In this paper, we propose a new disk array architecture, mirroring and parity protected RAID (MP-RAID), which combines both mirroring and parity techniques to further improve reliability of disk arrays. The main idea behind MP-RAID is to protect the data by both mirroring and parity techniques: keep two copies of data in the same mirror set and update the parity block in the log disk within the same parity groups. Reliability analysis shows that the reliability of MP-RAID, in terms of mean time to data loss (MTTDL), is much better than RAID10 and RAID5.展开更多

A 'cluttered ordering' is utilized for designing an effective writing order to a RAID system. Cohen, Colboum and Froncek (2001) gave a cyclic construction of cluttered orderings for the complete graph by utilizing the notion of a 'wrapped p-labelling'. Since wrapped p-labellings as cluttered orderings for the complete graph look such as ladders, they are also called as ladder orderings. Cohen and Colboum (2004) gave a characteristic of ladder orderings. In this paper, we give an algorithm in order to generate ladder orderings.展开更多
