We will also describe how to manipulate the records in these files in several ways. After reading this chapter, you will be able to do the following: Identify the types of data files [Section 8.1] Identify records and fields within a data file [Section 8.1] Create, write data to, and read data from a sequential file [Section 8.1] Delete, modify, and insert records in a sequential file [Section 8.2] Use arrays for file maintenance [Section 8.2] Merge two data files so that their records stay in order [Section 8.3] Use the control break processing technique in certain programming situations [Section 8.4] Combine many techniques learned so far—data files, arrays, searching, and sorting—to create a longer program [Section 8.5] ISBN 1-256-14455-X 405 Prelude to Programming: Concepts and Design, Fifth Edition, by Stewart Venit and Elizabeth Drake.

...which is used for large data analysis and storage. Hadoop decompose a massive job into number of smaller tasks. Hadoop uses Hadoop Distributed File System to store data. HDFS stores files as number of blocks and replicated for fault tolerance. The block placement strategy does not consider data placement characteristics. It stores file as block randomly. The block size and replication factor are configurable parameters. An application can specify number of replica of file and it can be changed later. HDFS cluster has master/slave architecture with a single Name Node as master server which manages the file system namespace and regulates access to file by clients. The slaves are called to the number of Data Nodes. File is divided into number of one or more blocks and stores as set of blocks in Data Nodes. Opening, renaming and closing file and directory all operations are done by Name Node and Data Node are responsible for read and write request from Name Node. Hadoop uses Hadoop distributed File System (HDFS) which is an open source implementation Google File System for storing data. HDFS is used in Hadoop for storing data.

...the process to move data from a source to a destination. I use this generic definition, as the tools are not specific to data warehousing. ETL tools and processes can be used to migrate data in any data context from data warehousing to data migration on an OLTP system update. The rest of this document will focus specifically on ETL issues and issues related to Pentaho Kettle. A good resource for Penaho Kettle is http://wiki.pentaho.com/display/EAI/Spoon+User+Guide ETL BASICS Some of the common usages for ETL are: Merging Data – Data is pulled from multiple sources to be merged into one or more destinations. Data Scrubbing (Format Modification) – Data formats can be changed. i.e. string to int, additionally, ETL can be used to “scrub” the data where bad data can be “fixed” using fuzzy lookups or other operations to infer a value. Automation – ETL can be used to automate the movement of data between two locations. This also standardizes the process, so that the load is done the same way in every run. JOBS, TRANSFORMATIONS, STEPS, and HOPS In Pentaho, each entire ETL process is described in one or more TRANSFORMATIONS. A transformation is defined as an entity that contains definitions on how to move data from one or more sources to one or more destinations. Specifically, a transformation will contain the following parts: 1. Input (s) – one or more input steps defines is the source of the data for a transformation. A transformation can contain 1 or more sources. Due...

...3- Deciding what replica files to keep or delete when there is shortage of storage in a site i.e. long-term optimization or dynamic replication strategy. Replication can be static or dynamic. In static replication the replicas have to be manually created, deleted and managed and it becomes tedious with the increase in files and user jobs. So it has the drawback that can not adapt to changes in user behavior. In real scenario, where the data amounts to peta bytes, and the user community is in the order of thousands around the world; static replication does not sound to be feasible. Dynamic replication strategies overcome the problem, where replica creation, deletion and management are done automatically. Dynamic replication strategies have the ability to adapt to changes in user behavior. Dynamic strategies are explained in section-2. In replication consistency is an important issue that needs to be considered. To overcome this problem as in other papers, it is assumed that: access pattern is read only for all replicas in data grid. The remainder of paper is organized as follows. Related work on replication and scheduling is given in section 3. A 3-layerd hierarchical structure is proposed for replication in data grid based on classification of networks, along with a novel algorithm for this structure is given in section 4. Section 5, covers the simulation result with optorsim and section 6 concludes the paper. Summary In data grids huge amount of data are generated and processed...

...S. Park and S.-Y. Ohm: New Techniques for Real-Time FAT File System in Mobile Multimedia Devices 1 New Techniques for Real-Time FAT File System in Mobile Multimedia Devices Sunhwa Park and Seong-Young Ohm Abstract — Flash memory has become the most important storage media in the mobile multimedia products such as MP3 players, mobile phones, and digital cameras. Most mobile multimedia devices, however, use one of the conventional FAT file systems slightly modified for flash memory environments. Our analysis shows that theses file systems have some restriction in recording a live multimedia stream stably because they have irregular write response times. In this paper, we have considered the problems of the existing FAT file system and propose two new techniques to solve the problems. The first technique called Sector Reservation method reduces internal overhead effectively. And the other method called ACPA avoids the periodic cluster allocation of the conventional FAT file system and removes the frequent modifications on the file allocation table in the FAT file system. To evaluate our new techniques, we implemented a prototype Real-Time FAT file system on ARM9 board with our two novel techniques. The experimental results show that our system achieves our goal successfully in that its write response times are very deterministic and more uniform1. Index Terms — Flash memory, FAT file system, FTL, Mobile multimedia device. I. INTRODUCTION One of the distinct trends in...
