유비쿼터스 환경에 대한 관심과 휴대용 컴퓨팅 기기의 보급으로 가까운 미래의 사람들은 언제 어디서나 네트워크를 통해 데이터 접근이 가능하게 될 것이다. 특히 영화나 음악과 같은 멀티미디어 데이터의 폭발적인 증가로 인해 확장성 있는 네트워크 스토리지 시스템의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. SAN(Storage Area Network)은 높은 확장성과 빠른 속도를 제공하여 엔터프라이즈 환경에 적합한 스토리지 네트워크 시스템이다. 최근에 SAN 환경은 SCSI Architecture Model(SAM)의 표준으로 채택된 iSCSI를 이용한 IP기반의 SAN으로 옳겨가고 있다. 본 논문에서는 iSCSI 기반의 IP SAN환경에서 서비스 클라이언트가 증가함에 따라 스토리지 서버의 부하가 커지는 문제를 해결하기 위해 스토리지 디바이스에서 클라이언트로 데이터를 직접 전송하는 방안을 제안한다.

IPv6 is the internet protocol for next generation which can solve the problem of IPv4 protocol. Mobile IPv6 efficiently provides the mobility for mobile devices holding the properties of IPv6. iSCSI(Internet Small Computer System Interface) is a block-oriented storage access protocol that enables a user to recognize a remote storage as their own local block device through general TCP/IP networks. Since iSCSI uses a standard Ethernet switch and router for this kind of access, it can not only be applized to Ethernet technologies, but can also be used to create a storage networking system without any distance restrictions that can equally be applied to a wireless network environment. Accordingly, this paper presents an alternative approach to overcome the limited storage space of mobile devices based on the IPv6 iSCSI initiator driver which was originally designed for wired networks. Also, this paper describes about the implementation and performance analysis of mobile education service system using virtual storage devices in IPv6 wireless networks.

Networked digital signage downloads necessary multimedia contents from a large-sized storage on WAN to its local disk of a limited size before starting their playback. If the required time to download the entire contents gets longer, a start time to play the contents at the digital signage could be delayed. In this paper, we propose a hybrid storage architecture that not only inserts an iSCSI storage layer between the existing local disk and the WAN storage, but offers a contents caching scheme in order to obtain all the necessary contents in digital signage rapidly. The proposed caching scheme determines how to place the downloaded contents both in the local disk and the iSCSI storage. Uniquely, the proposed caching scheme manages the iSCSI storage space by dividing it into two regions: (1) in one region, the digital signage can play the contents directly without downloading them into the local disk; (2) in the other region, the digital signage cannot. Performance evaluations on a simulator and an actual system with workloads of various contents show that a contents-downloading time of the hybrid storage architecture is at maximum three times shorter than that of the existing storage architecture.

SCST(The generic SCSI target subsystem for Linux) enables developers to make SCSI target storage and supports various SCSI network protocol such as iSCSI, FC, SRP. In this paper, we propose storage virtualization method using SCST and virtualize all flash array as high performance storage through 4Gb Fiber Channel, 10Gb Ethernet and 40Gb Infiniband and evaluate their performance, respectively. Experimental result shows that 40Gb infiniband network appliance have better performance than others. In case of sequential/random read, 40Gb infiniband network appliance shows 78% and 79% of local all flash array performance attached to SCSI target system. In case of sequential/random write, it shows 83% and 88% of local flash array performance attached to SCSI target system.

An automated healthcare monitoring is demand of time, lot of problems occurring just because of less monitoring of patients health condition on time. In this paper an embedded healthcare service is proposed by an iSCSI protocol on an automated multi-agent coordination by resource-constrained devices controlled system for healthcare service. The coordination between the resource constrained devices (e.g. PDA, SmartPhone, Tablet PC), and automated agents are maintained by a two-way handshaking mode iSCSI protocol. The automated health care control could be useable, and beneficial in the repetitive way. A fully centralized control is not applicable for this kind of approach.

The sharing of caches among Web proxies is an important technique to reduce Web Traffic and alleviate network bottlenecks. Additionally, due to emerging network technologies cooperative Web caching among proxies shows great promise to become an effective approach for reducing Web document access latencies. Nevertheless it is not widely deployed due to the overhead of existing protocols such as ICP. We propose iSCSI-based hierarchical web caching scheme which provides more improved performance than existing web caching scheme.

Because of the rapid increasing of network user, there are some problems to tolerate the network overhead. Recently, the research and technology of the user-level for high performance and low latency than TCP/IP which relied upon the kernel for processing the messages. For example, there is an Infiniband technology. The Infiniband Trade Association (IBTA) has been proposed as an industry standard for both communication between processing node and I/O devices and for inter-processor communication. It replaces the traditional bus-based interconnect with a switch-based network for connecting processing node and I/O devices. Also Infiniband uses RDMA (Remote DMA) for low latency of CPU and OS to communicate between Remote nodes. In this paper, we develop the SRP (SCSI RDMA Protocol) which is Storage Access Protocol on Infiniband network. And will compare to FC (Fibre Channle) based I-SCSI (Internet SCSI) that it is used to access storage on Etherent Fabric.

클라우드 시스템에서 사용되는 스토리지 서버는 다수의 워크로드가 혼재됨으로 인하여 상당수의 쓰기 연산이 Small Random한 특성을 가지게 된다. 좀 더 높은 성능을 위해서 이런 특성에 적합한 스토리지 서버를 구축하는 것이 필요하며 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 자주 사용되는 스토리지 프로토콜인 NFS와 iSCSI를 비교하여 어떤 쪽이 Small Random Write에 더 적합한지 실험을 통해 알아 보았다. 결과적으로 Small Random Write들은 캐시에 합쳐지는 효과에 상당한 영향을 받으며, 이런 캐시 효과가 더 효율적인 것은 iSCSI 임을 확인하였다.
