Erasure in Design Space Exploration
نویسندگان
چکیده
Design space explorers support designers through the metaphor of exploration, a guided movement through a space of possibilities. As systems, design space explorers present a mixed-initiative environment in which designers engage in their work helped by a computer to an extent both computationally possible and desired by the designer. Design space explorers provide a set of generative operators by which states in a space may be discovered. A subsumption-based design space explorer structures the space in which it navigates by a relation of information specificity. In particular, it conditions its exploration operators so that they move in predictable ways in the underlying space of designs. We have extended the formal system of typed features structures to support subsumption-based design space exploration. This paper discusses the exploration operators available when subsumption-based design space explorers are implemented in typed feature structures. Of particular interest is the handling of erasure, where the constraint on generative operators to be monotonic wrt information specificity leads to a surprisingly clean view of erasure.

Navigating Subsumption-based Design Spaces
Design space explorers are information-rich environments conceived for providing effective support for electronic design processes. A subsumption-based design space structures the partial designs in the environment by a relation of information specificity. It provides formal exploration operators for predictive, goal-directed movement in the underlying space of designs and an interaction model ...
متن کاملA Non-MDS Erasure Code Scheme for Storage Applications
This paper investigates the use of redundancy and self repairing against node failures indistributed storage systems using a novel non-MDS erasure code. In replication method, accessto one replication node is adequate to reconstruct a lost node, while in MDS erasure codedsystems which are optimal in terms of redundancy-reliability tradeoff, a single node failure isrepaired after recovering the ...
متن کاملParticipatory Design; A New Approach to Regenerate the Public Space
The following study aims to present an innovative approach for Design. Participatory Design is the model of direct involvement of different social groups in the design from functional tools to environments, social institutions and businesses. Diverse collection of practices has been developed to support this direct involvement by Participatory Design. People are invited to participate during di...
متن کاملParity logging with reserved space: towards efficient updates and recovery in erasure-coded clustered storage
Many modern storage systems adopt erasure coding to provide data availability guarantees with low redundancy. Log-based storage is often used to append new data rather than overwrite existing data so as to achieve high update efficiency, but introduces significant I/O overhead during recovery due to reassembling updates from data and parity chunks. We propose parity logging with reserved space,...
