摘要:
A method of reading from a storage medium to recover a group of information sectors, each comprising a respective information payload. The medium stores redundancy data comprising a plurality of separate redundancy codes for the group, each code being a linear sum of terms, each term in the sum being the information payload from a different respective one of the information sectors in the group weighted by a respective coefficient of a set of coefficients for the redundancy code. The method comprises, after the redundancy data has already been stored on the medium: identifying a set of k′ information sectors to be recovered; selecting k′ of the redundancy codes; determining a square matrix E of the k′ information sectors by the k′ sets of coefficients of the selected codes; determining a matrix D being a matrix inverse of E; and recovering the k′ information payloads from the inverse matrix D.

One example provides a system for reading birefringent data. The system comprises one or more light sources, a first polarization state generator positioned to generate first polarized light from light of a first wavelength band output by the one or more light sources, a second polarization state generator positioned to generate second polarized light from light of a second wavelength band output by the one or light sources, an image sensor configured to acquire an image of the sample region via the first polarized light and the second polarized light, a polarization state analyzer disposed between the sample region and the image sensor, a first bandpass filter configured to pass light of the first wavelength band onto the image sensor, and a second bandpass filter configured to pass light of the second wavelength band onto the image sensor.

A method to record data in a solid substrate comprises modulating a polarization angle of a coherent optical pulsetrain, and, while the polarization angle is being modulated, focusing the coherent optical pulsetrain on a locus moving through the solid substrate at a relative velocity. Here the relative velocity, a width of the locus in a direction of the relative velocity, and a rate of modulation of the polarization angle are such that the substrate receives within the width of the locus two or more pulses of the optical pulsetrain differing in polarization angle. In this manner, the two or more pulses record, in different portions of the substrate within the width of the locus, two or more different symbols.

One example provides a computer-implemented method for reading data stored as birefringence values in a storage medium. The method comprises acquiring an image of a voxel of the storage medium, applying a first low-pass filter with a first cutoff frequency to the image of the voxel to obtain a first background image, applying a second low-pass filter with a second cutoff frequency to the image of the voxel to obtain a second background image, the second cutoff frequency being different than the first cutoff frequency, determining an enhanced background image from the first background image and the second background image, determining birefringence values for the enhanced background image, determining birefringence values for the image of the voxel, and correcting the birefringence values for the image of the voxel based upon the birefringence values for the enhanced background image.

A data-storage system comprises a head receiver configured to variably receive up to a number M of write heads. The data-storage system also includes an installed number N of write heads arranged in the head receiver, a substrate receiver configured to receive one or more data-storage substrates, and a positioner machine configured to adjust a relative placement of each of the M write heads with respect to at least one of the one or more data-storage substrates.

Controlling data storage input/output requests is described, for example, to apply a policy to an end-to-end flow of data input/output requests between at least one computing entity and at least one store. In various examples a plurality of queues are configured at one or more stages of the end-to-end flow and controlled to adhere to a policy. In examples, each stage has a control interface enabling it to receive and execute control instructions from a controller which may be centralized or distributed. For example, the control instructions comprise queuing rules and/or queue configurations. In various examples queues and queuing rules are dynamically created and revised according to feedback about any of: flow behavior, changes in policy, changes in infrastructure or other factors. In examples, high level identifiers of the flow endpoints are resolved, on a per stage basis, to low level identifiers suitable for use by the stage.

Various technologies described herein pertain to enforcing control flow integrity by adding instrumentation when source code is compiled or binary code is rewritten. An indirect call to a control transfer target (e.g., in the source code, in the binary code, etc.) can be identified. Moreover, the instrumentation can be inserted prior to the indirect call. The instrumentation can use a bit from a bitmap maintained by a runtime to verify whether the control transfer target is valid. When an executable image that includes the inserted instrumentation runs, execution can be terminated and/or other appropriate actions can be taken when the control transfer target is determined to be invalid; alternatively, execution can continue when the control transfer target is determined to be valid.
