Title: Innovations by Krishna Rameshwara Malakapalli
Introduction
Krishna Rameshwara Malakapalli is an accomplished inventor based in Burnsville, MN (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of data storage technology, holding a total of 3 patents. His work focuses on enhancing data integrity and error recovery in mass storage devices.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a "Mass storage error correction and detection system, method and article of manufacture." This innovation increases data integrity on mass-storage devices through a scheme that records a frame-based cyclic redundancy code (CRC) for each sector. A frame-based CRC is generated from the CRCs of the frames that compose a sector of data. In the process of recording data, a CRC is generated from each frame, and a master CRC is created from these frame CRCs. Both the sector and master CRC are recorded on the mass-storage device medium. During data retrieval, the sector composed of frames and a master CRC are read, and a plurality of CRCs are generated from each frame. A second master CRC is then generated from the frame CRCs, and the master CRCs are compared to ensure data integrity.
Another notable patent is related to "Error recovery using alternate headers in a disc drive." This invention provides an apparatus and method for recovering from a header error condition in a disc drive. The disc drive features a rotatable disc with concentric tracks that store data and header fields for logical address information. When the disc drive fails to decode the logical address information from a selected header field, an alternate header error recovery routine is initiated. This routine attempts to decode the logical address information from an alternate header field associated with the selected data block, enhancing the decoding process.
