What u r saying looks absolutely correct?
I get some messages when ever I plug-in a USB device saying
SCSIxx: SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage device.

Where can see this code that integrates any USB device with the SCSI
Emulation?
I am just exited to know how it works.

I think you should look in directory: (or wherever your kernel sources are)
/usr/src/linux/drivers/usb/storage
