  • Patent number: 10223005
    Abstract: Techniques are described for a memory device. In various embodiments, a scheduler/controller is configured to manage data as it read to or written from a memory. A memory is partitioned into a group of sub-blocks, a parity block is associated with the sub-blocks, and the sub-blocks are accessed to read data as needed. A pending write buffer is added to a group of memory sub-blocks. Such a buffer may be sized to be equal to the group of memory sub-blocks. The pending write buffer handles collisions for write accesses to the same block.

  • Publication number: 20190037585
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an information processing method and apparatus. A terminal device encodes uplink control information (UCI) to obtain coded bits of the UCI, and encodes data to obtain coded bits of the data. The terminal device multiplexes the coded bits of the UCI and the coded bits of the data to obtain a multiplexed bit sequence. The terminal device then transmits the multiplexed bit sequence to a network device via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). A length of a transmission time interval of the UCI is less than or equal to 0.5 millisecond. In this way, data transmission latency can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 10148586
    Abstract: A work conserving scheduler can be implemented based on a ranking system to provide the scalability of time stamps while avoiding the fast search associated with a traditional time stamp implementation. Each queue can be assigned a time stamp that is initially set to zero. The time stamp for a queue can be incremented each time a data packet from the queue is processed. To provide varying weights to the different queues, the time stamp for the queues can be incremented at varying rates. The data packets can be processed from the queues based on the tier rank order of the queues as determined from the time stamp associated with each queue. To increase the speed at which the ranking is determined, the ranking can be calculate from a subset of the bits defining the time stamp rather than the entire bit set.
