Data storage was thought to be inside of or next to server cases but advances in networking technology make the storage system to be located far away from the main computer. In Internet era with explosive data increases, balanced development of storage and transmission systems is required. SAN(Storage Area Network) and NAS(Network Attached Storage) reflect these requirements. It is important to know the capacity and limit of the complex storage network system to got the optimal performance from it. The capacity data is used for performance tuning and making purchasing decision of storage. This paper suggests an analytic model of storage network system as queuing network and proves the model though simulation model.

One of important technology that must improve compulsorily on information-oriented society stores, search and transmit cultural contents data of great quantity in heterogeneous environment. SAN appeared by solution to resolve the problem such as integration management of heterogeneous system data, effective practical use of storage, data transmission limit is happened from here. SAN is system that manage and shares data of large quantity efficiently attaching directly to high speed network such as Fiber Channel that storage system has been attached to server individually SAN became more complicated than existent storage environment although offer much advantage such as decrease of storage expense and flexibility of system configuration. This study argues management way could consider in such environment that understand complexity and component of networked storage system.

A network-coding-based scheme is proposed to improve the energy efficiency of distributed storage systems in WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks). We mainly focus on two problems: firstly, consideration is given to effective distributed storage technology; secondly, we address how to effectively repair the data in failed storage nodes. For the first problem, we propose a method to obtain a sparse generator matrix to construct network codes, and this sparse generator matrix is proven to be the sparsest. Benefiting from this matrix, the energy consumption required to implement distributed storage is reduced. For the second problem, we designed a network-coding-based iterative repair method, which adequately utilizes the idea of re-encoding at intermediate nodes from network coding theory. Benefiting from the re-encoding, the energy consumption required by data repair is significantly reduced. Moreover, we provide an explicit lower bound of field size required by this scheme, which implies that it can work over a small field and the required computation overhead is very low. The simulation result verifies that the proposed scheme not only reduces the total energy consumption required to implement distributed storage system in WSNs, but also balances energy consumption of the networks.

Explosively growing service of digital multimedia data increases the need for highly scalable low-cost storage. This paper proposes the new storage architecture based on torus network which does not need network switch and erasure coding for efficient storage usage for high scalability and efficient disk utilization. The proposed model has to compensate for the disadvantage of long network latency and network processing overhead of torus network. The proposed storage model was compared to two most popular distributed file system, GlusterFS and Ceph distributed file systems through a prototype implementation. The performance of prototype system shows outstanding results than erasure coding policy of two file systems and mostly even better results than replication policy of them.

Optimal operation of a combined sewer network with distributed storage facilities aims to use the whole retention capacity of all reservoirs efficiently before overflows take place somewhere in the considered network system. An efficient real-time network control (RTNC) strategy has been emerging as an attractive approach for reducing substantially the overflows from a sewer network compared to the conventional fixed or manually adjusted gate setting method, but the related concrete framework for RTC development has not been throughly introduced so far. The main goal of this study is to give a detailed description of the RTNC systems via reviewing several guidelines published abroad, and finally to suggest methods for the proper application of RTNC on distributed storage facilities. Especially, this study is focused on emphasizing the importance of hierarchical structure of RTNC system that consists of three control layers (management, global control and local control). Further, with regard to the global control layer which is responsible for the central overall network control, the wide-ranging details of two components (adaption and optimization layers) are also presented. This study can provide the valuable basis for the RTNC implementation in the particular sewer network with distributed multiple storage facilities.

As the Fourth Industrial Revolution era began, a variety of devices are running on the cloud. These various devices continue to generate various types of data or large amounts of multimedia data. To handle this situation, a large amount of storage is required, and big data technology is required to process stored data and obtain accurate information. NAS (Network Attached Storage) or SAN (Storage Area Network) technology is typically used to build high-speed, high-capacity storage in a network-based environment. In this paper, we propose a method to construct a mass storage device using Network-DAS which is an extension technology of DAS (Direct Attached Storage). Benchmark experiments were performed to verify the scalability of the storage system with 76 HDD. Experimental results show that the proposed high performance mass storage system is scalable and reliable.

As the dependency to network system and demands of efficient storage systems rapidly grows in every networking filed, the current trends initiated by explosive networked data grow due to the wide-spread of internet multimedia data and internet requires a paradigm shift from computing-centric to data-centric in storagesystems. Furthermore, the new environment of file systems such as NAS(Network Attached Storage) and SAN(Storage Area Network) is adopted to the existing storage paradigm for Providing high availability and efficient data access. We describe the design issues and system components of SANiqueTM, which is the cluster file system based on SAN environment. SANiqueTM has the capability of transferring the user data from the network-attached SAN disk to client applications directly We, especially, present the protocol and functionality of the global buffer manager in our cluster file system.

Although the accuracy of handwritten character recognition based on deep networks has been shown to be superior to that of the traditional method, the use of an overly deep network significantly increases time consumption during parameter training. For this reason, this paper took the training time and recognition accuracy into consideration and proposed a novel handwritten character recognition algorithm with newly designed network structure, which is based on an extended nonlinear kernel residual network. This network is a non-extremely deep network, and its main design is as follows:(1) Design of an unsupervised apriori algorithm for intra-class clustering, making the subsequent network training more pertinent; (2) presentation of an intermediate convolution model with a pre-processed width level of 2;(3) presentation of a composite residual structure that designs a multi-level quick link; and (4) addition of a Dropout layer after the parameter optimization. The algorithm shows superior results on MNIST and SVHN dataset, which are two character benchmark recognition datasets, and achieves better recognition accuracy and higher recognition efficiency than other deep structures with the same number of layers.

In this paper, we propose the design and implementation of the storage-based data sharing system in the separate network environment to improve efficiency of data transmission. The previous system generates files per received packet and transmit files to another network through storage. This system causes inefficiency by reading unnecessary blocks, when it transmits a number of files through storage. Our proposed system deals with this inefficiency by adopting concept of snapshot. Consequently, we create one file with snapshot so that the number of files can be reduced and the file size can be optimized according to the block size. The proposed system improves the response time significantly with the minimized reading of unnecessary blocks, compared to the previous system.
