Disk arrays (RAID) have been proposed as a possible approach to solving the emerging I/O bottleneck problem. The performance of a RAID system when all disks are operational and th...
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...
Fault tolerance requirements for near term disk array storage systems are analyzed. The excellent reliability provided by RAID Level 5 data organization is seen to be insu cient f...
Distributed storage systems apply erasure-tolerant codes to guarantee reliable access to data despite failures of storage resources. While many codes can be mapped to XOR operatio...
