In this paper, we argue that the reliability of large-scale storage systems can be significantly improved by using better reliability metrics and more efficient policies for rec...
Abstract—We introduce a new class of exact MinimumBandwidth Regenerating (MBR) codes for distributed storage systems, characterized by a low-complexity uncoded repair process tha...
We have designed a stackable file system called Redundant Array of Independent Filesystems (RAIF). It combines the data survivability properties and performance benefits of trad...
Our study of a large set of scientific applications over the past three years indicates that the processing for multidimensional datasets is often highly stylized. The basic proce...

In this paper we present a quantitative study of data survival in peer to peer storage systems. We first recall two main redundancy mechanisms: replication and erasure codes, whic...
