Abstract
A non-volatile memory receives a request from a controller to read data stored in the memory. Moving read references are adjusted as a function of the temperature of the memory at which the data was written and the temperature of the memory at which the data is to be read. Moving read references may also be adjusted as a function of the retention time of the data to be read and the word line type of the storage elements in which the data is stored.
