We propose three multi-level modulation codes of the code rate 1/2 for holographic data storage considered as a promising candidate for next generation storage systems. Since a pixel with multi-levels can represent more than 1 bit, it is possible to increase the storage capacity and have many codewords. Thus, we can choose a code that the minimum distance is as far as possible. When we compare the codes with the code rate 1/2, the performance of the code with small number of levels is better than that of large number of levels.

In this paper, we propose an enhanced snapshot technique that solves performance degradation when snapshot is initiated for the storage cluster system. However, traditional snapshot technique has some limits adapted to large amount storage shared by multi-hosts in the following aspects. As volume size grows, (1) it deteriorates crucially the performance of write operations due to additional disk access to verify COW is performed. (2) Also it increases excessively the blocking time of write operation performed during the snapshot creation time. (3)Finally, it deteriorates the performance of write operations due to additional disk I/O for mapping block caused by the verification of COW. In this paper, we propose an efficient snapshot technique for large amount storage shared by multi-hosts in SAN Environments. We eliminate the blocking time of write operation caused by freezing while a snapshot creation is performing. Also to improve the performance of write operation when snapshot is taken, we introduce First Allocation Bit(FAB) and Snapshot Status Bit(SSB). It improves performance of write operation by reducing an additional disk access to volume disk for getting snapshot mapping block. We design and implement an efficient snapshot technique, while the snapshot deletion time, improve performance by deallocation of COW data block using SSB of original mapping entry without snapshot mapping entry obtained mapping block read from the shared disk.

A Holographic data storage has some advantage of fast transmission, short access time and high storage capacity. However, it has several problems such as inter-symbol interference, inter-page interference and misalignment. Especially, for multi-level holographic data storage system, since one pixel contains more than 1bit, the system is more vulnerable to the error. In this paper, we propose a 3/4 modulation code which mitigate inter-symbol interference for 4-level holographic data storage.

This paper presents an implementation of a multi-channel speech surveillance system over telephone lines using TMS320C31 DSP chips. The incoming speech into each telephone line are first compressed simultaneously in real-time by the popular vector-sum excited linear predictive (VSELP) speech coding algorithm at the rate of 8 Kbps. The compressed steech bit streams are then multiplexed with those of other users. The multiplexed speech bit streams are transferred to the system storage equipments with some other required information so that a system operator can later monitor the stored speech data whenever it is necessary. The host program runs under Microsoft Windows95 for an efficient man-machine interface and a future upgrade-ability. We have confirmed that the overall 64-channel system operates satisfactorily in realtime. We also have checked approximately up to 2,880 total hours of recording capability of the system on a playback module and two removable backup drives.

We propose an adaptive threshold detector algorithm for multi-level holographic data storage based on the expectation-maximization (EM) method. In this paper, the signal intensities that are passed through the four-level holographic channel are modeled as a four Gaussian mixture with unknown DC offsets and the threshold levels are estimated based on the maximum likelihood criterion. We compare the bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed algorithm with the non-adaptive threshold detection algorithm for various levels of DC offset and misalignments. Our proposed algorithm shows consistently acceptable performance when the DC offset variance is fixed or the misalignments are lower than 20%. When the DC offset varies with each page, the BER of the proposed method is acceptable when the misalignments are lower than 10% and DC offset variance is 0.001.

In the holographic data storage system (HDSS), the data regarding the volume of a storage medium are recorded and read by the page, and the transmission rate and storage capacity can be increased because of two-dimensional, page-oriented data processing; furthermore, the multi-level HDSS can store more than one bit per pixel. For this same reason, however, and unlike conventional data-storage systems, the HDSS is hampered by two-dimensional (2D) intersymbol interference (ISI) and interpage interference (IPI). Progress regarding the published papers on 2D ISI, which is more severe in the multi-level HDSS, continues; however, mitigation of both 2D ISI and IPI in terms of the multi-level HDSS has not yet been studied. In this paper, we therefore propose a 4-level balanced-modulation code that simultaneously mitigates 2D ISI and IPI.

In the holographic data storage system, the data can be stored more than one bit per pixel and the storage capacity and transmission rate can be increased. In this paper, we proposed a sparse-ON pixel 4/6 balanced-modulation code that the code rate is 1.33 (bit/pixel) with uniform page density. Even though the performance of the proposed sparse-ON pixel 4/6 balanced-code is similar to 2/3 and 6/9 modulation codes, it can increase the storage capacity more than these modulation codes and also store more pages in a volume by reducing the rate of ON pixels to mitigate IPI (inter-page interference).

In this paper, identifier for thermal storage system using multi-layer feedforward neural network (MFNN) is designed. It is very difficult to control thermal storage system, since thermal storage system is nonlinear and its time constant is very large. Thus, in the MFNN, delta-bar-delta algorithm for high running speed and 2-bit status input are used. Also hardware using microprocessor for identifier is developed. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method can predict temperature more accurately.

Holographic data storage system is affected by two dimensional intersymbol interference and inter-page interference. Especially, for multi-level holographic data storage system, since one pixel contains more than 1 bit, the system is more vulnerable to the error. In this paper, we propose a 2/3 modulation code for 4-level holographic data storage system. The proposed modulation code with error correcting capability could be compensated these interferences. Also, in this paper, we proposed a Viterbi decoder for 2/3 modulation code. The proposed Viterbi decoder eliminates unnecessary calculation. As a result, proposed 2/3 modulation code and Viterbi decoder has shown better performance than conventional one.

Recently, the memory is used in many electronic devices, thus, the many researchers make a study of the memory. To increase a storage capacity per memory block, the researchers study for reducing the fabrication process of memory and multi-level cell memory which is storing more than 2-bits in a cell. However, the multi-level cell memory has low bit-error rates by various noises. In this paper, we study the noise of multi-level cell memory, and we propose the channel model of multi-level cell memory.
