Delay cache method and apparatus

Delayed caching receives an evaluation interval to delay updating the objects stored in a delayed cache, delays a time period corresponding to the evaluation interval, and updates the objects stored in the contents of the delayed cache when the time period delay has completed. The configuration operation for the delayed cache selects a time interval to sample a trace having object access frequencies for objects stored in a cache, creates a first working set of objects accessed during the time interval and a second working set of objects accessed during a subsequent time interval based on the historical trace, determines that the difference between the objects contained in the first and second working sets does not exceed a maximum threshold with the selected time interval, and sets a evaluation interval for evaluating the contents of the cache to the selected time interval.

Preallocation of file system cache blocks in a data storage system

A file server provides transaction processing capabilities previously supplied by the operating system of a host computer. On-disk file system metadata is changed only at commit time, and a transaction log protects the transition. The disk state can only be a consistent state, resulting from a commit operation. All disk-block reservation and pre-allocation mapping are in the memory, and after a crash, they are automatically discarded. The file server therefore relieves the client of processing burden and also reduces network traffic. In addition, the file server can more efficiently perform the transaction processing capabilities and reduce the frequency of access to storage by judicious allocation of file system blocks and transfer of file system blocks between file system objects, cache memory, and the transaction log. The differentiation between preallocation states and allocation states of in-memory file system blocks also permits application programs to more efficiently transfer data between files.

Multiple access frequency hopping network with interference anticipation

Spread spectrum packet-switching radio devices (22) are operated in two or more ad-hoc networks or pico-networks (19, 20, 21) that share frequency-hopping channel and time slots that may collide. The frequency hopping sequences (54) of two or more masters (25) are exchanged using identity codes, permitting the devices to anticipate collision time slots (52). Priorities are assigned to the simultaneously operating piconets (19, 20, 21) during collision slots (52), e.g., as a function of their message queue size or latency, or other factors. Lower priority devices may abstain from transmitting during predicted collision slots (52), and / or a higher priority device may employ enhanced transmission resources during those slots, such as higher error correction levels, or various combinations of abstinence and error correction may be applied. Collisions are avoided or the higher priority piconet (19, 20, 21) is made likely to prevail in a collision.

Priority based data scrubbing on a deduplicated data store

Deduplicated data objects are scrubbed by a executing a priority scrubbing task that scans the deduplicated data objects and applies a condition that enables priority data scrubbing based on the value of at least one attribute of the de-duplicated data objects. For example, a low priority task scrubs a deduplicated data object when a reference count of the deduplicated object reaches a threshold. A high priority task scrubs a deduplicated data object when a priority attribute indicates that the deduplicated data object is used by a critical source data object. A medium priority task scrubs a deduplicated data object when the access frequency of the deduplicated data object reaches a threshold. The condition may encode a scrubbing policy or heuristic, and may trigger further action in addition to scrubbing, such as triggering an update of the access rate.

Accumulating access frequency and file attributes for supporting policy based storage management

A system and method for performing policy-based storage management using data related to access frequency and file attribute accumulation. A switch device provides transparency for transactions between a client and a storage network. The transparency allows objects (e.g., files or directories) to be moved (e.g., migrated) on the storage network without affecting a reference to the object used by the client (e.g., a file handle). A monitoring module generates accumulation data associated with the transactions for use in policy-based management. The accumulation data can describe uses of the file such as how often certain files are accessed, modifications to files such as creations of new directories or files, and other uses.

Method and System for Estimating Unique Visitors for Internet Sites

This invention comprises a method and system for estimating unique visitors for Internet sites that is more accurate than the existing unique cookie / unique address counting methods. The invented method relies on the count of unique user identifiers (such as network addresses or preferably cookies)—I—that can be obtained from an existing cookie tracking / user access logging system. The number of unique visitors U is calculated substantially as a ratio of the count of unique cookies (or unique network addresses) to the number of visits N times the inflation factor X plus constant on that is approximately one (exactly one in the case of cookies). The number of visits is calculated by multiplying the sampling period t to the visitation frequency T1 minus one. The resulting estimate of the unique visitors is stable and does not diverge with sampling time unlike estimates directly obtained from the unique network address or unique cookie counts. The method is also applicable when there are multiple dominant visitation frequencies by accounting to the sum by all significant visitation frequencies. All key parameters of the method can be established before hand by mining a multitude of the site's historical visit logs and / or third party site access logs; the parameters can be corrected / calculated dynamically by mining the site's current access log (or current third party logs) while focusing on unambiguously identified visitors (such as return visitors identified by their login ID or unchanged cookie value).

Solid-State Disk Caching the Top-K Hard-Disk Blocks Selected as a Function of Access Frequency and a Logarithmic System Time

A solid state disk (SSD) caches disk-based volumes in a heterogeneous storage system, improving the overall storage-system performance. The hottest data blocks are identified based on two factors: the frequency of access, and temporal locality. Temporal locality is computed using a logarithmic system time. IO latency is reduced by migrating these hottest data blocks from hard-disk-based volumes to the solid-state flash-memory disks. Some dedicated mapping metadata and a novel top-K B-tree structure are used to index the blocks. Data blocks are ranked by awarding a higher current value for recent accesses, but also by the frequency of accesses. A non-trivial value for accesses in the past is retained by accumulating the two factors over many time spans expressed as a logarithmic system time. Having two factors, access frequency and the logarithmic system time, provides for a more balanced caching system.
