As interest in DNA-based information storage grows, the costs of synthesis have been identified as a key bottleneck. A potential direction is to tune for data. Data strands tend be composed small set recurring code word sequences, and they contain longer sequences repeated To exploit these properties, we propose new framework called DINOS. DINOS consists three parts: (i) The first hierarchical ...

The AGATA is a shell detector for gamma-ray spectroscopy. At the present stage of the project the AGATA collaboration is running an AGATA-demonstrator, which is a small part (only 12 Germanium crystals) of the future full AGATA spectrometer (180 crystals). The AGATA-demonstrator is producing a huge amount of raw-data with a high throughput. This paper focuses on the economics study regarding va...

The key to storage manageability is adaptation. In traditional storage systems, adaptation is performed by a human administrator, who must assess problems, and then manually adjust various knobs and levers to bring the behavior of the system back to an acceptable level. Future storage systems must themselves adapt, and in doing so, reduce the need for manual intervention. In this paper, we desc...

It is important for mass storage system to distribute access requests dynamically and balanced between several metadata servers (MDS). Based on analyzing the features of metadata management in the mass storage system, this paper designs the structure of metadata management module, proposes the hash postfix table(HPT) based metadata management algorithm, uses HPT to adjust the distribution of ac...

The ideal storage system is always available, is incrementally expandable, scales in performance as new components are added, and requires no management. Existing storage systems are far from this ideal. The recent introduction of low-cost, scalable, high-performance networks allows us to re-examine the way we build storage systems and to investigate storage architectures that bring us closer t...
