Computational storage device intercommunication
By Francis Pelletier | August 1, 2022 at 2:00 pmNGD Systems, Inc., Irvine, CA, has been assigned a patent (11,379,277) developed by Costa, Hermes, Mission Viejo, CA, and Alves, Vladimir, Tustin, CA, for “system and method for computational storage device intercommunication.“
The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A method of facilitating communication to an embedded computer in a computational storage device via a host includes receiving a message for transmission to an embedded process running at the embedded computer, determining that a destination address of the message corresponds to the embedded computer within the computational storage device, in response to the determination, forwarding the message to a host relay process associated with the embedded computer, and encapsulating the message to generate a proprietary command for transmission to the computational storage device.”
The patent application was filed on November 9, 2020 (17/093,403).
