Heiko Sparenberg, Tobias Joormann, Carsten Feldheim, Siegfried Föessel · 2013
This paper gives an introduction on the current challenges when storing and accessing movies in a very high quality, e.g. in the field of digital cinema or digital archiving. In contrast to the existing RAID configurations for performance improvements of disk drives, adaptive RAID approaches to be used with scalable media such as JPEG 2000 are introduced. These algorithms allow for assured real-time playback of several storage technologies including standard disk drives as well as cartridges when storing scalable data.
