Storage Class Memory (SCM) has both characteristics of non-volatility and random byte addressability. The advent of SCM can bring about novel and innovative features that are not possible in con ventional computing systems. This paper suggests a new system design that turns on/off a system instantly. To do this, we replace the main memory with SCM to retain the volatile system states as the system is turned off. We implement our prototype in an embedded environment and measure its system on/off time.

This paper presents a method of seismic analysis for a cylindrical liquid storage structure on/in horizontally layered half.space considering the effects of the interior fluid and exterior soil medium in the frequency domain. To capture the essence of fluid-structure-soil interaction effects effectively, a mixed finite element with two-field (u, p) approximation is employed to model the compressive inviscid fluid, while the structure and soil medium are presented by the 3-D axisymmetric finite elements and dynamic infinite elements. The present FE-based method can be applied to the system with complex geometry of fluid region as well as with inhomogeneous near-field soil medium, since it can directly model both the fluid and the soil. For the purpose of verification, dominant peak frequencies in transfer functions for horizontal motions of cylindrical fluid storage tanks with rigid massless foundation on a homogeneous viscoelastic half.space are compared with those by two different added mass approaches for the fluid motion. The comparison indicates that the Present FE-based methodology gives accurate solution for the fluid-structure-soil interaction problem. Finally, as a demonstration of versatility of the present study, a seismic analysis for a real-scale LNG storage tank embedded in layered half.space is carried out, and its member forces along the height of the structure are compared with those by an added mass approach developed by the present writers.

In order to get the surface characteristics of the HDI of HDD, the surface damage mechanisms must be totally understood. Particle contamination in hard disk drives is a big concern in today's magnetic recording industry since they are major sources of reliability problems. Namely upon contact with the slider or a contaminant particle, the disk may be scratched or the particles may be embedded into the disk surface. In this work, comparison of scratches was made between those found on actual hard disks and those created using a scratch tester. It was found that ramp loading method is an effective way to make similar scratches as the actual ones. From the ramp loading condition, the relationship between the pressure and the scratch track width could be identified.

Natural graphite is obtained from an abandoned open-cast mine and purified by a simple, eco-friendly and affordable beneficiation process including ball milling and flotation process. Both raw graphite (55 wt %) and its concentrate (85 wt %) were electrochemically tested in order to evaluate these materials as anode materials for Li-ion and Na-ion batteries. It was found that both raw and purified graphites exhibit good electrochemical activities with respect to lithium and sodium ions through completely different reaction mechanisms. The encouraging results demonstrated in this work suggest that both raw and graphite concentrates after flotation could be used respectively for stationary and embedded applications. This strategy would help in developing local electrical storage systems with a significantly low environmental footprint.

This study is about spin half add operations in 𝓑₂ and 𝓑₃. The burden of technological structures has increased due to the increase in the use of today's technological applications or the processes in the digital systems used. This has increased the importance of fast transactions and storage areas. For this, less transactions, more gain and storage space are foreseen. We have handle tit (triple digit) system instead of bit (binary digit). 729 is reached in 3⁶ in 𝓑₃ while 256 is reached with 2⁸ in 𝓑₂. The volume and number of transactions are shortened in 𝓑₃. The limited storage space at the maximum level is storaged. The logic connectors and the complement of an element in 𝓑₂ and the course of the connectors and the complements of the elements in 𝓑₃ are examined. "Carry" calculations in calculating addition and "borrow" in calculating difference are given in 𝓑₃. The logic structure 𝓑₂ is seen to embedded in the logic structure 𝓑₃. This situation enriches the logic structure. Some theorems and lemmas and properties in logic structure 𝓑₂ are extended to logic structure 𝓑₃.

The density of Memory has been increased by great challenge for memory technology. Therefore, elements of memory become more smaller than before and the sensitivity to faults increases. As a result of these changes, memory testing becomes more complex. In addition, as the number of storage elements per chip increases, the test cost becomes more remarkable as the cost per transistor drops. Recent development in system-on-chip (SOC) technology makes it possible to incorporate large embedded memories into a chip. However, it also complicates the test process, since usually the embedded memories cannot be controlled from the external environment. Proposed design doesn't need controls from outside environment, because it integrates into memory. In general, there are a variety of memory modules in SOC, and it is not possible to test all of them with a single algorithm. Thus, the proposed scheme supports the various memory testing process. Moreover, it is able to At-Speed test in a memory module. consequently, the proposed is more efficient in terms of test cost and test data to be applied.

Most of embedded systems have been developed practically based on the PC platform equipped with Intel x86 CPU since it is able to reduce the total time for product development and improve the reliability of product by making use of a variety of solutions developed for a long time in the PC environment. Also, embedded systems based on PC-platform mainly use a high-capacity hard disk as data storage device for applications intending to store multimedia data. Recently, while the capacity of hard disk is increasing rapidly, the start-up ready time of hard disk is growing longer more than 30 seconds. The lengthened start-up ready time may delay the booting time of embedded system seriously, weighting users down with inconvenience. This paper proposes the refined system architecture and the dynamic IDE device probing method for fast booting of linux kernel in the embedded system based on PC platform with high-capacity hard disks, and the performance of proposed methods is evaluated and presented.

In order to improve the vertical position accuracy, the advantages of GPS and barometric altimeter are combined and used, but in order to fuse the two sensors, the geoid altitude must be compensated. In this paper, we proposed a technique that can calculate geoid altitude in real time even in low-cost embedded systems applied to drones or autonomous vehicles. Since the reference EGM08 is determined by a polynomial of the 2160th order, real-time calculation is impossible in the embedded system. Therefore, by introducing a linear interpolation technique, the amount of calculation was increased, and the storage space was saved by 75% by using the integer geoid height as a grid point. The accuracy of the proposed technique was evaluated through simulation, and it was confirmed that the accuracy of the maximum error is -1.215 m even in the region where the geoid change is rapid.

Flash memory has the advantages of nonvolatile, low power consumption, light weight, and high endurance. This enables the flash memory to be utilized as a storage of mobile computing device such as PMP(Portable Multimedia Player). Potable device with a mass flash memory can store various multimedia data such as video, audio, or image. Typical index systems for mobile computer are inefficient to search a form of text like lyric or title. In this paper, we propose a new text index system, named EMTEX(Embedded Text Index). EMTEX has the following salient features. First, it uses a compression algorithm for embedded system. Second, if a new insert or delete operation is executed on the base table. EMTEX updates the text index immediately. Third, EMTEX considers the characteristics of flash memory to design insert, delete, and rebuild operations on the text index. Finally, EMTEX is executed as an upper layer of DBMS. Therefore, it is independent of the underlying DBMS. We evaluate the performance of EMTEX. The Experiment results show that EMTEX can outperform th conventional index systems such as Oracle Text and FT3.

Main Memory storage system can increase the performance of the system by assigning enough slack time to real-time transactions. Due to its high response time of main memory devices, main memory resident data management systems have been used for location management of personal mobile clients to cope with urgent location related operations. In this paper we have developed a multi-threaded main memory storage system as a core component of real-time retrieval system to handle a huge amount of readers and writers of main memory resident data. The storage system is implemented as an embedded component which is working with the help of a disk resident database system. It uses multi-threaded executions and utilizes latches for its concurrency control rather than complex locking method. It only saves most recent data on main memory and data synchronization is done only when disk resident database asks for update transactions. The system controls the number of read threads and update threads to guarantee the minimum requirements of real-time retrievals.
