Today, several data-storage systems allow applications to create and manage custom metadata to improve data search and navigability in large-scale storage systems. Our thesis is t...
Abstract. A fault tolerant parallel virtual file system is designed and implemented to provide high I/O performance and high reliability. A queuing model is used to analyze in deta...
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...
