A flexible model for estimating reliability of RAID storage systems is presented. This model corrects errors associated with the common assumption that system times to failure fol...
Previous approaches to RAID scaling either require a very large amount of data to be migrated, or cannot tolerate multiple disk additions without resulting in disk imbalance. In t...
Time zones play an important and unexplored role in malware epidemics. To understand how time and location affect malware spread dynamics, we studied botnets, or large coordinated...
Army ant colonies display complex foraging raid patterns involving thousands of individuals communicating through chemical trails. In this article we explore, by means of a simple ...
Access latency to secondary storage devices is frequently a limiting factor in computer system performance. New storage technologies promise to provide greater storage densities a...
