Recently, high-energy consumption has become a serious concern for both storage servers and data centers. Recent research studies have utilized the short transition times of multis...
A new RAID-x (redundant array of inexpensive disks at level x) architecture is presented for distributed I/O processing on a serverless cluster of computers. The RAID-x architectu...
As storage systems scale to thousands of disks, data distribution and load balancing become increasingly important. We present an algorithm for allocating data objects to disks as...
The recent discovery of so-called “mirror-neurons” in monkeys and a corresponding mirroring “system” in humans has provoked wide endorsement of the claim that humans under...
Reliability and availability are increasingly important in large-scale storage systems built from thousands of individual storage devices. Large systems must survive the failure o...
