To meet enterprise and grand challenge-scale performance and interoperability requirements, a group of engineers—initially ad-hoc but now integrated into the IETF—is designing...
We present a genetic algorithm for tackling a file assignment problem for a large-scale video-on-demand system. The file assignment problem is to find the optimal replication and a...

We describe a video indexing system that aims at indexing large video files in relation to the presence of similar faces. The detection of near-frontal view faces is done with a c...
Farsite is a secure, scalable file system that logically functions as a centralized file server but is physically distributed among a set of untrusted computers. Farsite provides ...

This paper describes a system that supports high availability of data, until the data should be expunged, at which time it is impossible to recover the data. This design supports ...
