Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a system for facilitating a lightweight distributed storage system. During operation, the system generates a data segment from a data file associated with a write operation and determines a storage key for the data segment. The storage key indicates a calculated storage path associated with a replica of the data segment. The system then determines whether a user-defined storage path is specified by a user for the data segment. If a user-defined storage path has not been specified by the user for the data segment, the system generates a data packet comprising the data segment, wherein a destination for the data packet corresponds to a target disk specified by the calculated storage path.

Abstract: A power supply apparatus for a magnetic resonance apparatus has a power supply terminal module with a power supply unit and a reference voltage pull-down unit, and a load terminal module with a voltage comparator connected to a load power-feed terminal, which compares a nominal voltage and an actual voltage of the load power-feed terminal. A counter begins counting when the actual voltage is lower than the nominal voltage, and keeps its count unchanged when the actual voltage is equal to the nominal voltage, and emits a signal corresponding to the count to a digital-to-analog converter, connected to a phase inverter, which converts the digital signal to a positive analog voltage. A phase inverter is connected to an output voltage reference terminal of the power supply unit, and inverts the phase of the analog voltage to produce a negative analog voltage that compensates voltage drop loss on a cable between the power supply and the load power-feed terminal.
