Nowadays, visual and written data that can be easily accessed over the internet has enabled the development of research in many different fields. However, the availability of data is not sufficient by itself. It is of great ...

NAND flash memories have recently become the main component of large-scale non-volatile storage systems. Recent studies have shown that various error sources degrade the Multi-level cell (MLC) memory performance, including ...

In Multi-Level Cell (MLC) memories, multiple bits of information are packed within the cell to enable higher capacity and lower cost of manufacturing compared to those of the single-level cell flash. However, because of ...

Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems, methods, and computer-readable media to implement an object store with removable storage media. In a particular embodiment, a method provides identifying first data for ...

With the generation of diverse data growing at exponential rates, investigating better digital storage media is inevitable. Currently, one solution is the utilization of solid-state based memory devices, which offer several ...

In this paper, we present a method to generate map sketches for strategy games using a state of the art many-objective evolutionary algorithm, namely NSGAIII. The map sketch generator proposed in this study outputs a three ...

This paper proposes using the state of the art 2D facial landmark localization method, Supervised Descent Method (SDM), for facial landmark localization in 3D depth images. The proposed method was evaluated on frontal faces ...

Methods and apparatus associated with storing data in high or low energy zones are described. Example apparatus include a data storage system (DSS) that protects a message using an erasure code (EC). A location in the DSS ...

Methods and apparatus associated with data cold storage are described. Example apparatus include an array of data storage devices arranged in rows and columns. Columns of the array are orthogonal to rows. A row has an ...

Example apparatus and methods combine erasure coding with data deduplication to simultaneously reduce the overall redundancy in data while increasing the redundancy of unique data. In one embodiment, an efficient ...
