Flash-based Solid State Drive (SSD) has been productively shipped and deployed in large
scale storage systems. However, a single flash-based SSD cannot satisfy the capacity …

Recently, unsupervised image segmentation has become increasingly popular. Starting
from a superpixel segmentation, an edge-weighted region adjacency graph is constructed …

Distributed interactive simulation provides an environment for realistic participation in virtual
worlds. Humans interact with the virtual world through interface devices such as switches …

The advent of big data age has brought about a growing performance and scale of the
storage system, as well as huge energy consumption. Based on the sequential data storage …

IT power usage is a significant concern. Data center energy consumption is estimated to
account for 1% to 1.5% of all energy consumption worldwide. Hardware designers, data …

Under the circumstance of big data, traditional storage systems face the big challenge of

The RAID6 provides high reliability using double-parity-update at cost of high write penalty.
In this paper, we propose HRAID6ML, a new logging architecture for RAID6 systems for …

The current power managements in RAID array are mostly designed to conserve energy by
spinning down partial disks of standard RAID architecture. However, spinning down several …

Many recent advanced applications of information systems require large amounts of data to
be stored in multiple hard disk drives (HDDs). The placement of data in these drives is quite …

The UK is the first country in the world to introduce a legally binding framework for tackling
climate change, and the implications of this are likely to be far-reaching for the public sector …
