As computing breaches petascale limits both in processor performance and storage capacity, the only way that current and future gains in performance can be achieved is by increasi...
In this paper, we consider the problem of file synchronization when a mobile host shares files with a backbone file server in a network file system. Several diff schemes have been...
The need to conduct and manage large sets of experiments for scientific applications dramatically increased over the last decade. However, there is still very little tool support ...
The Smoke and Mirrors File System (SMFS) mirrors files at geographically remote datacenter locations with negligible impact on file system performance at the primary site, and min...
