Study on the NAND Flash Memory-Based Failure Recovery Improvement Using T*-Tree

The efficient recovery of deleted data from NAND flash memory

μ-Tree : An Ordered Index Structure for NAND Flash Memory∗

As NAND flash memory becomes increasingly popular as data storage for embedded systems, many file systems and database management systems are being built on it. They require an efficient index structure to locate a particular item quickly from a huge amount of directory entries or database records. This paper proposes μ-Tree, a new ordered index structure tailored to the characteristics of NAND...

The bleak future of NAND flash memory

In recent years, flash-based SSDs have grown enormously both in capacity and popularity. In highperformance enterprise storage applications, accelerating adoption of SSDs is predicated on the ability of manufacturers to deliver performance that far exceeds disks while closing the gap in cost per gigabyte. However, while flash density continues to improve, other metrics such as a reliability, en...

Polar-Coded Forward Error Correction for MLC NAND Flash Memory Polar FEC for NAND Flash Memory

With the ever-growing storage density, high-speed, and low-cost data access, flash memory has inevitably become popular. Multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash memory, which can well balance the data density and memory stability, has occupied the largest market share of flash memory. With the aggressive memory scaling, however, the reliability decays sharply owing to multiple interferences. Therefor...

Fast Mounting and Recovery for NAND Flash Memory Based Embedded Systems

Even though its advantages such as non-volatility, fast write access time and solid-state shock resistance, NAND flash memory suffers from out-place-update, limited erase cycles, and page-based I/O operations. How to provide fast mounting and consistency of file system and data for flash memory file systems has become important research topics in recent years. In this paper, we design and propo...
