The problem of provisioning servers in a cluster infrastructure includes the issues of coordinating access and sharing of physical resources, loading servers with the appropriate ...
A cost-effective approach to building up scalable Videoon-Demand (VoD) servers is to couple a number of VoD servers together in a cluster. In this article, we study a crucial vide...
An efficient and distributed scheme for file mapping or file lookup scheme is critical in decentralizing metadata management within a group of metadata servers. This paper present...
Traditionally, distributed Web servers have used two strategies for allocating files on server nodes: full replication and full distribution. While full replication provides a high...
We develop an adaptive load distribution protocol for logical volume I/O workload in clustered storage systems. It exploits data redundancy among decentralized storage servers to ...
