Data-sharing scientific communities use storage systems as distributed data stores by replicating content. In such highly replicated environments, a particular dataset can reside ...
The Mariposa distributed data manager uses an economic model for managing the allocation of both storage objects and queries to servers. In this paper, we present extensions to th...
