Abstract
An introduction to my current research. I talk about my Master's
Thesis, which I did at the University of California, Riverside, as
well as a follow-up research project at the National Science
Foundation.
My thesis deals with the design and implementation of a flexible
framework for replication and its integration into the Network
File System version 4 (NFSv4). The framework, which is the first of its
kind, is applicable to any networked application and allows for much
easier integration of virtually any replication strategy than ever
before. As it is also a replication solution for NFSv4, it makes
replicated NFS available to many specialized environments.
The NSF research is a file system trace study about file mutability, an
important aspect especially to replicated and auditing file systems that
has not been studied yet. It also documents the current state of the
CS experimental research community by examining 23 previous studies and
urges for a departure towards bigger study populations and more care on
the release of valuable research data.
