  • Publication number: 20180024768
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to partitioning memory modules into volatile and non-volatile portions. For example, a system includes a memory controller to partition a memory module into a non-volatile portion and a volatile portion and to identify persistent data to be backed up during a power loss condition. The memory controller is further to transfer the persistent data from the volatile portion of the memory module to the non-volatile portion of the memory module, in response to the power loss condition.

  • Patent number: 9864102
    Abstract: Acrylate-acrylamide copolymers are disclosed. They are rigid and glassy in dry state at room temperature (from about 23° C. to about 28° C.), but are soft and very deformable and have a high refractive index, a high glistening resistance and a low aging-related surface light scattering in fully hydrated state. They are particularly suitable for making wet-packed intraocular lenses (IOLs) which can be delivered through sub 2.0 mm incisions.

  • Publication number: 20170249248
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to data backup. For example, a data backup can include tracking a location of a data block on a first node and initiating a transfer, utilizing a backup power supply, of the data block to a non-volatile memory location on a second node in response to an interruption of a primary power supply. In addition, the data block can be restored to the tracked location of the first node responsive to a restoration of the primary power supply.

  • Patent number: 9727462
    Abstract: During runtime of a system, a memory controller is caused to relinquish control of a memory module that includes a volatile memory and a non-volatile memory. After the triggering, an indication is activated to the memory module, the indication causing a backup operation in the memory module, the backup operation being controlled by an internal controller in the memory module, and the backup operation involving a transfer of data from the volatile memory to the non-volatile memory in the memory module.

  • Patent number: 9672150
    Abstract: To migrate data from a first storage system to a second storage system, the second storage system detects a migration of a persistent storage media from the first storage system to the second storage system. In response to detecting the migration of the persistent storage media, write information from a write cache in the first storage system is copied to a write cache in the second storage system, where the write caches in the first and second storage systems were not maintained synchronously before the write information from the write cache in the first storage system is copied to the write cache in the second storage system.

  • Publication number: 20150113245
    Abstract: An example processor includes a plurality of processor core components, a memory interface component, and an address translation gasket. Each processor core component is assigned to one of a plurality of system images, and the plurality of system images share a common memory component by at least utilizing the address translation gasket to maintain separation between memory regions assigned to each of the plurality of system images. The memory interface component is shared by the plurality of independent system images. The address translation gasket is configured to intercept transactions bound for the memory interface component comprising a system image identifier and a target address, generate a translation address based at least in part on the system identifier and the target address, and send the translation address to the memory interface component.
