| 20080215905 | Interface Device, Circuit Module, Circuit System, Device for Data Communications and Method for Calculating a Circuit Module - An interface device allows data communication between a controller and a plurality of circuit units. The interface device has a first interface for a connection to the controller, a second interface for a connection to a second circuit unit, and a third interface for a connection to a second circuit unit. An interface calibrating unit is coupled to the second and third interfaces and a non-volatile calibrating parameter memory is arranged in the interface calibrating unit or coupled to the calibrating unit. The memory is adapted to store calibrating parameters for the second and third interfaces. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20100044877 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE HAVING A CHIP STACK - An electronic device provides a stack of semiconductor chips. A redistribution layer of a first semiconductor chip is arranged at the bottom of the stack. The redistribution layer of the first semiconductor chip comprises external pads. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20100074038 | Memory Dies for Flexible Use and Method for Configuring Memory Dies - A memory die, including a memory array, a memory array data terminal and a data bus that includes a first sub bus and a second sub bus is disclosed. A first bi-directional buffer arranged between the memory array data terminal and the first sub bus and a second bi-directional buffer arranged between the memory array data terminal and the second sub bus is also disclosed. The first and second bi-directional buffers are adapted to couple the first sub bus or the second sub bus to the memory array data terminal at a time. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20110075496 | Memory Controller Comprising Adjustable Transmitter Impedance - Memory controllers, memory devices and methods are provided in which test data is transmitted and signal parameters are varied. The transmitted test data is read, and based on a comparison between transmitted test data and read test data a transmitter impedance is adjusted. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20100088271 | HSM TWO-WAY ORPHAN RECONCILIATION FOR EXTREMELY LARGE FILE SYSTEMS - One aspect of the present invention provides an operation for recovering lost space and maintaining data consistency in a storage environment by providing a two-way orphan reconciliation method for extremely large file systems, such as a Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) system which manages billions of files. This highly scalable and parallelizable orphan identification process may be used in a HSM controlled environment to enable the execution of a two-way file orphan check. In one embodiment, this orphan check identifies file system client orphans and server object orphans in a single pass by comparing a queue containing a list of migrated files on a storage repository server with a queue containing a list of stub files on a file system. If the queue elements do not match, a file system orphan or server object orphan can appropriately be identified. | 04-08-2010 |
| 20100088392 | CONTROLLING FILLING LEVELS OF STORAGE POOLS - Method, system, and computer program product embodiments of controlling filling levels of a plurality of storage pools are provided. A plurality of files is selected from each storage pool of the plurality of storage pools. Each file is then copied to a server and a list is updated. The list comprises an entry for each file of the plurality of files. Each entry comprises a status information. The status information indicates that the corresponding file has been copied to the server. Each entry further comprises an identifier indicating the storage pool on which the corresponding file is stored. If it is detected that the filling level of a storage pool reaches a predefined first threshold value, then a first set of files is determined by use of the list. Each file of the first set of files is replaced by a stub file. The status information is updated. | 04-08-2010 |
| 20100191708 | Synchronous Deletion of Managed Files - A method of synchronous deletion of managed files in a file system includes receiving a destroy event for a file to be deleted from the file system, the destroy event being generated upon request to destroy a file or corresponding objects of the files system; processing the received destroy event. Processing the destroy event includes determining if hierarchical storage management of the file system is initiated, and if initiated, continuing processing of the received destroy event; blocking threads indefinitely for an event storm during processing of the received destroy event; determining if the file to be deleted is being premigrated, migrated or is being recalled; aborting migration of the file based on the determination of migration and recall; and deleting the file and server objects corresponding to the file from the file system, where initiation of file deletion and server object deletion are synchronous. | 07-29-2010 |
