Abstract: A method, circuit, and system for managing wear levelling in non-volatile memory. First, an original physical block address (PBA) for a logical block address (LBA) of a write operation may be received. The original PBA is one of a set of PBAs for data blocks of a non-volatile memory array. Each of these PBAs may be uniquely mapped to a particular LBA using a multistage interconnection network (MIN). A swap PBA may next be determined for the LBA. The swap PBA may be selected from the set of PBAs uniquely mapped using the MIN. Then, the MIN may be configured to map the LBA to the swap PBA. Finally, data of a first data block stored at the original PBA may be swapped with data of a second data block stored at the swap PBA.

Abstract: A method including receiving an electronic record including a scan of a physical document. A coordinate system, unique to the electronic record, is established for the scan. A first boundary, defined according to the coordinate system, is generated automatically around a first set of recognized characters in the scan.

The first set of recognized characters are physically separated in the scan by at least a predetermined distance with respect to the coordinate system. A comparison value is generated automatically by comparing a first location of the first boundary to a second location of the second boundary, relative to the coordinate system. The first set of recognized characters is associated, in storage, with the second set of recognized characters, responsive to the comparison value satisfying a rule.

Abstract: Storage devices include a memory array which stores host data received from a host computing device. During normal operations, the storage device may encounter a fatal error which can halt functionality. To restore functionality without system disconnection or third-party interventions, the storage device can store recovery data within a host memory buffer prior to encountering a fatal error. The recovery data can be replay protected memory data and/or firmware recovery data that can be written to the host memory buffer upon power on or during a firmware update. When a fatal error occurs, the recovery data can be accessed to try and rebuild file and mapping systems to restore full operation of the storage device. When full operational restoration is not possible, host data can at least be copied from the storage device prior to utilizing firmware recovery data to restore the storage device to an erased but functional state.
