Abstract:

The traditional Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud platform tends to realize high data availability by introducing dedicated storage devices. However, this heterogeneous architecture has high maintenance cost and might reduce the performance of virtual machines. In homogeneous IaaS cloud platform, servers in the platform would uniformly provide computing resources and storage resources, which effectively solve the above problems, although corresponding mechanisms need to be introduced to improve data availability. Efficient storage resource availability management is one of the key methods to improve data availability. As mechanical hard disk is the main way to realize data storage in IaaS cloud platform at present, timely and accurate prediction of mechanical hard disk failure and active data backup and migration before mechanical hard disk failure would effectively improve the data availability of IaaS cloud platform. In this paper, we propose an improved algorithm for early warning of mechanical hard disk failures. We first use the Relief feature selection algorithm to perform parameter selection. Then, we use the zero-sum game idea of Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) to generate fewer category samples to achieve a balance of sample data. Finally, an improved Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model called Convolution-LSTM (C-LSTM) is used to complete accurate detection of hard disk failures and achieve fault warning. We evaluate several models using precision, recall, and Area Under Curve (AUC) value, and extensive experiments show that our proposed algorithm outperforms other algorithms for mechanical hard disk warning.

Abstract:

The problem of scheduling disk requests in a personal hard real-time read/write file system is examined. It is shown that any optimal algorithm for a simplified disk scheduling can be forced to thrash very badly. To avoid thrashing, we propose a fixed-period scan (FSCAN), approach for disk scheduling in our file system. The idea is to use the CSCAN policy to pick up the data blocks requested by a periodic preemptive schedule. The approach trades disk block size and memory buffer size for higher performance. We derive the worst case seek and rotational overhead for the FSCAN algorithm, and we show that the worst-case seek overhead can be measured empirically for a large class of seek functions. Using this approach and utilizing measured seek functions from real disk drives, we show that these policies can transfer data at 40-70% of the maximum transfer rate of modern disk drives, depending on the file system parameters. A configuration program is developed to automatically test and configure the FSCAN algorithm for modern hard disks. The design, implementation and testing of this program are described.

Abstract:

碩士<br>中原大學<br>工業與系統工程研究所<br>100<br>Development of reliability technique which can identify failure precursors in early product life time can help product designer to obtain early failure information for design improvement and also can help customers to prevent impact from unexpected catastrophic failure. In this study, hard disk drives (HDD) was selected for reliability analysis. The study applies Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) technique, using failure precursor as an early indication of true product failure. The techniques of Failure Modes, Mechanisms and Effects Analysis (FMMEA), field test and Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) for HDD, are used to confirm early abnormal signs before occurrence of true failure. Quantitative indicators are established for the identified failure precursors. The random variable of time-to-failure-precursor of HDD is validated having properties of Weibull distribution. Remaining Useful Life (RUL) is predicted based on conditional reliability of the TTF of precursor given the result of PHM monitoring. The Residual MTTF is also developed to represent mean time of remaining useful life. The prognostics process developed in this study combined with the methods developed for remaining useful life prediction will achieve the purpose of product health management for customer protection.

Abstract:

This chapter combines disruptive innovation strategy (DIS) theory with the system dynamics (SD) modeling method. It presents a simulation model of the hard-disk (HD) maker population overshoot and collapse dynamics, showing that DIS can crucially affect the dynamics of the IT industry. Data from the HD maker industry help calibrate the parameters of the SD model and replicate the HD makers’ overshoot and collapse dynamics, which DIS allegedly caused from 1973 through 1993. SD model analysis entails articulating exactly how the structure of feedback relations among variables in a system determines its performance through time. The HD maker population model analysis shows that, over five distinct time phases, four different feedback loops might have been most prominent in generating the HD maker population dynamics. The chapter shows the benefits of using SD modeling software, such as iThink®, and SD model analysis software, such as Digest®. The latter helps detect exactly how changes in loop polarity and prominence determine system performance through time. Strategic scenarios computed with the model also show the relevance of using SD for information system management and research in areas where dynamic complexity rules.

Abstract:

The chapter is a summary of IP surveillance systems: basic functions, the advantages of network video, customizing surveillance applications, and possible legal concerns. The most important step one can take before installing IP surveillance system is to define goals and requirements. Once these are determined, the video system can be set up. The required goals to be determined are the following: definition of the video surveillance system needs (installation plan, area of coverage, camera positioning, illumination conditions determination, camera cabling, the recording server positioning), network camera and/or video encoder selection (image quality, lens selection, network camera selection, Power over Ethernet [PoE], video motion detection, audio, accessories selection, testing), hardware (switches, additional light sources, power supplies, additional server for video management software, hard drives), software (software package selection, licenses, image quality and frame rate requirements, IP address range calculation, hard disk usage calculation, camera configuration, video motion detection settings, user access definition), and maintenance.

Abstract:

For a long time, hard disks were the only technology that could store enough information to hold a database and offered random access at the same time. Therefore, conventional database management systems were tuned to take this technology to the maximum. But in recent years, main memories have become cheaper and grown to a point that for some fields of application it allows one to keep the whole information of a database in main memory and therefore speed up operation. This article focuses on the differences in conventional databases that affect both performance and internal structure of a database management system.

Abstract In this chapter we examine information systems development. We dis cuss information systems development in the period from the early 1970s when there was no formal methodology to develop information systems. We look at the motivation to develop a formal approach to system development, known as the system development life cycle, which is described below. This ‘waterfall model’ consists of phases, procedures, rules, techniques, documentation, and so on. This particular approach had a number of weaknesses and these were addressed in the many approaches and methodologies that were specified and practised in the 1980s.

Abstract:

This chapter throws light on the impact of gratification factors in visual food communication on consumer decision making. This research has been done with special reference to ‘South Indian Cuisine'. It will be evident that if an eatery promotes and presents these regional foods with a specific strategy, it will attract more consumers than it had expected. People basically relate well to the pictures of food, specifically because in countries like India, emotion is one majorly used appeal by brands to lure their customers. Hence, even in food industry, a person before ordering a particular dish relates to its pictures in the menu or anywhere else because there are certain gratification factors in visual communication of food that connects the consumer with the reason as to why they want to eat a particular dish. The aim of this research is to understand that which particular gratification factor will highly influence which particular south-Indian food item.

<em>Abstract.-</em>Numerous community lakes throughout Nebraska were suffering from water quality degradation. Historically, these lakes were focal points within the community park system; however, cultural and natural eutrophication had reduced water clarity and diminished esthetic and recreational benefits. The Community Lakes Enhancement and Restoration (CLEAR) program was created in 2000 to combine the resources and technical expertise of the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality, and the University of Nebraska- Lincoln in fisheries, water quality and education. With funding totaling $4.97 million from the Nebraska Environmental Trust Fund, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and local community partners, CLEAR assisted 26 communities improve their park lakes. Pre- and postproject water quality measurements showed improvements in total phosphorus (75% average decline), total nitrogen (39% average decline), turbidity (85% average decline), and chlorophyll a (86% average decline), yielding improvements in water clarity (350% average increase), as measured by Secchi disk. Postproject electrofishing samples and angler surveys demonstrated the positive impact of CLEAR program improvements on the quality of fishing opportunities and a resultant increase in angler use.

Abstract:

Prognostics and health management of computer hard disk drives is beneficial from two different angles: it can help computer users plan for timely replacement of HDDs before they catastrophically fail and cause serious data loss; it can also help product recover facilities reuse hard disks recovered from the end-of-life computers for building refurbished computers. This paper presents a HDD health assessment method using Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (SMART) attributes. It also presents the state-of-the art results in monitoring the condition of hard disks and offers future directions for distributed hard disk monitoring.

Abstract:

Heat transfer issue has become a challenging task in designing a high power density data center. As power consumption (Watts) of the data center continues to increase, effective thermal management of computing clusters, servers and data storage systems in data center will become more and more demanding. Hard disk drive (HDD) as a key power consumption device in high-end data storage system, its heat transfer issue has attracted more research attentions due to its complexity in nature of enclosure air flow driven by spinning disks. Among various thermal management solutions, one promising approach is to enclose helium rather than air in the hermetically-sealed hard disk drive as to reduce windage loss and flow disturbance. This paper investigates the thermal performances of disk drives where their enclosures have been filled up with helium and various helium-air gas mixtures using FEM simulations and experimental validations. Windage loss and heat convection of the disk drives being filled up with helium or helium-air mixtures are compared and analysed. The results show that helium-filled HDD provides heat transfer enhancement capability than the air-filled HDD by achieving up to 41% reduction of average temperature rise. Furthermore, 40% reduction of magnetic transducer position error signals (PES) was experimentally observed in helium filled HDD. Enhancing heat transfer and better PES quality via helium gas will greatly improve HDD read/write reliability and increase track density capability for data storage systems in data center.

Abstract:

In the 21st century, business engagements are becoming increasingly global, and global teams are now an established form of organising work in multinational organisations. As a result, managing cultural diver-sity within a global team has become an essential part of ensuring motivation, creativity, innovation and efficiency in today’s business world.Global teams are typically composed of a diversity of experiences, frames of references, competencies, information and, not least, cultural backgrounds. As such, they hold a unique potential for delivering high performance in terms of innovative and creative approaches to global management tasks; however, in-stead of focusing on the potentials of cultural diversity, practitioners and studies of global teams tend to approach cultural diversity as a barrier to team success. This study explores some of the barriers that cultural diversity poses but also discusses its potential to leverage high performance in a global context.Our study highlights the importance of how team leaders and team members perceive ‘culture’ as both a concept and a social practice. We take issue with a notion of culture as a relatively fixed and homogeneous set of values, norms and attitudes shared by people of national communities; it is such a notion of culture that tends to underlie understandings that highlight the irreconcilability of cultural differences.Applying a more dynamic and context-dependent approach to culture as a meaning system that people negotiate and use to interpret the world, this study explores how global leadership teams can best reap the benefits of cultural diversity in relation to specific challenging areas of intercultural team work, such as leadership style, decision making, relationship building, strategy process, and communication styles. Based on a close textual interpretation of 31 semi-structured interviews with members of global leader-ship teams in eight Danish-owned global companies, our study identified different discourses and per-ceptions of culture and cultural diversity. For leaders of the global leadership teams (Danish/European) and other European team members, three understandings of cultural diversity in their global teams were prominent:1)Cultural diversity was not an issue2)Cultural diversity was acknowledged as mainly a liability. Diversities were expressed through adifference in national cultures and could typically be subsumed under a relatively fixed numberof invariable and distinct characteristics.3)Cultural diversity was an asset and expressions of culture had to be observed in the situationand could not simply be derived from prior understandings of cultural differences.A clear result of our study was that those leaders of global teams who drew on discourses of the Asian ‘Other’ adherred to the first two understandings of cultural diversity and preferred leadership styles that were either patriarchal or self-defined as ‘Scandinavian’. Whereas those leaders who drew on discourses of culture as dynamic and negotiated social practices adhered to the third understanding of cultural di-versity and preferred a differentiated and analytical approach to leading their teams.We also focused on the perceptions of team members with a background in the country in which the global teams were co-located. These ‘local’ team members expressed a nuanced and multifaceted perspective on their own cultural background, the national culture of the company, and their own position within the team, which enabled them to easily navigate between essentialist perceptions of culture while maintain-ing a critical stance on the existing cultural hegemonies. They recognised the value of their local knowledge and language proficiency, but, for those local members in teams with a negative or essentialist view of cultural diversity, it was difficult to obtain recognition of their cultural styles and specific, non-local competences. 3Our study suggeststhat the way global team members perceive culture, based on dominant societal dis-courses of culture, significantly affects the understandings of roles and positions in global leadership teams. We found that discourses on culture were used to explain differences and similarities between team members, which profoundly affected the social practicesand dynamics of the global team. We con-clude that only global teams with team leaders who are highly aware of the multiple perspectives at play in different contexts within the team hold the capacity to be alert to cultural diversity and to demonstrate agility in leveraging differences and similarities into inclusive and dynamic team practices.
