The present invention is directed to nanowire structures and interconnected nanowire networks comprising such structures, as well as methods for their production. The nanowire structures comprise a nanowire core, a carbon-based layer, and in additional embodiments, carbon-based structures such as nanographitic plates consisting of graphenes formed on the nanowire cores, interconnecting the nanowire structures in the networks. The networks are porous structures that can be formed into membranes or particles. The nanowire structures and the networks formed using them are useful in catalyst and electrode applications, including fuel cells, as well as field emission devices, support substrates and chromatographic applications.

An untrusted component exposing a high level storage object interface within an untrusted client virtual machine accepts application level storage object operations. Responsive to a storage object operation, the untrusted component passes a message through the underlying hypervisor to an associated trusted component. The trusted component processes the message by authenticating the client virtual machine and locating an internal mapping between the client virtual machine and an associated customer-specific set of backend storage resources to which the requested storage object operation is to be applied. The trusted component uses a trust relationship with the backend storage system to securely communicate the storage object operation to the backend storage system, and passes the operation results through the hypervisor back to the untrusted component in the source client virtual machine from which the storage object request originated.

There is a need to improve access speed for a file in a storage system that is provided with multiple storage units having different access speeds.The storage system (10) includes an access frequency acquiring part (14) that divides a past constant accessed data acquisition period into multiple unit periods, and obtains an access frequency for file stored in any of the multiple storage units (30 and 31), a similarity degree calculating part (16) that obtains, for each file, a similarity degree between the access frequency to the file for each unit period, and the access frequency to every other file for each unit period, a grouping process part (17) that groups one or more other files having a similarity degree equal to or higher than a predetermined value, in an identical group, and a file relocation part (18) that places a file belonging to the identical group into a storage unit (30) having a high access speed, when the file stored in the storage units (30 and 31) is accessed and there exists any other file within the identical group to which the file belongs.
