The digital tachograph is a device that automatically records speed and distance of a vehicle, together with the driver's activity and vehicle status at an accident. It records vehicle speed, break status, acceleration, engine RPM, longitude and latitude of GPS, accumulated distance, and so on. European Commission regulation made digital tachographs mandatory for all trucks from 2005. Republic of Korea made digital tachographs mandatory for all new business vehicles from 2011 and is widening the range of vehicles that must install digital tachographs year by year. This device is used to analyze driver's daily driving information and car accidents. Under a car accident that makes the device reliability unpredictable, it is very important to store driving information with maximum reliability for its original mission. We designed and implemented a practical digital tachograph. This paper presents a storage scheme that consists of a first storage device with small capacity at a high reliability and a second storage device with large capacity at a low cost in order to reliably records data with a hardware at a low cost. The first storage device records data in a SLC NAND flash memory in a log-structured style. We present a reverse partial scan that overcomes the slow scan time of log-structured storages at the boot stage. The scheme reduced the scan time of the first storage device by 1/50. In addition, our design includes a scheme that fast stores data at a moment of accident by 1/20 of data transfer time of a normal method.

In computing systems that require high reliability, the method of predicting the lifetime of a storage device is one of the important factors for system management because it can maximize usability as well as data protection. The life of a solid state drive (SSD) that has recently been used as a storage device in several storage systems is linked to the life of the NAND flash memory that constitutes it. Therefore, in a storage system configured using an SSD, a method of accurately and efficiently predicting the lifespan of a NAND flash memory is required. In this paper, a method for optimizing the lifetime prediction of a flash memory-based storage device using the frequency of NAND flash memory failure is proposed. For this, we design a cost matrix to collect the frequency of defects that occur when processing data in units of Drive Writes Per Day (DWPD). In addition, a method of predicting the remaining cost to the slope where the life-long finish occurs using the Gradient Descent method is proposed. Finally, we proved the excellence of the proposed idea when any defect occurs with simulation.

As digital contents are widely used and require increasingly high quality, the data storage services over Internet also become more and more important. One of popular services, web-hard, provides lots of users with web-based functions for data storage, management and sharing but such storage utilization requires quite high cost compared to using portable storage devices. Moreover, some users may avoid putting their important data into open Internet area. On the other hand, portable storage devices are cheaper but can be used only when they are physically connected to host devices such as PC. Also additional management and security functions should be equipped to support data sharing among users. In this paper, we propose a web-based data storage system combining those advantages of aforementioned two approaches. The proposed system immediately provides web-based services for data management and sharing when a portable device such as SDD is connected to the server.

Searching for portable baggage through the system before boarding an airplane at an airport is important because it prevents many risks. In addition to these dangerous items, personal and confidential information leaks are occurring at airports through data storage devices. In the airport search system, there is a need for a system that searches not only dangerous items but also devices that can leak data. In this paper, we proposed a model that searches for a data storage device by improving the existing model. A comparative evaluation was conducted using existing algorithms. As a result, it was confirmed that the performance of the proposed model is 74 in the training data and 46.73 in the test data, which is superior to the existing model.

As the number of large size multimedia files increases and the importance of individual's digital data grows, storage devices have been advanced to store more data into smaller spaces. In such circumstances, a physical damage in a storage device can destroy large amount of important data. Therefore, it is needed to verify the robustness of various physical faults in storage device before certain systems are used. We developed SOAR(Storage Reliability Analyzer), Storage Reliability Analyzer, to detect physical faults in diverse kinds of HDD hardware components and to recover the systems from those faults. This is a useful tool to verify robustness and reliability of a disk. SOAR uses three unique methods of creating physical damages on a disk and two unique techniques to apply the same feature on file systems. In this paper, we have performed comprehensive tests to verify the robustness and reliability of storage device with SOAR, and from the verification result we could confirm SOAR is a very efficient tool.

Recently the electrostatic 2-axis MEMS stages have been fabricated for the purpose of an application to PSD (Probe-based Storage Device). However, all of the components(platform, comb electrodes, springs, anchors, etc.) in those stages are placed in-plane so that they have low areal efficienceis, which is undesirable as data storage devices. In this paper, we present a novel structure of an electrostatic 2-axis MEMS stage that is characterized by having large area platform. for obtaining large area efficiency, the actuator part consisting of mainly comb electrodes and springs is placed right below the platform. The structure and operational principle of the MEMS stage are described, followed by a design procedure, structural and modal analyses using FEM(Finite Element Method). The areal efficiency of the MEMS stage was designed to be about 25%, which is very large compared with the conventional ones having a few percentage.

DRM is the ability to brand digital contents with features that ensure copy Protection and affect the way in which digital contents are played back. DRM is a technology that enables the secure distribution, promotion and sale of digital contents on the Internet. The DRM Client System that operates on the untrusted user environments has to meet the requirements of the contents owner, including copyright and contents protection. After the DRM Client System is installed on the untrusted user environments, it verifies and plays digital contents. With these procedures it cuties out user authentication, contents decryption, and license management. During these procedures, the sensitive data, including authentication information, decryption data and license data, must be secured against any illegal access from users. The goal of this thesis is to introduce the implementation of Secure Storage Device which can protect user's authentication key, cryptographic key, and license data in safe where the DRM Client System is running.

Data transfer between host system and storage device is based on the data unit called sector, which can be varied depending on computer systems. If NAND flash memory is used as a storage device, the variant sector size can affect storage system performance since its operation is much related to sector size and page size. In this paper, we propose an efficient FTL mapping management scheme to support multiple sector size within one NAND flash memory based storage device, and analyze the performance effect and management overhead. According to the proposed scheme, the management overhead of proposed FTL management is lower than conventional scheme when various sector sizes are configured in computer systems, while performance is less degraded in comparison with single sector size support system.

The Blu-ray Disc Recordable-Triple Layer (BD-R TL) media is considered as one of strong candidates for archival application among optical media formats, due to its large capacity. However, the long-term stability and degradation aspect have not been fully understood yet for BD-R TL media. Thus, the BD-R TL media were recorded at full tracks and analyzed by the random-symbol error rate (R-SER) measurement at different recording layers and recording positions after the accelerated aging test to understand its long-term stability. Finally, the general degradation aspect of BD-R TL media was discussed to improve the long-term stability.
