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 propose a modified parallel virtual file system that provides snapshot functionality. Because typical file systems are exposed to various failures, taking a s...
Resource management constitutes an important infrastructural component of a computational grid environment. The aim of grid resource management is to efficiently schedule applicat...
