US Permanent Resident (green card holder) Phone (408) 431-4101 Fax (408) 519-6450 Email: keniwammoto@graidatech.com Carrier Objective My carrier objective has been combining the data storage and video technology together since I started the job at TV broadcasting station. Video recoding with the hard disk was my original thoughts however the disk access speed went up but not satisfactory to HD (High Definition) video thruputs. The RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) technology with multiple hard disks was implemented to store the HD video data which required about 2Gb/s read/write speed. This implementation has been the choice for video recording technique.I spent the substantial amount of time for both RAID and HD video to accomplish. Job Experience: (1997-2010) gRAID A Technologies, Inc. Los Gatos, California Director: Kenji Iwamoto, Richard Barbara CTO Development of Solid State Disk (SSD) The SSD based on DRAM, Flash memory emulating the hard disk without mechanical structure, purely memory chips and micro controller and interfaced with SATA and Fiber-Channel used as the part of our RAID system. Development of the high speed Redundant Array of Independent Disk systems (RAID), This device enables to record High Definition Television digital data at the streaming rate of 2Gb/s or more through the fiber channel connectivity to High Definition Television system (HDTV*) or compositing and edit system deploying low cost PC rather than very expensive mini computer. 1. RAID, very complex codes/architecture , our RAID kernel (core operating software for RAID centric) ,K9 code based by Bell Lab (open source), real time complex and fast task Note: Ordinary operating system such as Unix, Linux and Windows etc are all Non-Real Time Operating System and Our RAID Kernel K9 for True Real Time Operating System -Core real time multi tasking kernel design -RAID centric driver design -RAID hardware design 2. HDTV Non-Compressed Digital Disk Recorder technology was developed with the combination of the above RAID technology + high speed digital video technologies (typical working thruputs of 2Gb/s transfer rate)???
