Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program product provide a simplified method for unlocking an electronic device that uses soft keys, such as capacitive touch keys, or proximity detection areas and patterns. The keys may be implemented in the form of areas of a sensor, and a processing circuit observes a touch pattern (or proximity pattern, or characteristic pattern such as a capacitance pattern of a user's finger) and compares the same with the registered pattern to determine if there is a likeness. In doing so, the electronic device is operated at a low power state, and in that low power state observes whether a predetermined pattern is observed and when it is, unlocks the electronic device for interaction with a user at a fully operational state. By operating in the low power state while waiting to observe a predetermined pattern before unlocking the user interface, the device does not waste power on false positive detections, and allows for convenient wakeup and accessibility by a user.

Abstract: A storage device, such as a NAND flash device, includes a controller that assigns host read commands to a high priority queue and all other I/O commands including host write commands to a low priority queue. The controller executes any commands in the high priority queue before executing commands in the low priority queue. Block write commands are broken into page write commands that are added to the low priority queue, thereby enabling any host read commands to be interleaved with execution of the page write commands, rather than waiting for completion of a block write command. Coherency between overlapping commands is performed by a host device coupled to the controller such that no checking of coherency is performed by the SSD controller.
