We are investigating strategies for using replication to design and implement highly reliable peer-to-peer systems. In particular, we are comparing the use of whole object and blo...

The distributed data storage on unreliable devices, connected by a short-range radio network is analyzed. Failing devices incur loss of data. To prevent the loss, the data is spli...
To use multiple memory banks in parallel is a nature approach to boost the performance of flash-memory storage systems. However, realistic data-access localities unevenly load eac...
In distributed storage systems that use coding, the issue of minimizing the communication required to rebuild a storage node after a failure arises. We consider the problem of repa...

This paper presents a new challenge—verifying that a remote server is storing a file in a fault-tolerant manner, i.e., such that it can survive hard-drive failures. We describe...
