Abstract: Aspects of a storage device are provided that handle host commands associated with active and inactive zones using a hybrid L2P mapping system. The storage device includes a NVM, a controller, a first volatile memory and a second volatile memory. The controller allocates, as a superblock, one or more physical blocks respectively in one or more memory dies of the NVM, receives write commands including logical addresses associated with active zones, and stores in an L2P mapping table L2P address mappings of these logical addresses to physical addresses associated with either volatile memory or the superblock. The controller refrains from storing L2P address mappings for inactive zones, instead storing in a superblock mapping table a mapping of superblocks to inactive zones in response to respective zone finish commands. As a result, L2P mapping table sizes are reduced, zone read, reset, and TTR performance are increased, and reduced WAF is achieved.

A response persona may be used to generate responses to the user's utterances such that the generated responses match a tone appropriate to the task. A response persona may be used to generate templates to solicit additional information and/or generate responses appropriate to the task.

Abstract: Systems described herein may use transformer-based machine classifiers to perform a variety of natural language understanding tasks including, but not limited to sentence classification, named entity recognition, sentence similarity, and question answering. The exceptional performance of transformer-based language models is due to their ability to capture long-term temporal dependencies in input sequences. Machine classifiers may be trained using training data sets for multiple tasks, such as but not limited to sentence classification tasks and sequence labeling tasks. Loss masking may be employed in the machine classifier to jointly train the machine classifier on multiple tasks simultaneously. The user of transformer encoders in the machine classifiers, which treat each output sequence independently of other output sequences, in accordance with aspects of the invention do not require joint labeling to model tasks.

Abstract: Roughly described, a database accelerator is installed in a network having client systems which makes database queries to a particular IP address and port, and database servers which accept queries received at an IP address and port. The accelerator includes a cache, and is arranged to receive, through a network port, a database query made by a client system and directed to the particular IP address and port, return response data from the cache if available there, and if not, then forward the query through a network port to the database servers. Upon receipt of response data from the servers, the accelerator can retain it in its cache in addition to forwarding it back to the client. By installing the accelerator transparently in the network, no changes are required to either the client or server software in order to add query caching functionality to an existing client/server database arrangement.
