| Zusammenfassung: | Recovery is expedited for crashes involving flash memory. Rather than requiring an entire flash memory to be read to reconstruct lost information, only a subset of the memory need be read thereby reducing system down time, among other things. In particular, state information such as a logical to physical mapping is captured via a checkpoint operation periodically. Moreover, a deterministic usage pattern is employed to facilitate recovery of actions performed after a checkpoint. |
