In this chapter we take a look at the application of replication techniques for building scalable distributed systems. Unlike using replication for attaining dependability, replica...
In the present paper, we study the most frequent data placement schemes, i.e., the organ-pipe and camel arrangements, in a mirrored disk system which supports cylinder replication...
Workstations typically depend on remote servers accessed over a network for such services as mail, printing, storing files, booting, and time. The availability of these remote ser...

A model was introduced in [Fraga97] for integrating replication techniques in heterogeneous systems. The model adopts a reflective structure based on the meta-object approach [10]...

Replication is an area of interest to both distributed systems and databases. The solutions developed from these two perspectives are conceptually similar but differ in many aspec...
—Web caching and replication techniques increase accessibility of Web contents and reduce Internet bandwidth requirements. In this paper, we are considering the replica placement...
