  • REDUCING A SIZE OF A LOGICAL TO PHYSICAL DATA ADDRESS TRANSLATION TABLE
    Publication number: 20170206170
    Abstract: A method may include forming, by a processor, a logical data address container comprising a plurality of logical data addresses. Each logical data address corresponds to a respective physical data address. The method also may include specifying, by the processor, a fully specified physical data address corresponding to a first logical data address of the plurality of logical data addresses. The method further may include specifying, by the processor, partially specified physical data addresses corresponding to the other logical data addresses of the plurality of logical data addresses. The partially specified physical data addresses may include sufficient address information to specify physical data addresses not directly adjacent to the fully specified physical data address. The method also may include storing the fully specified physical data address and the plurality of partially specified physical data addresses in a logical to physical data address translation table.
