This paper provides evidence of a feature of Hard-Disk Drives (HDDs), that we call File System Genome. Such a feature is originated by the areas where (on the HDD) the file blocks are placed by the operating system during the installation procedure. It appears from our study that the File System Genome is a distinctive and unique feature of each individual HDD. In particular, our extensive set ...

NAND flash-based solid-state drives (SSDs) are increasingly popular in enterprise server systems because of their advantages over hard disk drives such as higher performance and lower power consumption. However, the limited and unpredictable lifetime of SSDs remains to be a serious obstacle to wider adoption of SSDs in enterprise systems. In this paper, we propose a novel recovery-aware dynamic...

we have developed a three level implicit method for solution of the helmholtz equation. using the cubic spline in space and nite dierence in time directions. the approach has been modied to drive numerov type nite dierence method. the method yield the tri- diagonal linear system of algebraic equations which can be solved by using a tri-diagonal solver. stability and error estimation of the...

in this research paper, the performance of an air-cored axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator is evaluated for low speed, direct drive applications using 3d finite element modeling and experimental tests. the structure of the considered machine consists of double rotor and coreless stator, which results in the absence of core losses, reduction of stator weight and elimination of cog...

in this paper, the finite element analysis of stability problem of vehicle composite drive shafts subjected to torsional loading is studied. first, using the minimum total potential energy principle, the governing equations are derived and then they are solved by finite element method. the initial geometrical imperfection which is usually in the form of radial displacement, is taken into consid...
