Inspur Electronic Information Industry Assigned Two Patents

Data caching
Inspur Electronic Information Industry Co., Ltd., Jinan, China, has been assigned a patent (11803475) developed by Liu, Haiwei, Dong, Gang, Yang, Hongbin, Zhao, Yaqian, Li, Rengang, and Shi, Hongzhi, Shandong, China, for “method and apparatus for data caching.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “The present invention provides a method and apparatus for data caching. The method comprises: output matrixes are acquired one by one, a plurality of acquired output matrixes are written alternately into two queue sets of a first cache unit according to a sequence in which the output matrixes are acquired, and the output matrixes stored line by line in a first cache unit are written into a second cache unit one by one, according to the sequence in which the output matrixes are written into the second cache unit, valid data of each output matrix of the second cache unit is determined one by one according to preset parameters, and the valid data of each output matrix is written into a third cache unit, and the valid data of the output matrixes stored in the third cache unit are configured to be sequentially written into a memory according to a sequence in which the valid data are written into the third cache unit. In the present solution, the output matrixes are cached by using cache units with the writing speed matching with the computing speed of a processor, and the output matrixes are completely written into a memory one by one according to a sequence of generation time. Therefore, the present invention may solve the problem that the computing speed of the processor does not match with the writing speed of the memory.”

The patent application was filed on 2019-11-28 (17/640276).

NVM scheduling method, system and device, and readable storage medium
Inspur Electronic Information Industry Co., Ltd., Jinan, China, has been assigned a patent (11789615) developed by Feng, Zhen, Zhang, Dong, and Yan, Bingheng, Shandong, Chinaa, for “nonvolatile memory scheduling method, system and device, and readable storage medium.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A nonvolatile memory scheduling method, system and device, and a computer-readable storage medium. The method includes: obtaining a utilization rate of a current memory space (S101), when the utilization rate is less than a first threshold, determining a first space to be converted of the memory space, converting the first space into a high-speed storage space, and storing data in a conventional storage device into the high-speed storage space (S102), and when the utilization rate is greater than a second threshold, determining a second space to be converted of the high-speed storage space, storing data stored in the second space into the conventional storage device, and converting the second space into the memory space (S103).”

The patent application was filed on 2021-02-19 (17/924868).
