Abstract: A flexible server system includes an embedded processor, one or more processor boards, one or more storage boards, and a switch including a plurality of ports. The embedded processor, the one or more processor boards, and the one or more storage boards are connected to a corresponding one of the plurality of ports. The embedded processor, the one or more processor boards, the one or more storage boards, and the switch each include a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) interface. The one or more processor boards and the one or more storage boards are connected to the switch through connectors where each of the corresponding connectors have a same size. The embedded processor controls the switch to route a packet from one of the plurality of ports to another one of the plurality of ports.

Abstract: A semiconductor apparatus and system are provided. The semiconductor apparatus includes a host core configured to drive at least one device drive and a solid state drive (SSD), a flash interface configured to interface with the host core and the SSD, and an internal bus configured to transmit signals between the host core and the flash interface, wherein the host core, the flash interface, and the internal bus are disposed on a single chip substrate, and the SSD is not disposed on the single chip substrate.

Abstract: A distributed processing method and apparatus are provided. The distributed processing method includes receiving status information about a plurality of storages respectively provided in a plurality of slave nodes constituting a distributed cluster, and selecting at least one operation node, among the plurality of slave nodes, for performing at least one operation to be processed in the distributed cluster based on the status information.

Abstract: A method of controlling operation timing of memory devices included in a storage apparatus and a memory system including the method. The method includes adjusting operation timing such that a number of memory devices that simultaneously perform operations is below a reference value according to a host request, and issuing operations according to the adjusted operation timing and transferring the issued operations to the memory devices.

Abstract: This invention relates to a user authenticating system and a method using aone-time fingerprint template. The system and the method according to the invention are improvements of the conventional user authentication based on the manner of comparing the fingerprint feature data only, for the purpose of preventing a false authentication by misusing fingerprint feature data, if exposed in the course of transfer thereof. In the system and the method according to the invention, fingerprint feature data of a user are combined with an OTT key transferred from a server. The combined result is encoded and transferred to an authenticating server. The authenticating server then confirms validity of the OTT key and authenticates the user based on the fingerprint. Thus, the present invention has an advantage of preventing a false authentication through hacking, etc., even if the OTT key is exposed to a network, because the OTT key is used only once for authentication.
