Main Memory storage system can increase the performance of the system by assigning enough slack time to real-time transactions. Due to its high response time of main memory devices, main memory resident data management systems have been used for location management of personal mobile clients to cope with urgent location related operations. In this paper we have developed a multi-threaded main memory storage system as a core component of real-time retrieval system to handle a huge amount of readers and writers of main memory resident data. The storage system is implemented as an embedded component which is working with the help of a disk resident database system. It uses multi-threaded executions and utilizes latches for its concurrency control rather than complex locking method. It only saves most recent data on main memory and data synchronization is done only when disk resident database asks for update transactions. The system controls the number of read threads and update threads to guarantee the minimum requirements of real-time retrievals.

Hard disks have been the most prevalent secondary storage devices and these days their usage is becoming more important in mobile computing systems due to I/O intensive applications such as multimedia applications and games. However, significant power consumption in the disk drives still limits battery lifetimes of mobile systems critically. In this paper, we show that using several smaller disks (instead of one large disk) can be an energy-efficient secondary storage solution on typical mobile platforms without a significant performance delay. Also, we propose a novel energy-efficient technique, which clusters related data into groups and migrates the correlated groups to the same disk. We compare this method with the existing data concentration scheme, and also combine them. The experiments show that our technique saves the energy consumption up to 34% when a pair of 1.8' disks is used instead of a single 2.5' disk with a negligible increase in the average response time. The results also show that our method also saves up to 14.8% of disk energy consumption and improve the average I/O response time by up to 10 times over the existing scheme.

As the storage market has been expanded due to growing data size, the research on various kinds of storages such as cloud, USB, and external HDD(Hard Disk Drive) has been conducted in digital forensic aspects. NAS(Network-Attached Storage) can store the data over one TB(Tera Byte) and it is well used for private storage as well as for enterprise, but there is almost no research on NAS. This paper selects three NAS products that has the highest market share in domestic and foreign market, and suggests the process and method for data acquisition in live NAS System.

The present state of the design of swing arm actuators for optical disc drives is to obtain the high efficient dynamic characteristics within a very compact volume. As a necessary consequence, the need of the small form factor (SFF) storage device has been arisen as major interests in the information storage technology. In this paper, we suggest the miniaturized swing arm type actuator that has high efficient dynamic characteristics for SFF optical disk drive (ODD). For the operating mechanism, it uses a tracking electromagnetic (EM) circuit for a focusing motion together. Moreover, due to the size constraint, the thermal stability of optical head is important. Therefore, the actuator is designed to emit the heat, which is generated by optical pick-up, along the actuator body easily. Initial model is designed based on the topology optimization method considering the thermal conductivity. Then, the structural parts of the actuator are modified to maintain the high sensitivity and to have wide control bandwidth by the design of experiments method (DOE) and new concept of decreasing mass and inertia. Finally, a swing arm type actuator for SFF ODD is suggested and its dynamic characteristics are verified.

This paper presents a high speed ethernet communication and depulication method of communication to prevent decrease of reliability that was generated by high speed communication. Thus communication reliability was improved and this paper was considered that if any physical breakdown of line of communication occurred, other line of communication could operate collect. This paper used Flash memory for setting storage of backup data at Electric Car that have an humidity and a temperature and an impact. also improved reliability and besides matching data format to windows data format realized to confirm application program at PC or note book computer.

Cloud storage system uses a distributed file system for storing and managing data. Traditional distributed file system makes a triplication of data in order to restore data loss in disk failure. However, enforcing data replication method increases storage utilization and causes extra I/O operations during replication process. In this paper, we propose a data replication method using erasure codes in cloud storage system to improve storage space efficiency and I/O performance. In particular, according to data access frequency, the proposed method can reduce the number of data replications but using erasure codes can keep the same data recovery performance. Experimental results show that proposed method improves performance in storage efficiency 40%, read throughput 11%, write throughput 10% better than HDFS does.

With increasing demand for fast and reliable, yet economical data storage devices, the role of optical disk technology is becoming more important. In recent years, advanced laser technology combined with new materials has given the competitive edge over the traditional magnetic memory devices both in memory capacity and reliability of data retrieval. Continuing effort is being put into developing smaller and more complex structures for optical disks to increase their memory density. Characterization of such multilayered structure requires not only high spatial resolution for observation but also laborious specimen preparation. In this paper, the method of preparing optical disk specimens for TEM characterization is described in detail. The microstructural features in optical disks observed by TEM are also discussed.

The mass storage of data and the importance of storage capacity lately has emerged. In this paper, we suggest the new method which estimate life cycle from acceleration life test about 2.5 inch hard disk driver as mass storage, which minimize the difference between real market annual failure rate and estimated failure rate. we obtain market transfer capacity per hours from returned 2.5inch hard disk drives about 309 numbers and accelerating transfer capacity per hours from acceleration life test. we calculate acceleration factor about duty cycle and estimate annual failure rate from failure rate and acceleration factors: temperature acceleration factor, duty cycle acceleration factor, the transfer capacity per hour represent the 93.4 % of user is 5.8 GB/hour, the transfer capacity per hour from acceleration life test is 81.4 GB/hour. the acceleration factor of duty cycle is 14.1. annual failure rate is stabilized at market one year after, annual failure rate is between 0.3 and 0.378. estimated annual failure rate is 0.4, so it is matched at 75~94 % between estimate annual failure rate and market annual failure rate. This study influence the estimate method of annual failure rate by the result of acceleration life cycle of manufacture.

The performance of database applications with large sets of multidimensional data depends on the performance of its access methods and the underlying disk system. In modeling the disk system, even though modem disks are manufactured with multiple physical zones, conventional access methods have been developed based on a traditional disk model with many simplifying assumptions. Thus, there is a marked lack of investigation on how to enhance the performance of access methods given a zoned disk model. The paper proposes novel zoning techniques that can be applied to any multidimensional access methods, both static and dynamic, enhancing the effective data transfer rate of underlying disk system by fully utilizing its zone characteristics. Our zoning techniques include data placement algorithms for multidimensional index structures and accompanying localized query processing algorithms for range queries. The experimental results show that our zoning techniques significantly improve the query performance.
