Existing file access predictors keep track of previous file access patterns and rely on a single heuristic to predict which of the previous successors to the file being currently ...
The initial iSCSI products provide a means to connect FC SAN islands across IP networks. This paper describes the implementation of an IP-SAN where the disk subsystem is a virtual...

Third-party transfer is a data transfer mechanism where the party initiating the transfer is neither the source nor the sink for the data. In this paper, we present a scheme for s...
zFS is a research project aimed at building a decentralized file system that distributes all aspects of file and storage management over a set of cooperating machines interconne...
Data grids federate storage resources. They provide a logical name space that can be used to register digital entities, a storage repository ion for manipulating data, and a high ...
