Diffraction-unlimited all-optical imaging and writing with a photochromic GFP

Marcel Leutenegger

Lens-based optical microscopy failed to discern fluorescent features closer than 200 nm for decades, but the recent breaking of the diffraction resolution barrier by sequentially switching the fluorescence capability of adjacent features on and off is maki ...

Reliability of clustered vs. declustered replica placement in data storage systems

Rüdiger Urbanke, Christina Fragouli

The placement of replicas across storage nodes in a replication-based storage system is known to affect rebuild times and therefore system reliability. Earlier work has shown that, for a replication factor of two, the reliability is essentially unaffected ...

Seasonal energy storage system based on hydrogen for self sufficient living

SELF is a resource independent living and working environment. By on-board renewable electricity generation and storage, it accounts for all aspects of living, such as space heating and cooking as well as providing a purified rainwater supply and wastewate ...

High Resolution Interference Microscopy: 3D measurement of focused light at 405nm applied to optical disc

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

High capacity data storage on DVD and optical discs is based on focused light beams. The characterization of light fields within the focus point is a very difficult task, which requires a high-resolution method like scanning near field optical microscopy ( ...

Shore-MT: A Scalable Storage Manager for the Multicore Era

Anastasia Ailamaki, Babak Falsafi, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Ippokratis Pandis

Database storage managers have long been able to efficiently handle multiple concurrent requests. Until recently, however, a computer contained only a few single-core CPUs, and therefore only a few transactions could simultaneously access the storage manag ...

Electroactive micro and nanowells for optofluidic storage

Demetri Psaltis

This paper reports an optofluidic architecture which enables reversible trapping, detection and long term storage of spectrally multiplexed semiconductor quantum dot cocktails in electrokinetically active wells ranging in size from 200nm to 5 mu m. Here we ...

Light-weight Internet-scale Universal Storage

Manfred Hauswirth, Roman Schmidt

Many new applications, for example Wikis, social networks, and distributed recommender systems, require the efficient integration of decentralized and heterogenous data sources at a large scale. In this paper, we present our vision of a universal storage f ...

Object-Oriented Stable Storage Based on Mirroring

Jörg Kienzle

Stable storage can be seen as an ideal storage medium that, given a set of failure assumptions, protects user data from corruption or loss. The integrity of the stored data must be guaranteed even in the presence of crash failures. In this paper, we show h ...

Method and apparatus for a parallel data storage and processing server

Roger Hersch

The present invention concerns a parallel multiprocessor-multidisk storage server which offers low delays and high throughputs when accessing and processing one-dimensional and multi-dimensional file data such as pixmap images, text, sound or graphics. The ...

Holographic data storage

Demetri Psaltis

Research into and the development of data storage devices is a race to keep up with the continuing demand for more capacity, more density, and faster readout rates. Improvements in conventional memory technologies-magnetic hard disk drives, optical disks, ...
