Abstract

Recently, with the recent rapid development of memory technology, various types of memory are developed and are used to improve processing speed in data management systems. In particular, NAND flash memory is used as a main media for storing data in memory-based storage devices because it has a nonvolatile characteristic that it can maintain data even at the power off state. However, since the recently studied memory-based storage device consists of various types of memory such as MRAM and PRAM as well as NAND flash memory, research on memory management technology is needed to improve data processing performance and efficiency of media in a storage system composed of different types of memories. In this paper, we propose a memory mapping scheme thought technique for efficiently managing data in the storage device composed of various memories for data management. The proposed idea is a method of managing different memories using a single mapping table. This method can unify the address scheme of data and reduce the search cost of data stored in different memories for data tiering.

최근 메모리 기술의 급격한 발전으로 개발되고 있는 다양한 종류의 메모리는 데이터 관리 시스템에서 처리 속도 향상을 위해 활용되고 있다. 특히 NAND 플래시 메모리는 전원이 차단되어도 데이터를 유지할 수 있는 비휘발성 특징이 있으므로 메모리 기반 저장장치의 데이터 저장용 주요 미디어로 활용되고 있다. 그러나 최근 연구되고 있는 메모리 기반 저장장치는 NAND 플래시 메모리뿐만 아니라 MRAM과 PRAM 등 다양한 종류의 메모리로 구성되어 있고 추가로 새로운 특성이 있는 다양한 종류의 메모리가 개발되고 있다. 따라서 특성이 서로 다른 이종의 메모리들로 구성된 저장 시스템에서 미디어의 데이터 처리 성능과 효율 향상을 위한 메모리 관리 기술의 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 데이터 관리를 위해 다양한 메모리로 구성된 저장장치에서 데이터를 효율적으로 관리하기 위한 메모리 사상 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 아이디어는 서로 다른 이종 메모리를 하나의 사상 테이블을 활용하여 관리하는 방법이다. 이 방법은 데이터의 주소 체계를 통일할 수 있고 데이터 티어링(tiering)을 위해 서로 다른 메모리에 분할 저장된 데이터의 탐색 비용을 감소시킬 수 있다.
