The ever-growing demand on information and data requires the efficient architecture for large-scale network storage systems. To serve very large scale applications, using inexpensive commodity becomes the common selection in nowadays cloud storage systems. Based on such unreliable hardware, building fault-tolerant mechanism is key issue to the system design. In this paper, we propose a rack-aware architecture for cloud storage systems.

In this paper, the authors propose a SDN based disaster-aware smart routing scheme for highly-available information storage systems. The authors' proposed scheme is based on the concept of Symbiotic Computing to recognize disaster status in Real Space, and provides appropriate routes form Digital Space dynamically. This realizes effective data transmission considering disaster situation and its time variation. In this paper, the authors design and implement their proposed scheme with dynamic multipath routing and parallel data transmission to enhance the network performance. They also evaluate its effectiveness through large-scale network environments.

In the current study, we tested whether representations in visual STM (VSTM) can be biased via top–down attentional modulation of visual activity in retinotopically specific locations. We manipulated attention using retrospective cues presented during the retention interval of a VSTM task. Retrospective cues triggered activity in a large-scale network implicated in attentional control and led to retinotopically specific modulation of activity in early visual areas V1–V4. Importantly, shifts of attention during VSTM maintenance were associated with changes in functional connectivity between pFC and retinotopic regions within V4. Our findings provide new insights into top–down control mechanisms that modulate VSTM representations for flexible and goal-directed maintenance of the most relevant memoranda.
