Object-based storage is an efficient storage solution that can handle unstructured data and shows better security and scalability than traditional block-based storage. However, in terms of power management, Object-based storage writes multiple copies in storage cluster, hence many servers consume unnecessary power in idle state. In order to resolve this problem, it is necessary to apply power management strategy by adjusting power mode of servers in idle state according to their workloads. In this paper, we proposed a new dynamic power management (DPM) method to transform power mode of storage servers dynamically according to workload information sent from proxy server. The experimental result shows that the proposed power management technic reduces total power consumption by 12% in the OpenStack based Swift object storage.

MIDAS-II is the storage system for BADA DBMS developed at ETRI. This paper describes the extension of MIDAS-II for incorporating the tertiary storage device such as an optical disk jukebox or a tape library, enabling MIDAS-II to function as a storage system of the data server that stores a massive amount of multimedia data. The MIDAS-II disk volume structure is extended to efficiently function as a volume for the tertiary storage device with multiple platters, which canstore huge amount of data of the order of tera bytes. The storage structure of the LOB is changed to efficiently manage the LOB data in the tertiary storage device. The data structures of the shared memory, the process structure, and the utilities in MIDAS-II are also extended to efficiently incorporating the tertiary storage device. The functionalities of each MIDAS-II API function are expanded to handle the tertiary storage device, while the prototypes of those functions are intact in order not to affect the existing application programs. The performance evaluation shows that the extended MIDAS-II works effectively with the tertiary storage device. All these extensions and the performance evaluation are conducted in the SunOS 5.4 environment.

In this paper, we propose SA hash algorithm to avoid upload identical files and design server system using proposed SA hash algorithm. Client to want to upload file examines the value of SA hash and if the same file is found in server system client use the existing file without upload. SA hash algorithm which is able to examine the identical-file divides original file into blocks of n bits. Original file's mod i bit and output hash value's i bit is calculated with XOR operation. It is SA hash algorithm's main routine to repeat the calculation with XOR until the end of original file. Using SA hash algorithm which is more efficient than MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-2, we can design server system to avoid uploading identical file and save storage capacity and upload-time of server system.

The recent development of overlay network technology enables distributed sharing of various types of contents. Although overlay network has great advantages as a huge content repository, it is practically difficult to directly provide such Internet service as streaming of contents. On the other hand, the media server, which is specialized in content services, has excellent service capabilities, but it suffers from the huge contents that are constantly created and requires large expansion of severs and storages, and thus requires much effort for efficient management of the huge repository. Hence, the association of an overlay network of huge storage with a media server of high performance content service will show a great synergy effect. In this paper, a location-aware scheme of constructing overlay networks and associating it with media server is proposed, and then cache-based contents management and service policy are proposed for efficient content service. The performance is analysed for one of the content services, streaming service.

As IoT systems such as smart farms and smart cities become popular, a large amount of data collected from many sensor nodes is sent to a server in the Internet, which causes network traffic explosion, delay in delivery, and increase of server's workload. To solve these problems, the concept of fog computing has been proposed to store data between IoT systems and servers. In this study, we implemented a software platform of the fog node and applied it to the prototype smart farm system in order to check whether the problems listed above can be solved when using the fog node. When the fog node is used, the time taken to control an IoT device is lower than the response time of the existing IoT device-server case. We confirmed that it can also solve the problem of the Internet traffic explosion and the workload increase in the server. We also showed that the intelligent control of IoT system is feasible by having the data visualization in the server and real time remote control, emergency notification in the fog node as well as data storage which is the basic capability of the fog node.

This paper describes a real time reliable monitoring method and analysis system using wrist type oximeter for ubiquitous healthcare service based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard. Photoplethysmograph(PPG) is simple and cost effective technique to measure blood volume change. In order to obtain and monitor physiological body signals continuously, a small size and low power consumption wrist type oximeter is designed for the measurement of oxygen saturation of a patient unobtrusively. The measured data is transferred to a central PC or server computer by using wireless sensor nodes in wireless sensor network for storage and analysis purposes. LabVIEW server program is designed to monitor stress indicator from heart rate variability(HRV) and process the measured PPG to accelerated plethysmograph(APG) by appling second order derivatives in server PC. These experimental results demonstrate that APG can precisely describe the features of an individual's PPG and be used as estimation of vascular elasticity for blood circulation.

최근, IT 기술의 발달로 다양한 스마트 디바이스 및 서비스 증가로 빅 데이터 시대가 도래되었다. 이에 빅 데이터를 저장하기 위한 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있지만 데이터 저장을 위한 측면에 중점을 두어 본질적인 서버 운용에 대한 연구가 도외시 되고 없다. 또한, 기존의 서버 운용은 장애 발생시 페일 오버나 리던던시를 통해 대용을 하고 있지만, 이러한 기법은 연속적인 장애 발생에 대한 대응이 불가하다. 본 논문에서는 빅 데이터를 저장하기 위한 DSV(Desktop Storage Virtualization) 환경에서 서버 장애를 효율적으로 대응하는 M2S2(Metadata Management for Server Sustainability)를 제안한다. M2S2는 독립적으로 분산된 데스크당의 성능, 거리, 저장된 데이터양을 기준으로 최적의 대체 서버가 수행된다. 또한, 대체 서버의 장애 발생시 하위 데스크탑 중에 최적의 대체 서버가 수행 반복됨으로써 지속적인 서버 운용이 가능하다.

In this paper, we propose a scheduling scheme that can efficiently serve I/O requests having deadlines in flash storage. The I/O requests with deadlines, namely, real-time requests, are assumed to be issued for streaming services of continuous media. Since a Web-based streaming server commonly supports downloads of HTMLs or images, we also aim to quickly process non-real-time I/O requests, together with real-time ones. For this purpose, we adopt the well-known rate-reservation EDF (RR-EDF) algorithm for determining scheduling priorities among mixed I/O requests. In fact, for the use of an EDF-style algorithm, overhead of task's switching should be low and predictable, as with its application of CPU scheduling. In other words, the EDF algorithm is inherently unsuitable for scheduling I/O requests in HDD storage because of highly varying latency times of HDD. Unlike HDD, time for reading a block in flash storage is almost uniform with respect to its physical location. This is because flash storage has no mechanical component, differently from HDD. By capitalizing on this uniform block read time, we compute bandwidth utilization rates of real-time requests from streams. Then, the RR-EDF algorithm is applied for determining how much storage bandwidth can be assigned to non-real-time requests, while meeting deadlines of real-time requests. From this, we can improve the service times of non-real-time requests, which are issued for downloads of static files. Because the proposed scheme can expand flexibly the scheduling periods of streams, it can provide a full usage of slack times, thereby improving the overall throughput of flash storage significantly.
