Data scrubbing is an error correction technique which uses a background task that periodically inspects memory for errors, and then corrects the error using a copy of the data. It reduces the likelihood that single correctable errors will accumulate; thus, reducing the risk of uncorrectable errors.

Famous quotes containing the words data and/or scrubbing:
“Mental health data from the 1950’s on middle-aged women showed them to be a particularly distressed group, vulnerable to depression and feelings of uselessness. This isn’t surprising. If society tells you that your main role is to be attractive to men and you are getting crow’s feet, and to be a mother to children and yours are leaving home, no wonder you are distressed.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
“For my people lending their strength to the years: to the gone
years and the now years and the maybe years, washing ironing cooking scrubbing sewing mending hoeing plowing digging planting pruning patching dragging along never gaining never reaping never knowing and never understanding;”
—Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)
