IT기업뿐만 아니라 다양한 기업들이 빅데이터, 인공지능, 블록체인 등 많은 양의 컴퓨터 자원 (CPU, RAM 등)을 요구하는 기술들을 서비스화 하고 있다. 따라서 한정된 차원으로 효율적인 서비스를 운영하는 것도 주요 이슈가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 오픈소스 RDBMS 인 MariaDB와 PostgreSQL을 프로파일링하여 CPU 자원 효율성 관점에서 비교한다. 연구 결과 인터넷 서비스 환경에서 MariaDB가 PostgreSQL보다 버퍼 풀로 인해 페이지 캐시 참조율이 낮고, page fault 수가 적어 CPU 오버헤드가 더 작다는 것을 입증하였다.

Storage Class Memory(SCM), such as PRAM, FRAM and MRAM, are expected to be comparable to DRAM in terms of access speed and to Flash memory in terms of capacity in a near future. In this paper, assuming that not only the secondary storage (HDD or Flash memory) but also the primary memory (DRAM) will be replaced by SCM in the future computer systems, we propose an efficient file access framework for the SCM based computer systems. The proposed framework do not assign exclusive area in the SCM to the file system and uses various memory-related techniques, such as unified data access path, zero-copy data read using file mapping, copy-on-write, and multiple page pre-faulting for file management. Based on the preliminary experimental results, we could conclude that the proposed framework can be an efficient baseline for designing a new operating system for the SCM based computer systems.

The embedded system has less fast CPU and lower memory than PC(personal Computer) or Workstation system. Therefore embedded operating is system is designed to efficiently use the limited resource in the system. Virtual memory management or the embedded linux have a low efficiency when page fault is occurred to get a data from I/O device. Because a data is moving from the swap device to main memory. This paper suggests virtual memory compression algorithm for improving in virtual memory management and capacity of space. In this paper, we present a way to performance implement a virtual memory compression system that achieves significant improvement for the embedded system.

In this paper, we designed and implemented realtime DID(digital information display) system based on web server that displayed multimedia contents. The contents are weather, news information on the internet web sites and public relations or advertisements data on local systems. The DID system has client/server architecture that the server send to client that schedule informations and multimedia contents received form web server and the client displayed the contents though scheduled information. Therefore the systems overcome network fault for the mean time. Also, the system has realtime services of web page filtering function that extract the partial information of specific web pages.

In this paper, we propose a simple hardware reporting method for errors in soft-RAID systems of Linux OS. Compared with other reporting methods, the proposed method displays error status intuitively without any additional access process such as log-in process or home-page access. In particular, the server actively displays the error status, so the administrator can take immediate action. In order to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method, the experimental circuit was constructed and the experimental results showed that the error was actively displayed when an error occurred in the storage device. As such, a soft-RAID system can perform almost the same function as a hardware RAID system, thereby ensuring server data reliability at low cost.

Traditional operating systems use a virtual memory to provide users with a bigger memory than a physical memory. The virtual memory augments the insufficient physical memory by the swap device. Since disks are usually used as the swap device, the cost of a page fault is relatively high compared to the access cost of the physical memory. Recently, numerous papers have investigated the Network RAM in order to exploit the idle memory in the network instead of disks. Since today's distributed systems are interconnected with high-performance networks, the network latency is far smaller than the disk access latency In this paper we design and implement the Network RAM using block device driver on Linux. This is the first implementation of the Network RAM on Linux. We propose the new reliability method to recover the page when the other workstation's memory is damaged. The system using the Network RAM as the swap device reduces the execution time by 40.3% than the system using the disk as the swap device. The performance results suggest that the new reliability method that use the processor more efficiently has the similar execution time with others, but uses smaller server memory and generates less message traffic than others.

Emerging next-generation storage technologies such as non-volatile memory will help eliminate almost all of the storage latency that has plagued previous storage devices. In conventional storage systems, the latency of slow storage devices dominates access latency; hence, software efficiency is not critical. With low-latency storage, software costs can quickly dominate memory latency. Hence, researchers have proposed the memory mapped file I/O to avoid the software overhead. Mapping a file into the user memory space enables users to access the file directly. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the complicated I/O stack. This minimizes the number of user/kernel mode switchings. In addition, there is no data copy between kernel and user areas. Despite of the benefits in the memory mapped file I/O, its overhead still needs to be addressed, as the existing mechanism for the memory mapped file I/O is designed for slow block devices. In this paper, we identify the overheads of the memory mapped file I/O via experiments.

NAND flash memory has advantages of non-volatility, little power consumption and fast access time. However, it suffers from inability that dose not provide to update-in-place and the erase cycle is limited. Moreover, the unit of read and write operations is a page. A NAND flash file system called YAFFS has been proposed. But YAFFS has several problems to be addressed. In this paper, the Reliable Flash File System(RFFS) for NAND flash memory is designed and evaluated. In designing a file system the following four issues must be considered in particular for the design: (i) to minimize a repairing time when the system fault occurs, (ii) to balance the number of block erase operations by offering wear leveling policy, and (iii) to reduce turnaround time of memory operations by reducing the amount of data written. We demonstrate and evaluate the performance of the proposed schemes.

Flash memory has been increasingly used in handhold devices not only for data storage, but also for code storage. Because NAND flash memory only provides sequential access feature, a traditionally accepted solution to execute the program from NAND flash memory is shadowing. But, shadowing has significant drawbacks increasing a booting time of the system and consuming severe DRAM space. Demand paging has obtained significant attention for program execution from NAND flash memory. But. one of the issues is that there has been no effort to bound demand paging cost in flash memory and to analyze the worst case performance of demand paging. For the worst case timing analysis of programs running from NAND flash memory. the worst case demand paging costs should be estimated. In this paper, we propose two different WCRT analysis methods considering demand paging costs, DP-Pessimistic and DP-Accurate, depending on the accuracy and the complexity of analysis. Also, we compare the accuracy butween DP-Pessimistic and DP-Accurate by using the simulation.
