The control circuit changes the learning threshold in accordance with frequency of the firing signal from a target neuron circuit. The learning threshold is used for changing the synaptic weight stored in one or more synaptic circuits each outputting the output signal to the target neuron.

Abstract

Systems and methods for scheduling the execution of disk access commands in a split-actuator hard disk drive are provided. In some embodiments, while a first actuator of the split actuator is in the process of performing a first disk access command (a victim operation), a second disk access command (an aggressor operation) is selected for and executed by a second actuator of the split actuator. The aggressor operation is selected from a queue of disk access commands for the second actuator, and is selected based on being the disk access command in the queue that can be initiated sooner than any other disk access command in the queue without disturbing the victim operation.
