Abstract

A read value that is read from a multi-level storage device is received, as are a set of bins having bin ranges. A set of amounts corresponding to the set of bins is received where each amount in the set indicates an amount of read values which fall into the corresponding bin. One or more of the bin ranges is adjusted, including by: in the event there is a first bin range that is less than the received read value, increasing at least the first bin range and in the event there is a second bin range that is greater than the received read value, decreasing at least the second bin range.
