Patent number: 11775366Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a data storage device that includes a refresh monitor based on a learning based feedback control. The refresh monitor is used to control refresh operations to account for effects of writes to media, e.g., adjacent track interference (ATI). Read operations are analyzed to derive damage information usable to update one or more probability distributions, upon which the learning is updated or reinforced and carried forward. In one embodiments, the data storage device includes control circuitry configured to maintain a refresh monitor based on a learning system, analyze a read operation with the refresh monitor; adjust the refresh monitor by updating the one or more probability distributions based on the analyzed read operation; and execute a refresh operation to refresh data based on the adjusted refresh monitor.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Zarko Popov, Bernd Lamberts, Hitoshi Yoshida, Mao Nishiyama, Victor Ramirez

Patent number: 8245133Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for automatically producing documents that incorporate one or more data elements. A guided/structured software environment is provided that assists users in creating manuals by defining the appropriate content for each manual section, content rules and relationships, and tasks to be performed for each type of manual entry. Manual content is stored as structured data elements, rather than pages of sentences, to more efficiently generate, revise, and store the content of a manual. A storage database is provided for retrieving and storing predefined templates, documents and individual data elements to produce a final manual. Manuals are created by combining various data elements. An instant preview interface permits a user to quickly view what revisions will look like in a final document prior to actually publishing the manual. A published manual is compiled by assembling the stored data elements and into a document.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2010Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: Prototype Industries, Inc.Inventors: Irene Grigoriadis, Victor A.
