▼ Supercomputing application simulations on hundreds of thousands of cores produce vast amounts of data that need to be analyzed on smaller-scale clusters to glean insights. The process is referred to as an end-to-end workflow. Extant workflow systems are stymied by the storage wall, resulting from both the disk-based parallel
file system (PFS) failing to keep pace with the compute and memory subsystems as well as the inefficiencies in end-to-end workflow processing. In the post-petaflop era, supercomputers are provisioned with flash devices, as an intermediary between compute nodes and the PFS, enabling novel paradigms not just for expediting I/O, but also for the in-situ analysis of the simulation output data on the flash device. An array of such active flash elements allows us to fundamentally rethink the way data analysis workflows interact with storage systems. By blending the flash storage array and data analysis together in a seamless fashion, we create an analysis workflow-aware storage
system, AnalyzeThis. Our guiding principle is that analysis-awareness be deeply ingrained in each and every layer of the storage system—active flash fabric, analysis object abstraction layer, scheduling layer within the storage, and an easy-to-use
file system interface—thereby elevating data analyses as first-class citizens. Together, these concepts transform AnalyzeThis into a potent analytics-aware appliance.

▼ Sensitive information such as firewall logs or data from intrusion detection systems, has to be stored for long periods of time for legal reasons or for later forensic analysis. With the growth of the sources generating this type of data within a company, it is imperative to find a solution that meets the requirements of scalability, security, availability, performance and low maintenance while keeping the costs under control. Following this need, this project aims to make an analysis of
several distributed
file systems in order to find a solution that meets both the performance and security requirements of an internal application of Portugal Telecom. To validate the solution, the project includes the design of a prototype that aims to simulate the execution environment of that
application.

A FIREWALL MODEL OF FILE SYSTEM SECURITY.

▼ File system security is fundamental to the security of UNIX and Linux systems since in these systems almost everything is in the form of a
file. To protect the
system files and other sensitive user files from unauthorized accesses, certain security schemes are chosen and used by different organizations in their computer systems. A
file system security model provides a formal description of a protection
system. Each security model is associated with specified security policies which focus on one or more of the security principles: confidentiality, integrity and availability. The security policy is not only about “who” can access an object, but also about “how” a
subject can access an object. To enforce the security policies, each access request is checked against the specified policies to decide whether it is allowed or rejected.
The current protection schemes in UNIX/Linux systems focus on the access control. Besides the basic access control scheme of the
system itself, which includes permission bits, setuid and seteuid mechanism and the root, there are other protection models, such as Capabilities, Domain Type Enforcement (DTE) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), supported and used in certain organizations. These models protect the confidentiality of the data directly. The integrity of the data is protected indirectly by only allowing trusted users to operate on the objects. The access control decisions of these models depend on either the identity of the user or the attributes of the process the user can execute, and the attributes of the objects. Adoption of these sophisticated models has been slow; this is likely due to the enormous complexity of specifying controls over a large
file system and the need for
system administrators to learn a new paradigm for
file protection.
We propose a new security model:
file system firewall. It is an adoption of the familiar network firewall protection model, used to control the data that flows between networked computers, toward
file system protection. This model can support decisions of access control based on any
system generated attributes about the access requests, e.g., time of day. The access control decisions are not on one entity, such as the account in traditional discretionary access control or the domain name in DTE. In
file system firewall, the access decisions are made upon situations on multiple entities. A situation is programmable with predicates on the attributes of
subject, object and the
system.
File system firewall specifies the appropriate actions on these situations. We implemented the prototype of
file system firewall on SUSE Linux. Preliminary results of performance tests on the prototype indicate that the runtime overhead is acceptable. We compared
file system firewall with TE in SELinux to show that firewall model can accommodate many other access control models. Finally, we show the ease of use of firewall model. When firewall
system is restricted to specified part of the
system, all the other resources are not…

▼ Researchers belonging to multiple institutions forming a collaborative environment are increasingly working with large files and datasets, which they often need to share for their collaboration. There is no provision in the current generation systems to transfer large data among collaborators in multiple institutions, without having to provision user credentials at some common location that all collaborators can use. “Dropoff” is a
system for sharing large data combining several transport, storage and security methods to allow researchers to share large files quickly and easily for a specified period in a trusted environment. Dropoff is an enhanced implementation of a project called “Filesender” [5]. Dropoff provides services to upload a large
file from the user's machine and send a download URL link for the
file to recipients through email. It is enhanced to provide more security, administration services and additional upload/download features that are necessary and useful in a shared collaborative environment. The current project replaces the SimpleSAML authentication mechanism with a Shibboleth and X.509 certificate based authentication mechanism for authenticating users. It secures the download of a
file by forcing the recipients to authenticate and thus making sure that only the intended recipient downloads a
file. It allows the user to upload and share a
file from the user's data repository and download it to the data repository if one exists for that particular user. It also provides an implementation to have distributed administrator users such that the administrator can administer files belonging to the same organizational domain as the administrator.

▼ Diversas aplicações executadas em ambientes de cluster necessitam de uma área de armazenamento permanente com alta capacidade e que forneça uma visão homogênea dos dados entre todos os nós. Esta área compartilhada é comumente implementada através de um sistema de arquivos distribuído, permitindo o acesso através da abstração mais comum para gerenciamento de dados. A disparidade entre poder de processamento e desempenho de dispositivos de armazenamento atuais, no entanto, torna tais sistemas um ponto crítico ao desempenho de aplicações paralelas que lidam com grandes volumes de dados. Ambientes de cluster podem apresentar execução concorrente de aplicações em conjuntos independentes de máquinas. Desta forma, uma grande quantidade de clientes com características distintas farão acessos ao sistema de arquivos compartilhado. Em tais casos, o dimensionamento do sistema de armazenamento distribuído nem sempre poderá prover o desempenho necessário à execução das aplicações com os recursos inicialmente a ele destinados. O presente trabalho propõe uma estratégia de reconfiguração dinâmica para o sistema de arquivos dNFSp. Esta estratégia leva em consideração o comportamento temporal presente em aplicações paralelas para inserir servidores de dados exclusivos a aplicações com alta demanda de I/O. Com a utilização de servidores exclusivos, torna-se possível isolar aplicações com comportamentos que causam grande perda de desempenho no sistema como um todo. Foi desenvolvida uma ferramenta de monitoramento do desempenho junto aos servidores do dNFSp, de forma a solicitar novos servidores apenas quando a interação das fases de I/O das aplicações em execução interferirem no desempenho do sistema. Esses novos servidores são solicitados para um sistema escalonador de recursos para cluster, de forma a utilizar nós livres para o armazenamento de dados. Os resultados mostram que a estratégia proposta é capaz de detectar a saturação do sistema de armazenamento e iniciar os servidores exclusivos, levando a um ganho de desempenho para as aplicações em execução. A reconfiguração dinâmica também mostrou-se capaz de evitar baixos desempenhos causados pela interação dos períodos de inatividade de aplicações temporais e pela utilização de diversos processos de I/O em um único nó.
Several applications executed in cluster environments need a shared storage area with high capacity and a homogeneous view of the stored data to all processing nodes. This area is commonly implemented as a distributed file system, allowing the access to data through the well-known file abstraction. The great gap in performance of processors and storage devices, on the other hand, makes such system a critical point to the performance of parallel applications. A common trait of large cluster environments is the concurrent execution of applications. In this scenario, many clients with distinct behaviors will compete to access the shared storage system. The number of I/O resources originally dedicated to this shared storage may provide unsatisfactory performance to the…

▼ Dissertação de Mestrado em Engenharia Informática
The task of implementing correct software is not trivial; mainly when facing the need for supporting concurrency. To overcome this difficulty, several researchers proposed the technique of providing the well known database transactional models as an abstraction for existing programming languages, allowing a software programmer to define groups of computations as transactions and benefit from the expectable semantics of the underlying transactional model. Prototypes for this programming model are nowadays made available by many research teams but are still far from perfection due to a considerable number of operational restrictions. Mostly, these restrictions derive from the limitations on the use of input-output functions inside a transaction. These functions are frequently irreversible which disables their compatibility with a transactional engine due to its impossibility to undo their effects in the event of aborting a transaction.
However, there is a group of input-output operations that are potentially reversible and that can produce a valuable tool when provided within the transactional programming model explained above: the file system operations. A programming model that would involve in a transaction not only a set of memory operations but also a set of file operations, would allow the software programmer to define algorithms in a much flexible and simple way, reaching greater stability and consistency in each application.
In this document we purpose to specify and allow the use of this type of operations inside a transactional programming model, as well as studying the advantages and disadvantages of this approach.

▼ Recently, with the popularity and convenience features of Internet, Internet has become one of the attacker profitable way to enter the local area network. Most organizations, companies and government agencies will purchase the firewall, intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems or other information security
system to prevent and defense their network.
With the increasing of the security infrastructure and
system, these problems can have a significant impact on organizations. For example, All kinds of Raw Log Messages in different formats and big data storage are important issues. The traditional data analysis architecture by means of a powerful server has serious performance issues when processing big data.
This study proposes a cloud computing architecture by deploy the settings of storage space, number of namenode and datanode, CPU, memory and network bandwidth to make cloud computing
system more efficacy. This study proposes an open source cloud computing platform solution for storing and analyzing big data. Clustered and distributed storage provided by the open source cloud platform, Hadoop, improves the time and storage issue faced in traditional centralized architecture. To improve the bottleneck of the read/write access time during big data processing, in-memory processing technology, Spark, is adopted to reduce the number of disk accesses. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed cloud platform provides a great performance improvement.

▼ The continuing technological progress resulted in a dramatic growth in aggregate computational performance of the largest supercomputing systems. Unfortunately, these advances did not translate to the required extent into accompanying I/O systems and little more in terms of architecture or effective access latency. New classes of algorithms developed for massively parallel applications, that gracefully handle the challenges of asynchrony, heavily multi-threaded distributed codes, and message-driven computation, must be matched by similar advances in I/O methods and algorithms to produce a well performing and balanced supercomputing system. This dissertation proposes PXFS, a storage model for persistent objects inspired by the ParalleX model of execution that addresses many of these challenges. The PXFS model is designed to be asynchronous in nature to comply with ParalleX model and proposes an active TupleSpace concept to hold all kinds of metadata/meta-object for either storage objects or runtime objects. The new active TupleSpace can also register ParalleX actions to be triggered under certain tuple operations. An first implementation of PXFS utilizing a well-known Orange parallel file system as its back-end via asynchronous I/O layer and the implementation of TupleSpace component in HPX, the implementation of ParalleX. These details are also described along with the preliminary performance data. A house-made micro benchmark is developed to measure the disk I/O throughput of the PXFS asynchronous interface. The results show perfect scalability and 3x to 20x times speedup of I/O throughput performance comparing to OrangeFS synchronous user interface. Use cases of TupleSpace components are discussed for real-world applications including micro check-pointing. By utilizing TupleSpace in HPX applications for I/O, global barrier can be replaced with fine-grained parallelism to overlap more computation with communication and greatly boost the performance and efficiency. Also the dissertation showcases the distributed directory service in Orange file system which process directory entries in parallel and effectively improves the directory metada operations.

▼ In this dissertation, we present novel approaches for integrating non-volatile memory devices into storage hierarchy of a computer
system. There are several types of non- volatile memory devices, such as flash memory, Phase Change Memory (PCM), Spin- transfer torque memory (STT-RAM). These devices have many appealing features for applications; however, they also offer several challenges. This dissertation is focused on how to efficiently integrate these non-volatile memories into existing memory and disk storage systems. This work is composed of two major parts.
The first part investigates a main-memory
system employing Phase Change Memory instead of traditional DRAM. Compared to DRAM, PCM has higher density and no static power consumption, which are very important factors for building large capacity memory systems. However, PCM has higher write latency and power consumption compared to read operations. Moreover, PCM has limited write endurance. To efficiently integrate PCM into a memory
system, we have to solve the challenges brought by its expensive write operations. We propose new replacement policies and cache organizations for the last-level CPU cache, which can effectively reduce the write traffic to the PCM main memory. We evaluated our design with multiple workloads and configurations. The results show that the proposed approaches improve the lifetime and energy consumption of PCM significantly.
The second part of the dissertation considers the design of a data/disk storage using non-volatile memories, e.g. flash memory, PCM and nonvolatile DIMMs. We consider multiple design options for utilizing the nonvolatile memories in the storage hierarchy. First, we consider a
system that employs nonvolatile memories such as PCM or nonvolatile DIMMs on memory bus along with flash-based SSDs. We propose a hybrid
file system, NVMFS, that manages both these devices. NVMFS exploits the nonvolatile memory to improve the characteristics of the write workload at the SSD. We satisfy most small random write requests on the fast nonvolatile DIMM and only do large and optimized writes on SSD. We also group data of similar update patterns together before writing to flash-SSD; as a result, we can effectively reduce the garbage collection overhead. We implemented a prototype of NVMFS in Linux and evaluated its performance through multiple benchmarks.
Secondly, we consider the problem of using flash memory as a cache for a disk drive based storage
system. Since SSDs are expensive, a few SSDs are designed to serve as a cache for a large number of disk drives. SSD cache space can be used for both read and write requests. In our design, we managed multiple flash-SSD devices directly at the cache layer without the help of RAID software. To ensure data reliability and cache space efficiency, we only duplicated dirty data on flash- SSDs. We also balanced the write endurance of different flash-SSDs. As a result, no single SSD will fail much earlier than the others.
Thirdly, when using PCM-like devices only as data storage, it?s possible…

▼ Bluetooth is a short-range communication
system that was developed with the intent of replacing cables that link portable and fixed electronic devices. Given its widespread adoption, especially in mobile devices, new uses are possible today. Although there are many proprietary solutions in the market for open source operating systems, they are based on unicast architecture. The problem faced is that there are not Bluetooth broadcasting systems for open source operating systems. The project addresses this issue, in that, it attempts to provide an open source, cost-effective solution to broadcast messages on the go using short-range wireless technology
This project aims to create an open source Bluetooth broadcasting
system which detects Bluetooth enabled devices like laptops/phones/smart devices and sends information on the go and is developed using Bluez open source which is a Bluetooth stack on a Linux operating
system.
With devices continuously evolving and the Bluetooth technology being improved, it is possible that Bluetooth broadcasting can be used for delivering a wider range of information in the near future at higher speeds than now.

▼ Distributed
file system is one of the basic architecture in the Big Data network
system. In this paper, new distributed data storage architecture is proposed, achieving a major breakthrough in the Windows 7 operating
system. The kernel-mode driver is used to establish the network working platform.
The research can be divided into three parts: client, master and storage. For the client, users can operate the
system with the designed interface, which uses the idea of the event I/O to communicate with a kernel driver. The master is responsible for managing storages, and receiving commands from the client. A series of data structures are also established to record the clientâs
file logical path. For the storage part, consistency commands make all the remote computers transformed into logical disks, which are provided to the client.
In order to have a more effective communication, a new network protocol is defined. The commands from the protocol are for controlling the kernel driver. Therefore, the proposed distributed data storage architecture can be constructed successfully.
Two experiments are made based on the distributed data storage architecture. According to the upload experiment, the average upload speed is about 8.057 MB per second. On the other hand, the average speed for downloading is about 8.338 MB per second.

▼ The fast growing bandwidth has made the development of cloud storage. More and more resource has put in cloud storage. In this thesis, we proposed a new cloud storage that consists of a single main server and multiple data servers. The main server controls
system-wide activities such as data server management. It also periodically communicates with each data server and collects its state. Data servers store data on local disks as Windows files. In order to response to the large number of data access, Selection of the server which is necessary to offer equalized performance. In this paper, we propose a server selection algorithm using different parameters to get the performance metrics which enables us to balance multi-resource from server-side.
We design new cloud storage and implement the algorithm. According to upload experiment, the difference between the maximum and the minimum free space when using our algorithm is less than 5GB. But using the random mode, the free space difference is increased as time, and the maximum is 30GB. In the mixed experiment, we added the download mode, and our algorithm is fewer than 10GB. The result of the random mode approximated to the first experiment. Finally, our algorithm obtains 10% and 3% speedup in upload throughput by upload experiment and mixed experiment, 10% speedup in download throughput by mixed experiment.

▼ Power consumption by high-performance systems is
becoming an increasing concern for system designers and software
writers a like. Disk subsystem is known to be a major contributor
to the overall power budget of high-performance systems. Most
scientific applications today rely heavily on disk I/O for
out-of-core computations, checkpointing, and data visualization. To
reduce excess energy consumption on disk system, prior studies
proposed several hardware or OS-based disk power management
schemes. While such schemes have been known to be effective in
certain cases, they might miss opportunities for better energy
savings due to their reactive nature. While compiler based schemes
can make more accurate decisions on a given application by
extracting disk access patterns statically, the lack of runtime
information on the status of shared disks may lead to wrong
decisions when multiple applications exercise the same set of disks
concurrently. Therefore, quantitative comparison of reactive,
compiler-based, and hybrid schemes is very important. This
dissertation makes four major contributions towards more effective
disk power management for scientific applications that use
disk-resident data frequently (i.e., so called I/O-intensive
applications). First, it shows that, while conventional hardware
based disk power management scheme is useful in certain cases,
compiler-driven approach can be more effective for array-based
scientific applications executing on parallel architectures.
Second, it shows that restructuring the application code increases
length of disk idle periods, thereby leading to better exploitation
of available power-saving capabilities. Third, it proposes a
compiler-directed energy-aware prefetching scheme for scientific
applications that process disk-resident data sets. Finally, it
proposes a runtime system support for software-based disk power
management scheme. The proposed runtime system is implemented
within PVFS2, a parallel file system. We conclude by a brief
discussion of ongoing and future work on I/O.

▼ With the dramatic advances in electronic device industry, the availability of high speed non-volatile memory (NVRAM) has introduced a new tier into the storage hierarchy, and holds great promise for reduction in latency, power consumption, and improved performance. Among them, flash-memory has become a popular storage medium to replace hard disk as a permanent storage device and DRAM as a temporary storage device. Yet, despite their fast random I/O performance, the design of a flash-based storage system achieves suboptimal performance or suffers from reduced endurance due to the nature of flash memory, for example, out of place update, asymmetric read-write throughput, and limited write cycles. Lack of application aware design makes flash memory less efficient, and hence cannot meet various performance requirements. To this end, we investigate the roles flash memory plays in different storage applications and their performance and reliability requirements. By examining the behavior of these systems and their consequent data access characteristics, as well as the performance impact, we propose solutions that tradeoff performance, cost, endurance and reliability to achieve high efficiency for flash memory in different storage applications with reduced overhead. We first explore the use of flash memory as a write-through cache in a tiered storage. We demonstrate the individual and cumulative contributions of cache admission policy, cache eviction policy, flash garbage collection policy, and flash device configuration on a flash caching device. We show that workloads on Solid State Caches (SSCs) have significantly greater write pressures than their storage counterparts. we propose HEC, a High Endurance Cache that aims to improve overall device endurance via reduced media writes and erases while increasing or maintaining cache hit rate performance. To further characterize the behavior of flash memory used in different storage applications, we focus on flash as a primary backing storage device in the second part of this dissertation. We explore the drawbacks of a typical log-structured file system on top of a log-structured FTL flash device. We characterize the interactions between multiple levels of independent logs, and describe several practical scenarios which arises in real log-on-log systems. We then propose a log-aware coordination to tune the layout of logs, so that when multiple layers of logs exist in the system we can still achieve high performance with minimum interference among each log. In the third part of this dissertation, we explore the approaches to collapsing logs. While there are several popular ways that utilize the nature of flash memory translation layer to eliminate multiple layers of logs in the entire system, we focus on the benefit we can obtain from a log-less object-based flash aware system. We show from simulation experiments that advanced features could be embedded to improve overall performance for object-based flash system with low overhead through a rich interface.

▼ Understanding user and
system behavior is most vital for designing efficient systems. Most
systems are designed with certain user workload in mind. However, such workloads evolve
over time, or the underlying hardware assumptions change. Further, most modern systems
are not built or deployed in isolation, they interact with other systems whose behavior might
not be exactly understood. Thus in order to understand the performance of a
system, it
must be inspected closely while user workloads are running. Such close inspection must be
done with minimum disturbance to the user workload. Thus tracing or collection of all the
user and
system generated events becomes an important approach in gaining comprehensive
insight in user behavior.
As part of this work, we have three major contributions. We designed and implemented
an in-depth block level I/O tracer, which would collect block level information like sector
number, size of the I/O, actual contents of the I/O, along with certain
file system information
like filename, and offset in the
file, for every I/O request. Next, to minimize the impact of
the tracing to the running workload, we introduce and implement a sampling mechanism
which traces fewer I/O requests. We validate that this sampling preserves certain I/O access
patterns. Finally, as one of the application of our tracer, we use it as a crucial component
of a
system designed to do VM placements according to user workload.

▼ The recovery-driven design of the
file system has been
one of the most challenging fields
over the major trends in
operating systems. This field has assumed considerable importance
in the past decades as the disk sizes have been increasing without
a comparable increase in the disk I/O bandwidth and seek time. The
rapid increase in the storage size is expected to become constant
in the future due to the growing market demand and the continuous
database size increment of many companies and major businesses. Due
to the same reason, the cost of the average
file system checking
time has increased without a significant improvement in the disk
I/O bandwidth and seek time performance. Operating
system bugs,
power outages, and hardware failures which result in a
file system
crash were the main reasons behind the innovation of novel recovery
approaches such as Journaling and soft-updates. Although such
approaches avoided complete
file system checking by checking solely
inconsistencies in
file
system metadata, it become inevitable for
them to check the entire
file system for inconsistencies because of
the previously entioned types of problems. One of the emerging
recovery-driven designs which considers minimizing
file system
checking cost is the Chunkfs files ystem. Chunkfs
file system
introduces an innovative look into the
file system design by
dividing the
file system layout into smaller chunks, each one of
which represents a smaller scale
file system by itself.
In our
work we probed an alternative recovery-driven design which is
considerably inspired by the Chunkfs concepts and follows the same
design guidelines. This recovery-riven design is introduced by
adding a new feature to the
file system which best utilizes the
existing underlying design through considering the block groups as
individual chunks, confining their files and directories spanning
across different block groups by means of special controlled
continuation links. These links provide a fault isolation means by
circumscribing the
checking of the
file system to only these block
groups which appear to be dirty after a crash, a method resulting
in a moderate reduction in
file system checking cost. We also
probed different metrics of metadata sizes, and the probable cost
of files and directories expansion across the different block
groups.

▼ Over the past few years, distributed file systems have been widely used as substantial infrastructures and key components of current large-scale Internet applications. By the nature of storage systems, a lot of existing distributed file systems focus more on the aspect of data availability and fault tolerance. A practical and popular solution to improve the data availability is to create extra data copies. However, a common drawback of this solution is inefficient storage space utilization. This thesis aims to solve the efficient fault tolerance problem in distributed file systems. Our solution is expected to reduce the space cost while maintaining similar or higher data reliability of the whole system. To achieve the fault tolerance on distributed file systems, this thesis compares a certain number of erasure codes, including traditional Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) erasure codes and Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) erasure codes as alternatives. The algorithms to construct applicable erasure codes are presented and illustrated in this thesis. A simulator is developed for the simulation of data availability model with various parameter settings. Erasure codes construction is implemented in experiment. We evaluate the performance of our solutions according to the following performance metrics: encoding and decoding efficiency, storage space overhead and utilization, and data availability. These evaluations are completed through experiments in a practical environment as well as simulation. The experimental results demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed scheme. We have shown that an efficient fault tolerant scheme in distributed file systems can be achieved by applying erasure code technology. Compared to the previous MDS erasure codes such as Reed-Solomon Codes, the family of LDPC erasure codes meets the goal of enabling efficient fault tolerance in distributed file systems with an acceptable trade-off between the extra cost of encoding/decoding time and storage overhead.

▼ Peer-to-peer systems have recently gained a lot of attention in the academic
community especially through the design of KBR (Key-Based Routing) algorithms and DHT (Distributed Hash Table)s. On top of these
constructs were built promising applications such as video streaming applications but also storage infrastructures benefiting from the availability and resilience of such scalable network protocols.
Unfortunately, rare are the storage systems designed to be scalable and fault-tolerant to Byzantine behaviour, conditions required for such systems to be deployed in an environment such as the Internet. Furthermore, although some means of access control are often provided, such
file systems
fail to offer the end-users the flexibility required in order to easily manage the permissions granted to potentially hundreds or thousands of end-users. In addition, as for centralised
file systems which rely on a special user, referred to as root on Unices, distributed
file systems equally require some tasks to operate at the
system level. The decentralised nature of these systems renders impossible the use of a single authoritative entity for performing such tasks since implicitly granting her superprivileges, unacceptable configuration for such decentralised systems.
This thesis addresses both issues by providing the
file system objects a completely decentralised access control and administration scheme enabling users to express access control rules in a flexible way but also to request administrative tasks without the need for a superuser. A prototype has been developed and evaluated, proving feasible the deployment of such a
decentralised
file system in large-scale and untrustworthy environments.

▼ A filesystem's sole purpose is to store data so it
can be easily accessed at a later time. Part of that entails
recovering properly from a system crash. But a difficulty that
modern filesystems face is the advent of write caching in a disk.
The disk will report that a write operation has completed before
the data is actually secure on the magnetic platter. How is a
programmer to respond to this outright lie from the hardware? The
problem goes even further. Journaled filesystems depend on the
order of the write operations they send to the disk. If the real
data is written before the journal, then there is not only no point
in having the journal, but it actually gives a false sense of
security. After a crash, the disk checker will only replay the
journal, never bothering to examine the real data on the disk for
consistency. There is a solution to this problem. It is called
Tagged Command Queuing (TCQ) in the SCSI-2 specification. And it is
optional. Filesystems, Ext3 in particular in this paper, use TCQ
exclusively and have no fallback. We present a fallback solution
that depends on a required feature of the SCSI-2 specification,
Force Unit Access (FUA). Our results showed that write-intensive
workloads display a significant slowdown from the FUA-based
solution. However, the performance impact is still less than that
incurred by using other methods, such as synchronizing the cache
after each journal write.

▼ A large number of personal cloud storage systems have emerged in recent years, such as Dropbox, iCloud, Google Drive etc. A common limitation of these system is that the users have to trust the cloud provider not to be malicious. Now we have a Unity block store, which can solve the problem and provide a secure and durable cloud-based block store. However, the base Unity system does not have the concept of file on top of its block device, thus the concurrent operations to different files can cause false sharing problem. In this thesis, we propose UnityFS, a file system built on top of the base Unity system. We design and implement the file system that maintains a mapping between files and a group of data blocks, such that the whole Unity system can support concurrent file operations to different files from multiple user devices in the personal cloud.

▼ Recent Advancements in Solid State Memories have resulted in packing several Giga Bytes (GB) of memory into tiny postage stamp size Memory Cards. Of late, Secure Digital (SD) cards have become a de-facto standard for all portable handheld devices. They have found growing presence in almost all embedded applications, where huge volumes of data need to be handled and stored.
For the very same reason SD cards are being widely used in space applications also. Using these SD Cards in space applications requires robust radiation hardened SD cards and Highly Reliable Fault Tolerant File Systems to handle them. The present work is focused on developing a Highly Reliable Fault Tolerant SD card based FAT16 File System for space applications.

▼ The Internet age has exponentially increased
the volume of digital media that is being shared and distributed.
Broadband Internet has made technologies such as high quality
streaming video on demand possible. Large scale supercomputers also
consume and create huge quantities of data. This media and data
must be stored, cataloged and retrieved with high-performance.
Researching high-performance storage subsystems to meet the I/O
demands of applications in modern scenarios is
crucial. Advances in microprocessor technology
have given rise to relatively cheap off-the-shelf hardware that may
be put together as personal computers as well as servers. The
servers may be connected together by networking technology to
create farms or clusters of workstations (COW). The evolution of
COWs has significantly reduced the cost of ownership of
high-performance clusters and has allowed users to build fairly
large scale machines based on commodity server
hardware. As COWs have evolved, networking
technologies like InfiniBand and 10 Gigabit Ethernet have also
evolved. These networking technologies not only give lower
end-to-end latencies, but also allow for better messaging
throughput between the nodes. This allows us to connect the
clusters with high-performance interconnects at a relatively lower
cost. With the deployment of low-cost,
high-performance hardware and networking technology, it is
increasingly becoming important to design a storage
system that can
be shared across all the nodes in the cluster. Traditionally, the
different components of the
file system have been stringed together
using network connections. The protocol generally used over the
network is TCP/IP. The TCP/IP protocol stack in general has been
shown to have poor performance especially for high-performance
networks. In this dissertation, we research the
problem of designing high-performance communication subsystems for
network attached storage (NAS) systems. Specifically, we delve into
the issues and potential solutions with designing communication
protocols for high-end single-server and clustered server NAS
systems. Orthogonally, we also investigate how a caching
architecture may potentially enhance the performance of a NAS
system. Finally, we look at the potential performance implications
of using some of these designs in two scenarios; over a long haul
network and when used as a basis for checkpointing parallel
applications.

▼ An understanding of Input/Output data access patterns of applications is useful in several situations. First, gaining an insight into what applications are doing with their data at a semantic level helps in designing efficient storage systems. Second, it helps to create benchmarks that mimic realistic application behavior closely. Third, it enables autonomic systems as the information obtained can be used to adapt the
system in a closed loop.
All these use cases require the ability to extract the application-level semantics of I/O operations. Methods such as modifying application code to associate I/O operations with semantic tags are intrusive. It is well known that network
file system traces are an important source of information that can be obtained non-intrusively and analyzed either online or offline. These traces are a sequence of primitive
file system operations and their parameters. Simple counting, statistical analysis or deterministic search techniques are inadequate for discovering application-level semantics in the general case, because of the inherent variation and noise in realistic traces.
In this paper, we describe a trace analysis methodology based on Profile Hidden Markov Models. We show that the methodology has powerful discriminatory capabilities that enables it to recognize applications based on the patterns in the traces, and to mark out regions in a long trace that encapsulate sets of primitive operations that represent higher-level application actions. It is robust enough that it can work around discrepancies between training and target traces such as in length and interleaving with other operations. We demonstrate the feasibility of recognizing patterns based on a small sampling of the trace, enabling faster trace analysis. Preliminary experiments show that the method is capable of learning accurate profile models on live traces in an online setting. We present a detailed evaluation of this methodology in a UNIX environment using NFS traces of selected commonly used applications such as compilations as well as on industrial strength benchmarks such as TPC-C and Postmark, and discuss its capabilities and limitations in the context of the use cases mentioned above.

▼ File systems are very important components in a computer
system.
File system simulation can help to predict the performance of new
system designs. It offers the advantages of the flexibility of modeling and the cost and time savings of utilizing simulation instead of full implementation. Being able to predict end-to-end
file system performance against a pre-defined workload can help
system designers to make decisions that could affect their entire product line, involving several million dollars of investment. This dissertation presents detailed simulation-based performance models of the Linux ext3
file system and the PVFS parallel
file system. The models are developed using Colored Petri Nets. A performance study, using the models, shows that the obtained results are close to the expected behavior of the real
file system. The model shows that
file system parameters have significant impact on the performance of the I/O when compared to the parameters of the disk subsystem.

▼ Cílem této práce je návrh a implementace řešení transparentního šifrování pro platformu Microsoft Windows. Řešení by mělo být propojitelné s produktem prevence proti úniku dat (DLP) a rozšiřovat jej. K implementaci byl využit framework Microsoft
File System Minifilter Driver, s jehož pomocí je možné sledovat a upravovat přístup k jednotlivým souborům na externích zařízeních nebo discích za běhu systému. Soubory jsou zabezpečeny na pozadí tak, aby uživatel nebyl neovlivněn při práci. Ovladač zajišťuje, že uživatel vždy pracuje s rozšifrovanými daty. Dále bude také vyvinuta externí aplikace, která umožňuje uživateli přistoupit k zašifrovaným datům, aniž by musel být v síti, kde DLP produkt běží.; The goal of this thesis is to propose and implement a transparent encryption solution for the Microsoft Windows platform. The solution should be able to integrate with the data loss prevention (DLP) product and extend it. The implementation utilizes the Microsoft
File System Minifilter Driver framework, which allows it to monitor and modify access to files on an external device or a disk in a running
system. Protected files are encrypted in the background in order to not interfere with user's work. The driver ensures, that the user is always working with decrypted data. Furthermore, an external application will be developed, which will allow the user to access the protected files even in a network without the DLP product active.

▼ Data stored in third party storage systems like the cloud might not be secure since confidentiality and integrity of data are not guaranteed. Though cloud computing provides cost-effective storage services, it is a third party service and so, a client cannot trust the cloud service provider to store its data securely within the cloud. Hence, many organizations and users may not be willing to use the cloud services to store their data in the cloud until certain security guarantees are made. In this thesis, a solution to the problem of securely storing the client’s data by maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of the data within the cloud is developed. Five protocols are developed which ensure that the client’s data is stored only on trusted storage servers, replicated only on trusted storage servers, and guarantee that the data owners and other privileged users of that data access the data securely. The system is based on trusted computing platform technology [11]. It uses a Trusted Platform Module, specified by the Trusted Computing Group [11]. An encrypted file system is used to encrypt the user’s data. The system provides data security against a system administrator in the cloud.

▼ This dissertation presents novel approaches to the use of non-volatile memory devices in building storage systems. There are many types of non-volatile memory devices, and they usually have better performance than regular magnetic hard disks in terms of throughput and latency. This dissertation focused on two of them, NAND flash memory and Phase Change Memory (PCM). This work consisted of two parts.
The first part was to design a high-performance hybrid storage
system employing Solid State Drives that are build out of NAND flash memory and Hard Disk Drives. In this hybrid
system, we proposed two different policies to improve its performance. One is to exploit the fact that the performances of Solid State Drive and Hard Disk Drive are asymmetric and the other is to exploit concurrency on multiple devices. We implemented prototypes in Linux and evaluate both policies in multiple workloads and multiple configurations. The results showed that the proposed approaches improve the performance significantly, and adapt to different configurations of the
system under different workloads.
The second part was to implement a
file system on a special class of memory devices, Storage Class Memory (SCM), which is both byte addressable and also nonvolatile, e.g. PCM. We claimed that both the existing regular
file systems and the memory based
file systems are not suitable for SCM, and proposed a new
file system, called SCMFS, which is implemented on the virtual address space. In SCMFS, we utilized the existing memory management module in the operating
system to do the block management. Our design keeps address space within a
file contiguous to reduce the block management software. The simplicity of SCMFS not only makes it easy to implement, but also improves the performance. We implemented a prototype of SCMFS in Linux and evaluated its performance through multiple benchmarks.

▼ In this thesis, the average throughput of Btrfs and ZFS on Linux is compared by conducting a set of experiments. Btrfs and ZFS are two enterprise-grade file systems that are designed with data integrity and scalability in mind and they bring numerous of other useful features as well. Btrfs is a relatively young file system whereas ZFS is more mature. However, the implementation of ZFS on the Linux platform was released only recently. The main conclusions that can be drawn from the analysis of the gathered data is that Btrfs has improved greatly in recent years and is today showing great throughput whereas ZFS on Linux is performing considerably worse than Btrfs.

▼ Storage
system play an important role in computer architecture. In the era of big data, the demand of the capacity in storage is increasing. We use 100 megabytes in the past, but now we can see hundreds of thousands of terabytes hard disks in the market. The big revolution in capacity, tell us people have big demand on storage space.
As the popularity of the Internet, people change their habit and put their work on Internet, Google Drive, iCloud and Dropbox is a good example here. In the backend of these service, is supported by the cluster
system. And now, the requirement of the cloud storage is growing.
In this thesis, we want to solve the storage problem for CCTV
system. We pick up some famous distributed
file system and other application of network
file system, just like GlusterFS, MooseFS, NFS and iSCSI. We focus on
system throughput and characteristic for comparison. Hope to find out the best
file system in this case and give reader a reference when choosing the
file system.
