Disclosed herein is a method for distributed training of an AI model in a channel-sharing network environment. The method includes determining whether data parallel processing is applied, calculating a computation time and a communication time when input data is evenly distributed across multiple computation devices, and unevenly distributing the input data across the multiple computation devices based on the computation time and the communication time.

Method and apparatus for distributed training of artificial intelligence model in channel-sharing network environment

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for page allocation in a many-to-one virtualization environment. The method may include determining whether a page fault interrupt is caused by page initialization for page allocation, sending an ownership change message to a node having ownership of the corresponding page when the page fault interrupt is determined to be caused by page initialization, and initializing the corresponding page upon receiving an ownership-change-processing-complete message.

Apparatus and method for page allocation in many-to-one virtualization environment

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for processing fast persistent writing to nonvolatile memory. A method for processing fast persistent writing to a nonvolatile memory includes writing log data from a last storage position in a data block created in a certain size, reflecting the entire data block in a storage medium, increasing the last storage position by a size of the written log data, and reflecting the entire data block in a storage medium, wherein the data block is linearly linked to an additional data block in a creation order, and wherein the data block includes a log data storage region, information about a last storage position where the log data is stored in the log data storage region, and information about a linked next data block.

Apparatus and method for fast persistent writing to nonvolatile memory

Disclosed herein are a hybrid memory management apparatus and method for an many-to-one virtualization environment. The hybrid memory management apparatus is implemented in an inverse-virtualization-based multi-node computing system including multiple physical nodes, each containing hybrid memory in which DRAM and NVRAM coexist, a virtual machine, and hypervisors, and includes memory for storing at least one program, and a processor for executing the program, wherein the program includes a remote request service module for processing a page-related request with reference to the hybrid memory and responding to the page-related request by transmitting a result of processing, an internal request service module for processing an internal page fault request with reference to a hybrid memory and responding to the internal page fault request, and a data arrangement module for responding to an inquiry request for a location at which a newly added page is to be arranged in the hybrid memory.

Hybrid memory management apparatus and method for many-to-one virtualization environment

Provided are an apparatus and a method for acquiring a consistent result even if one client accesses any metadata server in a circumstance that the cluster configuring many metadata servers exist. The apparatus as mentioned above includes a deletion file list unit that stores information about a deleted metadata during a predetermined period; and a metadata server selector that selects a metadata server to receive a operation request about a metadata among a plurality of metadata servers based on information from the deletion file list unit.

Apparatus and method for accessing a metadata

Provided are a file storage system, and a method for managing duplicate files in the file storage system. The file storage system that performs file duplication for error recovery includes a client for requesting generation of a duplicate file of a new file being stored, a metadata server for storing information associated with prestored duplicate files and determining whether a file that is identical to the new file is present among the prestored duplicate files, to limit a number of identical duplicate files to a preset number, and a data server comprising a file duplication unit and a storage unit for respectively performing file duplication and file storage under the control of the metadata server. Accordingly, file recovery can be performed while duplicate files in the system are minimized.

File storage system and method for managing duplicate files in file storage system

Provided is a system and method for updating a plurality of the same files consistently. The file update system comprises a first and a second data servers formed as pipe line type network for storing an original file and a duplicate file of the original file respectively, and for updating both the original file and the duplicate file in response to an update request, wherein the first and the second data servers mutually exchange file update information, correct the file update information so as to prevent overlapped update due to a plurality of update requests for the same file, and then update the original file or the duplicate file according to the corrected file update information.
