Abstract. Cluster-based storage systems connected with TCP/IP networks are expected to achieve a high throughput by striping files across multiple storage servers. However, for th...
Distributed storage systems employ replicas or erasure code to ensure high reliability and availability of data. Such replicas create great amount of network traffic that negative...
