According to one embodiment, for first data, which is read from a nonvolatile memory, for which a first data translation is performed, a second data translation that is a reverse translation of the first data translation is performed. Next, for the first data for which the second data translation is performed, the first data translation is performed. In addition, the read first data is compared with the first data for which the first data translation is performed, and check information is generated based on a result of the comparison.

Memory controller and memory system

According to one embodiment, a control unit determines a first physical sector in which first data is to be written among a plurality of physical sectors based on first information that is based on a result of the first data translation and the device characteristics of the plurality of physical sectors. A write unit writes data for which a first data translation is performed into the first physical sector of a nonvolatile memory.

Memory controller

According to an embodiment, a storage control device includes a controller, a compression condition determiner, a compressor, and an error correction encoder. The controller receives a write request for a data item and determines whether or not the wear degree of a target region in a storage device to which the data item is to be written is less than a threshold value. The compression condition determiner determines, based on the wear degree, an optimal compression condition out of compression conditions that include lossy compression. The compressor generates, based on the compression condition, compressed data. The error correction encoder subjects the data item to error correction and generates encoded data.

Storage control device, storage system, and storage control method

A data compressing device according to an embodiment includes a data cutting unit configured to divide continuously inputted data into W-bit data blocks and to output the data blocks in segments such that each of the segments is composed of N data blocks, and a compression-method determining unit configured to select, as a compression portion for each of the segments, a run length system, a flag system, or no compression, according to a ratio of data blocks of specific data in any of the segments. The data compressing device further includes an RL compression unit configured to execute, on any of the segments, a run length system of storing a consecutive amount of the specific data into compressed data, and a flag compression unit configured to execute, on any of the segments, a flag system of storing positional information of the specific data into compressed data.

Data compressing device, data decompressing device, and data compressing/decompressing apparatus

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor apparatus includes a block and a controller. The block includes a logic circuit and a routing module. The routing module includes a plurality of first wiring lines, a plurality of second wiring lines, switches, and a wiring line switching circuit. The switches are arranged to perform connection and disconnection between the first wiring lines and the second wiring lines. The wiring line switching circuit is arranged to switch a wiring line for transmitting the signal, among the first wiring lines and the second wiring lines. The controller is arranged to control driving of the switches and the wiring line switching circuit.

Semiconductor apparatus, routing module, and control method of semiconductor apparatus

In the present invention, a service network includes, when user terminals are divided by area, subscriber accommodation nodes that accommodate the user terminals present in the respective areas and relay nodes that perform relay of information among the subscriber accommodation nodes. The congestion control system further includes an edge router that routes a processing request for a communication service received from each of the user terminals to each of the subscriber accommodation nodes on the service network side as a control message and a congestion control server that controls congestion states of the subscriber accommodation nodes and the relay nodes. The subscriber accommodation node detects, when congestion occurs or it is likely that congestion occurs in the subscriber accommodation node because of a large number of control messages from the edge router, the occurrence of the congestion or the likelihood of occurrence of congestion and notifies the congestion control server to that effect. The congestion control server transmits a congestion control message for regulation to the edge router that routes the control message to the subscriber accommodation node, in which the congestion or the likelihood of occurrence of congestion has occurred, to thereby regulate an operation for routing the control message to the subscriber accommodation node, in which the congestion or the likelihood of occurrence of congestion has occurred, from the edge router.
