In today’s Grids, files are usually managed by Grid data management systems that are superimposed on existing file and storage systems. In this position paper, we analyze this predominant approach and argue that object-based file systems can be an alternative when adapted to the characteristics of a Grid environment. We describe how we are solving the challenge of extending the object-based sto...

Accurate estimates of forest carbon storage and changes in storage capacity are critical for scientific assessment of the effects of forest management on the role of forests as carbon sinks. Up to now, several studies reported forest biomass carbon (FBC) in Liaoning Province based on data from China's Continuous Forest Inventory, however, their accuracy were still not known. This study compared...

Proper data placement schemes based on erasure correcting code are one of the most important components for a highly available data storage system. A new class of Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) array codes is presented for correcting triple storage failures, which is an extension of the double-erasure-correcting EVENODD code and is called the HDD-EOD code. The encoding and decoding procedures...

We propose a tamper-evident storage system based on probe storage with a patterned magnetic medium. This medium supports normal read/write operations by outof-plane magnetisation of individual magnetic dots. We report on measurements showing that in principle the medium also supports a separate class of write-once operation that destroys the out-of-plane magnetisation property of the dots irrev...

This study was conducted to evaluate how acom size (small, medium and large) and acorn storage duration (0, 5 and 17 months) influenced Quercus petraea (Mattuschka) moisture content and germination. Acorn size and storage duration did not significantly affect acorn moisture content, but they significantly affected acorn germination performance. When averaged for three acorn sizes, loss of germi...
