Abstract: In a method of throttling temperature of a nonvolatile memory device including a memory cell array, a current temperature of the nonvolatile memory device may be detected periodically. The current temperature may be compared with a reference temperature. Whether an external input/output command, which is provided by a memory controller, exists may be determined when the current temperature is lower than the reference temperature. An input/output operation, which corresponds to the external input/output command, may be performed on the memory cell array when the external input/output command exists. A desired and/or alternatively predetermined internal input/output operation may be performed on the memory cell array regardless of a command from the memory controller when the external input/output command does not exist.

Abstract: A method of operating a data processing system includes transmitting process information indicating that a first process is classified as a critical process or a non-critical process to a kernel area, wherein the process information is generated in an application area, and the application area and the kernel area define a host. When the first process is classified as a critical process based on the process information, a first fastpath write signal is provided, using the kernel area, to a memory system to perform a fastpath write operation of first data for performing the first process. When the first process is classified as a non-critical process, a first slowpath write signal is provided to the memory system to perform a slowpath write operation of the first data. The fastpath write operation has a higher write speed than the slowpath write operation.
