This paper presents a new distributed disk-array architecture for achieving high I/O performance in scalable cluster computing. In a serverless cluster of computers, all distribute...
Device drivers typically execute in supervisor mode and thus must be fully trusted. This paper describes how to move them out of the trusted computing base, by running them withou...
Systems that use or serve multimedia data require timely access to data on hard drives. To ensure adequate performance users must either prevent overload of disk resources, or use...
