI and generating AI results; S03, entering CT reading by a client; S04, downloading and loading the CT data; S05, opening a function of a tooth lens; S06, selecting a corresponding tooth position in a tooth position list; and S07, selecting a 3D tooth rendering mode. The function of the ‘tooth lens’ is added into traditional CT reading, which is suitable for clinical disease diagnoses such as ‘tooth extraction, root canal therapy, tooth repair’ and the like in oral treatment, and doctors can precisely and quickly position the single tooth through selection for the tooth position, which facilitates more comprehensive analysis.

Abstract: This disclosure provides techniques for managing memory which match per-data metrics to those of other data or to memory destination. In one embodiment, wear data is tracked for at least one tier of nonvolatile memory (e.g., flash memory) and a measure of data persistence (e.g., age, write frequency, etc.) is generated or tracked for each data item. Memory wear management based on these individually-generated or tracked metrics is enhanced by storing or migrating data in a manner where persistent data is stored in relatively worn memory locations (e.g., relatively more-worn flash memory) while temporary data is stored in memory that is less worn or is less susceptible to wear. Other data placement or migration techniques are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of controlling an electric aircraft that has a plurality of actuators that includes a plurality of electric propulsion units includes: receiving force and moment commands for the electric aircraft; determining control commands for the plurality of actuators based on the desired force and moment commands by solving an optimization problem that comprises a noise minimization term for minimizing noise generated by the electric propulsion units; and controlling the plurality of actuators according to the determined control commands to meet the force and moment commands for the electric aircraft.

Abstract: A kitchen pullout for storage of knives, miscellaneous utensils and appliances is provided. A reversable base frame and an adjustable top rail is provided to secure the pullout in the cabinet carcass in an extremely stable configuration. The reversable base frame is concealed in the pullout in both a stowed and a deployed position. The bottom slide assembly installable from either the inside or the outside of the cabinet carcass.
