As a data analysis tool which is becoming popular in the Big Data era, R is rapidly expanding its user range by providing powerful statistical analysis and data visualization functions. Major advantage of R is its functional scalability based on open source, but its scale scalability is limited, resulting in performance degrades in large data processing. RHadoop, one of the extension packages to complement it, can improve data analysis performance as it supports Hadoop platform-based distributed processing of programs written in R. In this paper, we evaluate the validity of RHadoop by evaluating the performance improvement of RHadoop in real medical big data analysis. Performance evaluation of the analysis of the medical history information, which is provided by National Health Insurance Service, using R and RHadoop shows that RHadoop cluster composed of 8 data nodes can improve performance up to 8 times compared with R.

NAND flash based storage devices adopts multi-channel and multi-way architecture to improve performance using parallel operation of multiple NAND devices. However, multiple NAND devices consume higher current and peak power overlap problem influences on the system stability and data reliability. In this paper, current waveform is measured for erase, program and read operations, peak current and model is defined by profiling method, and estimated probability of peak current overlap among NAND devices. Also, system level TLM simulator is developed to analyze peak overlap phenomenon depending on various simulation scenario. In order to remove peak overlapping, token-ring based simple power management method is applied in the simulation experiments. The optimal peak overlap ratio is proposed to minimize performance degradation based on relationship between peak current overlapping and system performance.
