This paper proposed an optimal operation strategy for a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) with a lithium-ion battery and lead-acid battery for mild hybrid electric vehicles (mild HEVs). The proposed mild HEV system is targeted to mount the electric motor and the battery to a conventional internal combustion engine vehicle. Because the proposed mild HEV includes the motor and energy storage device of small capacity, the system focuses on low system cost and small size. To overcome these limitations, it is necessary to use a lead acid battery which is used for a vehicle. Thus, it is possible to use more energy using HESS with a lithium battery and a lead storage battery. The HESS, which combines the lithium-ion battery and the secondary battery in parallel, can achieve better performance by using the two types of energy storage systems with different characteristics. However, the system requires an operation strategy because accurate and selective control of the batteries for each situation is necessary. In this paper, an optimal operation strategy is proposed considering characteristics of each energy storage system, state-of-charge (SOC), bidirectional converters, the desired output power, and driving conditions in the mild HEV system. The performance of the proposed system is evaluated through several case studies with respect to energy capacity, SOC, battery characteristic, and system efficiency.

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) utilize electric power as well as a mechanical engine for propulsion; therefore the performance of HEV s can be directly influenced by the characteristics of the Energy Storage System (ESS). The ESS for HEVs generally requires high power performance, long cycle life and reliability, as well as cost effectiveness. So the Hybrid Energy Storage System (HESS), which combines different kinds of storage devices, has been considered to fulfill both performance and cost requirements. To improve operating efficiency, cycle life, and cold cranking of the HESS, an advanced dynamic control regime with which pertinent storage devices in the HESS can be selectively operated based on their status was presented. Verification tests were performed to confirm the degree of improvement in energy efficiency. In this paper, an advanced HESS with improved an Battery Management System (BMS), which has optimal switching control function based on the estimated State of Charge (SOC), has been developed and verified.

The conventional hard disk has been the dominant database storage system for over 25 years. Recently, hybrid systems which incorporate the advantages of flash memory into the conventional hard disks are considered to be the next dominant storage systems to support databases for desktops and server computers. Their features are satisfying the requirements like enhanced data I/O, energy consumption and reduced boot time, and they are sufficient to hybrid storage systems as major database storages. However, we need to improve traditional index node management schemes based on B-Tree due to the relatively slow characteristics of hard disk operations, as compared to flash memory. In order to achieve this goal, we propose a new index node management scheme called FNC-Tree. FNC-Tree-based index node management enhanced search and update performance by caching data objects in unused free area of flash leaf nodes to reduce slow hard disk I/Os in index access processes.

Modern cloud computing is rapidly changing from traditional hypervisor-based virtual machines to container-based cloud-native environments. Due to limitations in I/O performance required for both virtual machines and containers, the use of high-speed storage (SSD, NVMe, etc.) is increasing, and in-memory computing using main memory is also emerging. Running a virtual environment on main memory gives better performance compared to other storage arrays. However, RAM used as main memory is expensive and due to its volatile characteristics, data is lost when the system goes down. Therefore, additional work is required to run the virtual environment in main memory. In this paper, we propose a hybrid in-memory storage that combines a block storage such as a high-speed SSD with main memory to safely operate virtual machines and containers on main memory. In addition, the proposed storage showed 6 times faster write speed and 42 times faster read operation compared to regular disks for virtual machines, and showed the average 12% improvement of container's performance tests.

최근 고성능의 SSD(Solid State Drive)가 등장하면서 단일노드의 입출력 성능이 대폭 상향되었다. 이에 SSD를 기반으로 하는 차세대 저장장치 플랫폼이 주목을 받게 되었고, 고속 연산이 필요한 서버 또는 데이터 센터 등에서 SSD 기반 저장장치를 구축하는 시도가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 SSD는 단위용량당 비용이 고가이기 때문에, SSD 기반 저장장치를 구성하기에는 아직 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문은 저가와 큰 용량이 장점인 HDD(Hard Disk Drive)와 SSD가 통합된 저장장치에서 파일을 관리하는 소프트웨어 HyPLVM(Hybrid Priority Logical Volume Manager)을 소개한다. HyPLVM은 사용자가 접근하는 파일, 디렉터리를 분석하여 파일에 우선순위를 부여하고, 이 우선순위 값에 따라 높으면 SSD에, 낮으면 HDD에 저장되도록 관리한다. 이로써, 접근빈도가 많은 파일에 한에서 SSD로 구성된 저장장치와 버금가는 입출력 성능을 산출하면서 저장장치 구축비용을 절감한다.

This paper proposes a high efficiency power conversion system for battery-ultracapacitor hybrid energy storages. The proposed system has only one bidirectional dc-dc converter for hybrid power source with batteries and ultracapacitors. The hybrid power source has bidirectional switching circuits for selecting one energy storage device. Bidirectional power flow between the energy storage device and high voltage capacitor can be controlled by one bidirectional converter. An asymmetrical switching method is applied to the bidirectional converter for high power efficiency. Switching power losses are reduced by zero-voltage switching of power switches. System operation and design considerations are presented. The experimental results are provided to verify the performance of the proposed system.

A hybrid system combining renewable technologies with diesel generators is a promising solution for rural electrification. Myanmar has many renewable energy resources, and many regions that cannot be supplied with electricity from the main grid. Therefore, in this study, we select a village in Myanmar, which is located far away from the substation, and evaluate the economic feasibility of a hybrid system for the village considering the specific local conditions and resource availability. We consider a hybrid system composed of a photovoltaic source, diesel generator, battery energy storage system, and converter. The load profiles of the household data from the village, and the solar radiation profiles are determined. The advantages of the hybrid system, in terms of cost, reliability, and environmental effects are analyzed through simulations using commercial software. The simulation results show that, for the selected village in Myanmar, a hybrid system with battery energy storage can reduce the cost and greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining reliability. We also obtain an optimized design in terms of the component size for the selected hybrid system with battery energy storage.
