We have designed a stackable file system called Redundant Array of Independent Filesystems (RAIF). It combines the data survivability properties and performance benefits of trad...
In this paper, starting from the limitations and constrains of traditional human learning approaches, we outline new suitable approaches to education and training in future knowle...

Addressing the long term preservation issues associated with scientific data is a complex challenge compounded by: the scale and multidisciplinary nature of the problem; the wide ...
The ability to quickly predict the throughput of a TCP transfer between a client and a server, or between peers, has wide application in scientific computing and commercial compu...
Parallel machines are typically space shared, or time shared such that only one application executes on a group of nodes at any given time. It is generally assumed that executing ...
This paper proposes a View-Oriented Update Protocol with Integrated Diff for efficient implementation of a View-based Consistency model which supports a novel View-Oriented Paral...
Performance management of clusters and Grids poses many challenges. Sharing large distributed sets of resources can provide efficiencies, but it also introduces complexity in ter...
Large grid installations require global access to massive data stores. Parallel file systems give high throughput within a LAN, but cross-site data transfers lack seamless integra...
