This paper analyzes the host cache effectiveness in full virtualization, particularly associated with journaling of guests. We observe that the journal access of guests degrades cache performance significantly due to the write-once access pattern and the frequent sync operations. To remedy this problem, we design and implement a novel caching policy, called PDC (Pollution Defensive Caching), that detects the journal accesses and prevents them from entering the host cache. The proposed PDC is implemented in QEMU-KVM 2.1 on Linux 4.14 and provides 3-32% performance improvement for various file and I/O benchmarks.

Spark, an in-memory big-data processing framework is popular to use for real-time processing workload. Spark can store all intermediate data in the cluster memory so that Spark can minimize I/O access. However, when the resident memory of workload is larger that the physical memory amount of the cluster, the total performance can drop dramatically. In this paper, we analyse the factors of bottleneck on PageRank Application that needs many memory through experiment, and cluster the Spark with Tachyon File System for using memory to solve the factor of bottleneck and then we improve the performance about 18%.

In this paper, we propose a dynamic load distribution technique at the operating system level in mobile storage systems with a heterogeneous storage pair of a small form-factor and disk and a flash memory, which aims at saving energy consumption as well as enhancing I/O performance. Our proposed technique takes a combinatory approach of file placement and buffer cache management techniques to find how the load can be distributed in an energy and performance-aware way for a heterogeneous mobile storage air of a hard disk and a flash memory. We demonstrate that the proposed technique provides better experimental results with heterogeneous mobile storage devices compared with the existing techniques through extensive simulations.

Parallel file system solves I/O bottleneck to store a file distributedly and read it parallel exchanging messages among computers that is connected multiple computers with high speed networks. However, they do not consider the message characteristics and performances are decreased. Accordingly, the current study proposes the Hybrid Channel model (HCM) as a message-management method, whereby the messages of a parallel file system are classified by a message characteristic between control messages and file data blocks, and the communication channel is divided into a message channel and data channel. The message channel then transfers the control messages through TCP/IP with reliability, while the data channel that is implemented by Virtual Interface Architecture (VIA) transfers the file data blocks at high speed. In tests, the proposed parallel file system that is implemented by HCM exhibited a considerably improved performance.

There are many technically difficult issues in searching multimedia data such as image, video and audio because they are massive and more complex than simple text-based data. As a method of searching multimedia data, a similarity retrieval has been studied to retrieve automatically basic features of multimedia data and to make a search among data with retrieved features because exact match is not adaptable to a matrix of features of multimedia. In this paper, data clustering and its indexing are proposed as a speedy similarity-retrieval method of multimedia data. This approach clusters similar images on adjacent disk cylinders and then builds Indexes to access the clusters. To minimize the search cost, the hashing is adapted to index cluster. In addition, to reduce I/O time, the proposed searching takes just one I/O to look up the location of the cluster containing similar object and one sequential file I/O to read in this cluster. The proposed schema solves the problem of multi-dimension by using clustering and its indexing and has higher search efficiency than the content-based image retrieval that uses only clustering or indexing structure.

Wearable computers consisting of various small devices such as smart phones, digital cameras, MP3 players and specialized I/O devices in personal area networks will play an important role in future ubiquitous computing. In this environment, accessing user data is quite complex due to the dynamic and heterogeneous characteristics of the underlying networks. Moreover, since the amount of user data increases rapidly, automatic data backup management is also critical. To overcome these challenges, several studies have been conducted including our previously proposed file service system, PosCFS, which could be adapted to the requirements with a virtualization technique allowing per-user global namespace for managing and accessing data stored on physical storage spaces detected in PAN. In this paper, we present a smart file service framework, PosCFS+ which is an improved and extended version of our previous work. Performance improvement is made possible by redesigning the metadata management scheme based on database and keywords rather than ontology. In addition, the automatic data replication management is newly designed based on the OSD protocol.

CATIA V5 is one of the most preferred softwares in product design for domestic and industrial use. But with the development of the IT industry, design data by CATIA V5 can easily be hacked and stolen especially via the internet and through assistance storage medium. The design data could be protected through executive, physical and technical security system. The best way to maintain confidentiality of data from unauthorized access is to have a cryptosystem of the technical security. In this paper, a cryptosystem for the protection of design data was being proposed. The memory contains the file information made by the New and Open function of CATIA V5. No error can be expected even if the file changed before of after the application of Save and Open function, A cryptosystem was constructed in CATIA V5 by inserting crypto algorithm before and after the I/O process. The encryption/decryption algorithm of each function was based on the complex cipher, which applied permutation cipher and transpose cipher. The file security system was programmed in CAA V5 and Visual C++.

Using SCM in storage systems introduce new potentials for improving I/O performance and reliability. In this paper, we study the use of SCM as a buffer cache that guarantees transactional unit writes. Our proposed method can improve storage system reliability and performance at the same time and can recover the storage system immediately upon a system crash. The Proposed method is based on the LINUX JBD(Journaling Block Device), thus reliability is equivalent to JBD. In our experiments, the file system that adopts our method shows better I/O performance even while guaranteeing high reliability and shows fast file system recovery time (about 0.2 seconds).

Ransomware was first created in 1999, but its existence become widely known in Korean by 2015. As information and communication technology have developed, the storage capacity of computer has enlarged, it accordingly is getting more important to effectively manage these information, rather than the information itself. In such situation, the ransomware break into other people's computer and encrypt an files without a user's permission. So, it adversely affect the user. In this paper, we monitor an access of a specific process to the file. And on the basis of this monitoring information, we detect whether the abnormal approach happened. Through the detection result, we block the permission about access to the file for a specific process. Using this method, we propose a blocking technique for the ransomeware's abnormal approach and encryption to the files.
