Engineering DNA Materials for Sustainable Data Storage Using a DNA Movable-Type System

DNA molecules are green materials with great potential for high-density and long-term data storage.However,the current data-writing process of DNA data storage via DNA synthesis suffers from high costs and the production of hazards,limiting its practical applications.Here,we developed a DNA movable-type storage system that can utilize DNA fragments pre-produced by cell factories for data writing.In this system,these pre-generated DNA fragments,referred to herein as“DNA movable types,”are used as basic writing units in a repetitive way.The process of data writing is achieved by the rapid assembly of these DNA movable types,thereby avoiding the costly and environmentally hazardous process of de novo DNA synthesis.With this system,we successfully encoded 24 bytes of digital information in DNA and read it back accurately by means of high-throughput sequencing and decoding,thereby demonstrating the feasibility of this system.Through its repetitive usage and biological assembly of DNA movable-type fragments,this system exhibits excellent potential for writing cost reduction,opening up a novel route toward an economical and sustainable digital data-storage technology.

Long-term optical data storage(ODS)technology is essential to break the bottleneck of high energy consumption for information storage in the current era of big data.Here,ODS with an ultralong lifetime of 2×10^(7)years is attained with single ultrafast laser pulse induced reduction of Eu^(3+)ions and tailoring of optical properties inside the Eu-doped aluminosilicate glasses.We demonstrate that the induced local modifications in the glass can stand against the temperature of up to 970 K and strong ultraviolet light irradiation with the power density of 100 kW/cm^(2).Furthermore,the active ions of Eu^(2+)exhibit strong and broadband emission with the full width at half maximum reaching 190 nm,and the photoluminescence(PL)is flexibly tunable in the whole visible region by regulating the alkaline earth metal ions in the glasses.The developed technology and materials will be of great significance in photonic applications such as long-term ODS.

Lensless complex amplitude demodulation based on deep learning in holographic data storage

To increase the storage capacity in holographic data storage(HDS),the information to be stored is encoded into a complex amplitude.Fast and accurate retrieval of amplitude and phase from the reconstructed beam is necessary during data readout in HDS.In this study,we proposed a complex amplitude demodulation method based on deep learning from a single-shot diffraction intensity image and verified it by a non-interferometric lensless experiment demodulating four-level amplitude and four-level phase.By analyzing the correlation between the diffraction intensity features and the amplitude and phase encoding data pages,the inverse problem was decomposed into two backward operators denoted by two convolutional neural networks(CNNs)to demodulate amplitude and phase respectively.The experimental system is simple,stable,and robust,and it only needs a single diffraction image to realize the direct demodulation of both amplitude and phase.To our investigation,this is the first time in HDS that multilevel complex amplitude demodulation is achieved experimentally from one diffraction intensity image without iterations.

The exponential growth of data necessitates an effective data storage scheme,which helps to effectively manage the large quantity of data.To accomplish this,Deoxyribonucleic Acid(DNA)digital data storage process can be employed,which encodes and decodes binary data to and from synthesized strands of DNA.Vector quantization(VQ)is a commonly employed scheme for image compression and the optimal codebook generation is an effective process to reach maximum compression efficiency.This article introduces a newDNAComputingwithWater StriderAlgorithm based Vector Quantization(DNAC-WSAVQ)technique for Data Storage Systems.The proposed DNAC-WSAVQ technique enables encoding data using DNA computing and then compresses it for effective data storage.Besides,the DNAC-WSAVQ model initially performsDNA encoding on the input images to generate a binary encoded form.In addition,aWater Strider algorithm with Linde-Buzo-Gray(WSA-LBG)model is applied for the compression process and thereby storage area can be considerably minimized.In order to generate optimal codebook for LBG,the WSA is applied to it.The performance validation of the DNAC-WSAVQ model is carried out and the results are inspected under several measures.The comparative study highlighted the improved outcomes of the DNAC-WSAVQ model over the existing methods.

A Secure Microgrid Data Storage Strategy with Directed Acyclic Graph Consensus Mechanism

The wide application of intelligent terminals in microgrids has fueled the surge of data amount in recent years.In real-world scenarios,microgrids must store large amounts of data efficiently while also being able to withstand malicious cyberattacks.To meet the high hardware resource requirements,address the vulnerability to network attacks and poor reliability in the tradi-tional centralized data storage schemes,this paper proposes a secure storage management method for microgrid data that considers node trust and directed acyclic graph(DAG)consensus mechanism.Firstly,the microgrid data storage model is designed based on the edge computing technology.The blockchain,deployed on the edge computing server and combined with cloud storage,ensures reliable data storage in the microgrid.Secondly,a blockchain consen-sus algorithm based on directed acyclic graph data structure is then proposed to effectively improve the data storage timeliness and avoid disadvantages in traditional blockchain topology such as long chain construction time and low consensus efficiency.Finally,considering the tolerance differences among the candidate chain-building nodes to network attacks,a hash value update mechanism of blockchain header with node trust identification to ensure data storage security is proposed.Experimental results from the microgrid data storage platform show that the proposed method can achieve a private key update time of less than 5 milliseconds.When the number of blockchain nodes is less than 25,the blockchain construction takes no more than 80 mins,and the data throughput is close to 300 kbps.Compared with the traditional chain-topology-based consensus methods that do not consider node trust,the proposed method has higher efficiency in data storage and better resistance to network attacks.

Near-perfect fidelity polarization-encoded multilayer optical data storage based on aligned gold nanorods

Encoding information in light polarization is of great importance in facilitating optical data storage(ODS)for information security and data storage capacity escalation.However,despite recent advances in nanophotonic techniques vastly en-hancing the feasibility of applying polarization channels,the data fidelity in reconstructed bits has been constrained by severe crosstalks occurring between varied polarization angles during data recording and reading process,which gravely hindered the utilization of this technique in practice.In this paper,we demonstrate an ultra-low crosstalk polarization-en-coding multilayer ODS technique for high-fidelity data recording and retrieving by utilizing a nanofibre-based nanocom-posite film involving highly aligned gold nanorods(GNRs).With parallelizing the gold nanorods in the recording medium,the information carrier configuration minimizes miswriting and misreading possibilities for information input and output,respectively,compared with its randomly self-assembled counterparts.The enhanced data accuracy has significantly im-proved the bit recall fidelity that is quantified by a correlation coefficient higher than 0.99.It is anticipated that the demon-strated technique can facilitate the development of multiplexing ODS for a greener future.

With the development of Industry 4.0 and big data technology,the Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT)is hampered by inherent issues such as privacy,security,and fault tolerance,which pose certain challenges to the rapid development of IIoT.Blockchain technology has immutability,decentralization,and autonomy,which can greatly improve the inherent defects of the IIoT.In the traditional blockchain,data is stored in a Merkle tree.As data continues to grow,the scale of proofs used to validate it grows,threatening the efficiency,security,and reliability of blockchain-based IIoT.Accordingly,this paper first analyzes the inefficiency of the traditional blockchain structure in verifying the integrity and correctness of data.To solve this problem,a new Vector Commitment(VC)structure,Partition Vector Commitment(PVC),is proposed by improving the traditional VC structure.Secondly,this paper uses PVC instead of the Merkle tree to store big data generated by IIoT.PVC can improve the efficiency of traditional VC in the process of commitment and opening.Finally,this paper uses PVC to build a blockchain-based IIoT data security storage mechanism and carries out a comparative analysis of experiments.This mechanism can greatly reduce communication loss and maximize the rational use of storage space,which is of great significance for maintaining the security and stability of blockchain-based IIoT.

Highly reliable and efficient encoding systems for hexadecimal polypeptide-based data storage

Polypeptides consisting of amino acid(AA)sequences are suitable for high-density information storage.However,the lack of suitable encoding systems,which accommodate the characteristics of polypeptide synthesis,storage and sequencing,impedes the application of polypeptides for large-scale digital data storage.To address this,two reliable and highly efficient encoding systems,i.e.RaptorQ-Arithmetic-Base64-Shuffle-RS(RABSR)and RaptorQArithmetic-Huffman-Rotary-Shuffle-RS(RAHRSR)systems,are developed for polypeptide data storage.The two encoding systems realized the advantages of compressing data,correcting errors of AA chain loss,correcting errors within AA chains,eliminating homopolymers,and pseudo-randomized encrypting.The coding efficiency without arithmetic compression and error correction of audios,pictures and texts by the RABSR system was 3.20,3.12 and 3.53 Bits/AA,respectively.While that using the RAHRSR system reached 4.89,4.80 and 6.84 Bits/AA,respectively.When implemented with redundancy for error correction and arithmetic compression to reduce redundancy,the coding efficiency of audios,pictures and texts by the RABSR system was 4.43,4.36 and 5.22 Bits/AA,respectively.This efficiency further increased to 7.24,7.11 and 9.82 Bits/AA by the RAHRSR system,respectively.Therefore,the developed hexadecimal polypeptide-based systems may provide a new scenario for highly reliable and highly efficient data storage.

A kind of optical data storage medium based on electron-trapping materials,Y_(3)Al_(5)O_(12):Ce^(3+)fluorescent ceramic,was developed by vacuum sintering technology.The medium shows sufficiently deep traps[1.67 and 0.77 eV].The properties of trap levels were researched by thermoluminescence curves,and the optical storage mechanism based on Ce^(3+)ion doping was proposed.More importantly,the data can be written-in by 254 nm UV light,and readout by heating[300°C].This work expands the application fields of fluorescent ceramics,and it is expected to promote the development of electron-trapping materials.

Data Security Storage Mechanism Based on Blockchain Network

With the rapid development of information technology,the development of blockchain technology has also been deeply impacted.When performing block verification in the blockchain network,if all transactions are verified on the chain,this will cause the accumulation of data on the chain,resulting in data storage problems.At the same time,the security of data is also challenged,which will put enormous pressure on the block,resulting in extremely low communication efficiency of the block.The traditional blockchain system uses theMerkle Tree method to store data.While verifying the integrity and correctness of the data,the amount of proof is large,and it is impossible to verify the data in batches.A large amount of data proof will greatly impact the verification efficiency,which will cause end-to-end communication delays and seriously affect the blockchain system’s stability,efficiency,and security.In order to solve this problem,this paper proposes to replace the Merkle tree with polynomial commitments,which take advantage of the properties of polynomials to reduce the proof size and communication consumption.By realizing the ingenious use of aggregated proof and smart contracts,the verification efficiency of blocks is improved,and the pressure of node communication is reduced.

High density collinear holographic data storage system

Holographic data storage system （HDSS） has been a good candidate for a volumetric recording technology, due to their large storage capacities and high transfer rates, and have been researched for tens of years after the principle of holography was first proposed. However, these systems, called conventional 2-axis holography, still have essential issues for commercialization of products. Collinear HDSS, in which the information and reference beams are modulated co-axially by the same spatial light modulator （SLM）, as a new read/write method for HDSS are very promising. With this unique configuration, the optical pickup can be designed as small as DVDs, and can be placed on one side of the recording media （disc）. In the disc structure, the preformatted reflective layer is used for the focus/tracking servo and reading address information, and a dichroic mirror layer is used for detecting holographic recording information without interfering with the preformatted information. A 2-dimensional digital page data format is used and the shift-multiplexing method is employed to increase recording density. As servo technologies are being introduced to control the objective lens to be maintained precisely to the disc in the recording and reconstructing process, a vibration isolator is no longer necessary. Collinear holography can produce a small, practical HDSS more easily than conventional 2-axis holography. In this paper, we introduced the principle of the collinear holography and its media structure of disc. Some results of experimental and theoretical studies suggest that it is a very effective method. We also discussed some methods to increase the recording density and data transfer rates of collinear holography.
