I-Shadow: A Wide Area File Service Using Autonomous Disks
Jun Miyazaki, Tsutomu Fujiwara, Shunsuke Uemura · 2014
In this paper, we propose the architecture of a wide area file service infrastructure, called I-Shadow. I-Shadow can provide both short delay file access and dependable file management for mobile users by using a set of active rules. We also show that average file access time of I-Shadow is shorter than that of cache based Coda distributed file system through a simulation study.
