Abstract: Some data storage devices have a plurality of memory dies that can be read in parallel for certain types of read requests. Read requests pertaining to a garbage collection operation are often generated sequentially and, thus, are not eligible for parallel execution in the memory dies. In an example data storage device presented herein, such read requests are consolidated and sent to the memory for execution in parallel across the memory dies.

Abstract: A computer-implemented real-time payment system for clearing and settlement of transactions is described. The real-time payment system is adapted to implement a method of automated liquidity maintenance. The real-time payment system receives transactions for clearing and settlement from a plurality of participants, each of which has a liquidity position in the real-time payment system. At least some of the participants have a funded liquidity position in a central bank. The real-time payment system determines whether the liquidity position of each of the participants meets predetermined rules. If the liquidity position of any of the participants does not meet a predetermined rule applicable when the determination is made, the system requests an adjustment for that liquidity position so that it complies with that predetermined rule. The real-time payment system also coordinates with the central bank to use one of the funded liquidity positions to support that adjustment to a liquidity position.

Abstract: A data storage system according to certain aspects can share a single snapshot for multiple applications and/or agents. For example, the data storage system can receive snapshot commands from multiple applications and/or agents, and can group them for a single snapshot (e.g., based on time of receipt of the snapshot commands). Data associated with the multiple applications and/or agents may reside on a single LUN or volume. The data storage system can take a single snapshot of the LUN or volume, and generate metadata regarding which portion of the snapshot is related to which application. The single snapshot can be stored in one or more secondary storage devices. The single snapshot may be partitioned into portions relating to different applications and stored separately.

The one or more gaps can be formed on a repetitive spacing to relieve stresses between the ferroelectric layer and the semiconductor wafer. A first dielectric layer is deposited over the ferroelectric layer and the first dielectric layer is planarized to fill in the gaps. A second dielectric layer is formed between the ferroelectric layer and the semiconductor wafer. The second dielectric layer can be formed by annealing the wafer in an oxidizing atmosphere such that an upper portion of the semiconductor substrate forms an oxide layer between the semiconductor substrate and the ferroelectric layer.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed for relocating data in a non-volatile storage system. An integrated memory assembly has a control die and a memory die that contains the memory cells. The control die contains control circuitry that relocates data from one set of physical addresses on the memory die to another set of physical addresses on the memory die. This relocation results in a change of a mapping between logical addresses for the data and the physical addresses for the data. The control circuitry may update an L2P table on the memory die after the relocation to map the logical addresses of the data to the second set of physical addresses. The control die may construct a validity bitmap, which specifies whether data at a physical address is valid or invalid. The foregoing reduces data transfer between the integrated memory assembly and a memory controller, which saves time and power.

Abstract: A vehicle immobilizer system comprised of at least one deployable, remotely actuated lift system. The lift system is transported by a movable frame which can be remotely operated. The movable frame suspends the lift system during transport. However, during the lifting operation, the lift system bears the weight of the vehicle, while the movable frame does not. As a result, the movable frame can be of lightweight construction while the lift system can be robust. The lift system supports a universal docking plate which is designed to contact the suspect vehicle and suspend it without damaging it.

Abstract: Organic sulfur compounds which are generally present in the crude oil undergoes various transformations while processing the crude oil in the secondary processing units such as fluid catalytic cracker, hydrocracker, delayed coker, visbreaker, etc. The sulfur present in the feed which enters into these secondary processing units are distributed into various products coming out of the units. Sulfur compounds which are present in the various product fractions are removed to meet the desired specifications before routing to the final product pool.

Abstract: A non-volatile storage system includes a memory controller connected to an integrated memory assembly. The integrated memory assembly includes a memory die comprising non-volatile memory cells and a control die bonded to the memory die. The memory controller receives commands from a host, performs logical address to physical address translation (“address translation”) operations for the commands, and instructs the integrated memory assembly to perform one or more operations in support of the command. The control die also includes the ability to perform the address translation. When performing a command from the host, the memory controller can choose to perform the necessary address translation or instruct the control die to perform the address translation. When the control die performs the address translation, the resulting physical address is used by the control die to perform one or more operations in support of the command.

Abstract: A method for removing a native oxide film from a semiconductor substrate includes repetitively depositing layers of germanium on the native oxide and heating the substrate causing the layer of germanium to form germanium oxide, desorbing a portion of the native oxide film. The process is repeated until the oxide film is removed. A subsequent layer of strontium titanate can be deposited on the semiconductor substrate, over either residual germanium or a deposited germanium layer. The germanium can be converted to silicon germanium oxide by exposing the strontium titanate to oxygen.

Abstract: The systems and methods herein permit storage systems to correctly perform data recovery, such as direct access recovery, of Network Data Management Protocol (“NDMP”) backup data that was modified prior to being stored in secondary storage media, such as tape.
