Abstract—Federated systems have recently attracted much attention because they allow loosely coupled organizations to share resources for common benefits. However, discovering r...
Disk performance is increasingly limited by its head positioning latencies, i.e., seek time and rotational delay. To reduce the head positioning latencies, we propose a novel tech...
Data replication is a key issue in a Data Grid and can be managed in different ways and at different levels of granularity: for example, at the file level or object level. In the ...
Concurrency control is a core component in optimistic replication systems. To detect concurrent updates, the system associates each replicated object with metadata, such as, versi...
High availability in peer-to-peer DHTs requires data redundancy. This paper takes user download behavior into account to evaluate redundancy schemes in data storage and share syste...
