A hybrid solid-state disk (SSD) has multi-level-cell (MLC) or single-level-cell (SLC) flash memory, or both. SLC flash may be emulated by MLC that uses fewer cell states. A NVM controller converts logical block addresses (LBA) to physical block addresses (PBA). Most data is block-mapped and stored in MLC flash, but some critical or high-frequency data is page-mapped to reduce block-relocation copying. A hybrid mapping table has a first-level and a second level. Only the first level is used for block-mapped data, but both levels are used for page-mapped data. The first level contains a block-page bit that indicates if the data is block-mapped or page-mapped. A PBA field in the first-level table maps block-mapped data, while a virtual field points to the second-level table where the PBA and page number is stored for page-mapped data. Page-mapped data is identified by a frequency counter or sector count. SRAM space is reduced.

The control system stores the state of the liquid crystal cell, the regression formula, and reads the temperature of the liquid crystal cell to compute end assert the temperature compensated voltage drive.

Memory cells are programmed and read, at least M=3 data bits per cell, according to a valid nonserial physical bit ordering with reference to a logical bit ordering. The logical bit ordering is chosen to give a more even distribution of error probabilities of the bits, relative to the probability distributions of the data error and the cell state transition error, than would be provided by the physical bit ordering alone. Preferably, both bit orderings have 2M−1 transitions. Preferably, the logical bit ordering is evenly distributed. The translation between the bit orderings is done by software or hardware.

A framework for the cell reselection and associated measurement behavior is proposed based on a state in which a UE is camped on the cell. If the UE is ‘camped in any cell state’, inter-frequency and / or inter-RAT measurements are prioritized over intra-frequency measurements. The proposed scheme helps the UE to find a suitable cell while in the camped on any cell state. If the UE subscribes to specific frequencies, separate measurement rules are implemented to aid the UE to find and camp on the preferred frequencies. The proposed scheme also considers access related information in addition to radio quality to help the UE in making cell selections thereby mitigating the UE from camping on restricted cells. Such aspects minimize situations wherein users are limited due to the service provided by an operator.

The present invention relates to an implementation of a method for cell equalization. The present invention uses other information such as the individual cell state-of-charge (SOC) estimates, and individual capacities and / or cell Coulombic efficiencies, possibly available from a dual extended Kalman filter. The present invention defines or refers to an operational SOC range between a minimum and a maximum. The minimum and maximum could be constants or could be dynamic based on functions of other variables. SOC can be measured relative to maximum charge or relative to maximum discharge for each cell. When the SOC is not consistent across the cells, a prioritizing scheme is used to determine which cells require equalization.

A memory array can be optimized for SPICE simulation by modeling the memory array as a collection of boundary elements that track the cell states of memory cells connected to a particular array terminal. By maintaining a cell state distribution for each boundary element, the simulation behavior at the array terminal associated with that boundary element can be accurately determined by modeling each unique cell state, multiplying the results by the corresponding quantities from the cell state distribution, and then adding the results to obtain final values for the array terminal. This allows accurate simulation results to be achieved without needing to simulate each cell independently. Furthermore, by removing any references to unoccupied cell states (e.g., by removing such states from the cell state distribution and / or eliminating model equations for such states), the memory and cpu usage requirements during the simulation can be minimized.

Systems and methods are presented for cell simulation and cell state prediction. For example, a cellular biochemical network intrinsic to a phenotype of a cell can be simulated by specifying its components and their interrelationships. The various interrelationships can be represented with one or more mathematical equations which can be solved to simulate a first state of the cell.
