A number of recent technological trends have made data intensive applications such as continuous media (audio and video) servers a reality. These servers store and retrieve a larg...
In a serverless cluster of PCs or workstations, the cluster must allow remote file accesses or parallel I/O directly performed over disks distributed to all client nodes. We intro...
This paper presents a strong security scheme for network-attached storage (NAS) that is based on capability and uses a key distribution scheme to keep network-attached storage fro...
We present new methods to extend data reliability of disks in RAID systems for applications like long term data archival. The proposed solutions extend existing algorithms to detec...
