Many industries experience an explosion in digital content. This explosion of electronic documents, along with new regulations and document retention rules, sets new requirements f...
Making backup is so cumbersome and expensive that individuals hardly ever backup their data and companies usually duplicate their data into a secondary server. This paper proposes...
In the emerging next-generation transport networks, called intelligent optical transport networks, DWDM-based optical components like add-drop multiplexers and optical cross conne...
As networks grow in size and complexity, both the probability and the impact of failures increase. The pre-allocated backup bandwidth, which has been widely investigated in the lit...
Abstract. We study efficient algorithms for establishing reliable connections with bandwidth guarantees in communication networks. In the normal mode of operation, each connection ...
A consistent backup, preserving data integrity across files in a file system, is of utmost importance for the purpose of correctness and minimizing system downtime during the proc...
Periodic data backup is a system administration requirement that has changed as wireless machines have altered the fundamental structure of networks. These changes necessitate a c...

Under the hypothesis of single failures in the network, some backup paths cannot be active at the same time because they protect against the failure of different components. Hence...
