In 1986 Jim Gray published his landmark study of the causes of failures of Tandem systems and the techniques Tandem used to prevent such failures [6]. Seventeen years later, Inter...

Abstract—In distributed storage systems built using commodity hardware, it is necessary to store multiple replicas of every data chunk in order to ensure system reliability. In s...
We propose increasing the survivability of data stored in two-dimensional RAID arrays by letting these arrays reorganize themselves whenever they detect a disk failure. This reorg...
Data reliability of distributed brick storage systems critically depends on the replica placement policy, and the two governing forces are repair speed and sensitivity to multiple...
This paper describes an investigation of using interactive sonification (non-speech sound) to present geo-referenced statistical data to vision-impaired users for problem solving ...
