A New Virtual Disk Mapping Method for the Cloud Desktop Storage Client

Integration of the cloud desktop and cloud storage platform is urgent for enterprises. However, current proposals for cloud disk are not satisfactory in terms of the decoupling of virtual computing and business data storage in the cloud desktop environment. In this paper, we present a new virtual disk mapping method for cloud desktop storage. In Windows, compared with virtual hard disk method of popular cloud disks, the proposed implementation of client based on the virtual disk driver and the file system filter driver is available for widespread desktop environments, especially for the cloud desktop with limited storage resources. Further more, our method supports customizable local cache storage, resulting in userfriendly experience for thinclients of the cloud desktop. The evaluation results show that our virtual disk mapping method performs well in the readwrite throughput of different scale files.

Research on the Application of Cloud Desktop in Network Multimedia Classroom in Colleges

This paper proposes the application of cloud desktop in network multimedia classroom in colleges. Computer lab as the most important cloud part of the campus cloud, not only assume a variety of the computer courses teaching experiments, students self-learning, free on the machine and other tasks, but also as a variety of the paperless examination of the important places. Cloud room is a great feature of the use of virtualization technology, it can be used to virtual software to a lot of hardware features, regardless of the server, network equipment and clients can be virtual with a strong flexibility and scalability. We used these features when designing and in addition, when adding hardware and software equipment. This paper proposes the novel architecture of the system to then give us a novel perspective of building up the multimedia classroom.
