Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is natural gas that is converted into its liquid state for logistical benefits. It is also becoming a more viable alternative energy source due to its price competitiveness and environmental friendliness. We study an…
Energy storage is a critical issue and it becomes increasingly vital due to rapidly diminishing of fossil fuels and as renewable energy resources are currently intermittent. The thermal energy storage is the dawn of thermal management field. The lack…
It is crucial to ensure the safety and integrity of underground gas storage (UGS) infrastructure for energy reliability in California, and many other places around the world. To address the risk management need in UGS industry, we take advantage of…
Storing CO2 in geological formations is an important component of reducing greenhouse gases emissions. The Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) industry is now in its establishing phase, and if successful, massive storage volumes would be needed. It will…
Deduplication decreases the physical occupancy of files in a storage volume by removing duplicate copies of data chunks, but creates data-sharing dependencies that complicate standard storage management tasks. Specifically, data migration plans must…
Biometric authentication, the process of verification using unique biological characteristics, is considered one of the most accurate technologies for authentication. It compares two or more biometric data to identify the differences among them…
In this paper, a unified virtual cloud storage method for federated data based on the middle layer is proposed, which aims at solving the problems of the heterogeneous data sources of remote sensing data in the shared platform among the federated…
