With the Distributed File System Replication component, DFS-R, as the central theme, we present selected protocol problems and validation methods encountered during design and deve...
—Peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing systems are becoming increasingly popular due to their flexibility and scalability. We propose a new model to design file replication schemes ...
This work presents a new comparison-based diagnosis model and a new algorithm, called Hi-Dif, based on this model. The algorithm is used for checking the integrity of systems with...
Ficus is a replicated general ling environment for Unix intended to scale to very large nationwide networks. The system employs an optimistic one copy availability" model in ...
