The University of Minnesota is completing single university Phase I I/UCRC Center on Intelligent Storage (CRIS) and is proposing to establish a multi-university I/UCRC Phase II Center on intelligent storage with Texas A&M University and Temple University. The center research will focus on intelligent storage devices that have greater semantic and structural knowledge about their stored data as compared to standard disk technology. Additionally, center will develop high-performance long-term data management systems that will ensure the necessary levels of security throughout the data?s lifecycle.Currently, there is emphasis on addressing the needs of ?big data? environment and ?cloud computing? such as identifying and locating the right information and managing and preserving the existing data. In order to meet these needs, new storage architectures, different storage systems design, new data models, new information access methods and new ways to deliver information will be identified. The focus of the center will be on how to solve the big data problem with new storage technologies, new designs of storage systems/architectures, emerging management frameworks and tools in the current computing and communication environment. Industry has recognized the importance of this new computing and communication environment. Many new products for storage/file systems, storage management, and ways of preserving the data have evolved. However, most of these applications require more research and development. The center will utilize synergies from both academia and industry, encourage innovative and creative thinking for integrated solutions that combine techniques from storage systems, file systems and information retrieval, enhance the understanding of large scale data management and information retrieval, and develop prototypes for long-term data preservation.The ?big data? problem is currently faced by not only individuals, but also by almost all segments of the society, including professional groups, research communities, companies and government. The proposed center will facilitate the process of developing and researching solutions that can efficiently manage and preserve large volumes of data and provide needed information to an end user on-demand from anywhere at any time. The potential outcomes includes fostering the advancement of science and technology, making the society more efficient and secure, providing better health-care delivery, and better ways of preserving information and arts produced by our culture. The research results will be disseminated to general public via journal publications and conference presentations. The Center will enhance the education process by bringing input from industry, developing new courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels and emphasizing the diversity of the student population. Special effort will be carried out to bring in more female and under-represented minority students. All three sites plan to educate a new generation of systems oriented students to satisfy the needs from both industry and government.

明尼苏达大学正在完成I/UCRC智能存储（CRIS）的单大学I/UCRC中心，并提议与德克萨斯A＆M大学和坦普尔大学建立多元大学I/UCRC II阶段II阶段中心。与标准磁盘技术相比，该中心研究将集中在具有更多有关其存储数据的语义和结构知识的智能存储设备上。此外，中心将开发高性能的长期数据管理系统，以确保在整个数据生命周期中确保必要的安全水平。环境和云计算？例如识别和找到正确的信息，管理和保存现有数据。为了满足这些需求，将确定新的存储架构，不同的存储系统设计，新的数据模型，新的信息访问方法和新的提供信息的方法。该中心的重点将是如何通过新的存储技术，存储系统/架构的新设计，新兴管理框架以及当前计算和通信环境中的工具解决大数据问题。行业已经认识到这种新的计算和通信环境的重要性。许多用于存储/文件系统，存储管理以及保存数据的方法的新产品已经发展。但是，这些应用中的大多数都需要更多的研发。该中心将利用学术界和行业的协同作用，鼓励对整合解决方案进行创新和创造性的思维，这些解决方案结合了存储系统，文件系统和信息检索技术，增强对大规模数据管理和信息检索的理解，并为长期数据保存而开发原型。问题目前不仅被个人，而且还面临社会几乎所有的细分市场，包括专业团体，研究社区，公司和政府。拟议的中心将促进开发和研究解决方案的过程，这些解决方案可以有效地管理和保留大量数据，并随时随地向最终用户按需提供所需的信息。潜在的结果包括促进科学和技术的发展，使社会更加有效和安全，提供更好的医疗保健服务，以及保存我们文化产生的信息和艺术的更好方法。研究结果将通过期刊出版物和会议演讲将其传播给公众。该中心将通过带来行业的意见，在本科和研究生级别开发新课程，并强调学生群体的多样性来增强教育过程。将采取特别的努力来吸引更多女性和代表性不足的少数民族学生。这三个站点都计划教育新一代以系统为导向的学生，以满足行业和政府的需求。
