论文摘要
由于当代存储媒体（如磁带，硬盘驱动器（HDD））和固态磁盘（SSD）所面临的媒体过时，对长期数据存档等替代媒体技术（如电影，合成DNA和玻璃）的研究最近引起了很多关注。尽管研究人员已经开发了新的布局和编码技术，以归档这些新媒体类型的数据库，但一个关键的问题仍然没有解决：我们如何确保今天开发的解码器将在未来几十年后恢复到未来几十年后的计算平台上，在潜在的潜在潜在地不存在的用户可以使用并可执行？ 在本文中，我们为通用布局仿真（ULE）提供了理由，这是一种新的方法，用于未来的长期数据库档案，它主张归档解码以及数据以确保成功恢复。为了做到这一点，Ule通过将仿真用于归档解码器来汇总来自数据管理和数字保存社区的概念。为了证明可以在实践中实现ULE，我们介绍了Micr'Olonys的设计和评估，Micr'Olonys是一种端到端的长期数据库档案系统，可用于使用视觉模拟媒体（如电影，Microform和Archatival Paper）来归档数据库。
Research on alternate media technologies, like film, synthetic DNA, and glass, for long-term data archival has received a lot of attention recently due to the media obsolescence issues faced by contemporary storage media like tape, Hard Disk Drives (HDD), and Solid State Disks (SSD). While researchers have developed novel layout and encoding techniques for archiving databases on these new media types, one key question remains unaddressed: How do we ensure that the decoders developed today will be available and executable by a user who is restoring an archived database several decades later in the future, on a computing platform that potentially does not even exist today? In this paper, we make the case for Universal Layout Emulation (ULE), a new approach for future-proof, long-term database archival that advocates archiving decoders together with the data to ensure successful recovery. In order to do so, ULE brings together concepts from Data Management and Digital Preservation communities by using emulation for archiving decoders. In order to show that ULE can be implemented in practice, we present the design and evaluation of Micr'Olonys, an end-to-end long-term database archival system that can be used to archive databases using visual analog media like film, microform, and archival paper.
