For storage and recovery requirements on large-scale seismic waveform data of the
National Earthquake Data Backup Center (NEDBC), a distributed cluster processing model …

Hypoexponential servers are commonly seen in today's computer and communication
networks whereby incoming packets are processed by the network server in multiple stages …

Abstract Replication of Data Blocks is one of the main technologies on which Storage
Systems in Cloud Computing and Big Data Applications are based. With the heterogeneity …

The efficiency of storage systems is a key factor to ensure sustainability in data centers
devoted to provide cloud services. A proper management of storage infrastructures can …

This paper studies the performance of Peer-to-Peer storage and backup systems (P2PSS).
These systems are based on three pillars: data fragmentation and dissemination among the …

The amount of digital data produced by users, such as photos, videos, and digital
documents, has grown tremendously over the last decade. These data are very valuable …

This paper studies the performance of Peer-to-Peer Storage Systems (P2PSS) in terms of
data lifetime and availability. Two schemes for recovering lost data are modeled through …

Big Data applications provide new, disruptive tools to advance our knowledge about the
mechanisms that characterize complex aspects of reality. Be it a high energy physics …

The peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm have emerged as a cheap, scalable, self-repairing and
fault-tolerant storage solution. This solution relies on erasure codes to generate additional …

This thesis characterizes the performance of peer-to-peer storage systems in terms of the
delivered data lifetime and data availability. Two schemes for recovering lost data are …
