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...
This paper presents a scalable and adaptive decentralized metadata lookup scheme for ultra large-scale file systems (≥ Petabytes or even Exabytes). Our scheme logically organiz...

Many scientific applications manipulate large amount of data and, therefore, are parallelized on high-performance computing systems to take advantage of their computational power a...
Current projects that automate the collection of provenance information use a centralized architecture for managing the resulting metadata - that is, provenance is gathered at rem...
