20110107011 | DATA DEFRAGMENTATION OF SOLID-STATE MEMORY - A method and apparatus for improving the performance of a computer system having a solid-state (flash) memory device as the main system memory. After weeks or months of frequent use, solid-state memories can become badly fragmented, and although every memory cell has basically the same access time to retrieve or to write data from or into that cell, vendors have found that self-defragging utilities within the memory device often improves overall performance. Yet if such defragging utilities are automatically run when other applications are running simultaneously, the drain on system performance can be very detrimental. To avoid the occurrence of unwanted self-defragging of these solid-state memory devices, we inhibit under some circumstances such functionality until it is deemed safe to do so. | 05-05-2011 |

20130016948 | METHODS OF PREPARING STRENGTH MEMBER PULLING MEMBERS IN FIBER OPTIC CABLE FURCATIONS AND RELATED COMPONENTS, ASSEMBLIES, AND FIBER OPTIC CABLESAANM Smith; Matthew WadeAACI ConoverAAST NCAACO USAAGP Smith; Matthew Wade Conover NC USAANM Yates; Wesley AllanAACI LenoirAAST NCAACO USAAGP Yates; Wesley Allan Lenoir NC US - Methods of preparing strength member pulling members in fiber optic cable furcations and related components, assemblies, and fiber optic cables are disclosed. To allow fiber optic cables to be pulled without damaging optical fiber(s) disposed therein, a strength member pulling loop is formed from a strength member disposed inside the fiber optic cable. A pulling cord can be disposed in the strength member pulling loop to pull the fiber optic cable. The pulling load applied to the pulling cord is translated to the strength member pulling loop, which is translated to the strength member disposed inside the fiber optic cable. In this manner, when the fiber optic cable is pulled, the pulling load is translated to the strength member disposed inside the fiber optic cable to prevent or avoid damaging the optical fiber(s) disposed inside the fiber optic cable. | 01-17-2013 |
20130016951 | FIBER OPTIC CABLE MOUNTING ADAPTERS, AND RELATED FIBER OPTIC CABLE ASSEMBLIES AND METHODSAANM Hernandez Quintana; Jose ManuelAACI ReynosaAACO MXAAGP Hernandez Quintana; Jose Manuel Reynosa MXAANM Yates; Wesley AllanAACI LenoirAAST NCAACO USAAGP Yates; Wesley Allan Lenoir NC US - Fiber optic cable mounting adapters and related fiber optic cable assemblies and methods for attaching an external mounting device to the fiber optic cable are disclosed. The fiber optic mounting adapters can be configured to be secured to a portion of a fiber optic cable. The fiber optic mounting adapters can also be configured to be secured to external mounting devices compatible to be secured to fiber optic equipment, to secure the fiber optic mounting adapter, and in turn the fiber optic cable, to the fiber optic equipment. Securing a portion of a fiber optic cable can reduce or prevent bending strain from being propagated along the fiber optic cable. Undesired bending strain of a fiber optic cable can cause undesired optical attenuation. Bending strain can also risk damaging optical fibers, such as furcated legs, exposed from the end portion of the fiber optic cable. | 01-17-2013 |
