GENERATING MOLECULAR ENCODING INFORMATION FOR DATA STORAGE

摘要

A method begins by a processing module of one or more processing modules of one or more computing devices generating a number for each encoded data slice of a set of encoded data slices based on the encoded data slice, identifying a gene based on the number to produce an identified gene, and creating a linking identifier that links the encoded data slice to the identified gene, where, for the set of encoded data slices, a set of identified genes and a set of linking identifiers are created. The method continues with the processing module generating molecular encoding information from the set of identified genes and the set of linking identifiers, where the molecular encoding information is used to create a molecular storage structure for each identified gene of the set of identified genes yielding a set of molecular storage structures.

1. A method for execution by one or more processing modules of one or more computing devices, the method comprises:
for each encoded data slice of a set of encoded data slices, wherein a data segment is dispersed storage error encoded into the set of encoded data slices and wherein a decode threshold number of encoded data slices of the set of encoded data slices is needed to recover the data segment:
generating a number based on the encoded data slice;identifying a gene based on the number to produce an identified gene; andcreating a linking identifier that links the encoded data slice to the identified gene,wherein, for the set of encoded data slices, a set of identified genes and a set of linking identifiers are created; and generating molecular encoding information from the set of identified genes and the set of linking identifiers, wherein the molecular encoding information is used to create a molecular storage structure for each identified gene of the set of identified genes yielding a set of molecular storage structures.
