abstract - one of the important problems in grid environments is data replication in grid sites. reliability and availability of data replication in some cases is considered low. to separate sites with high reliability and high availability of sites with low availability and low reliability, clustering can be used. in this study, the data grid dynamically evaluate and predict the condition of t...

Abstract: A Data Grid connects a collection of geographically distributed computational and storage resources that enables users to share data and other resources. Data replication, a technique much discussed by Data Grid researchers in recent years creates multiple copies of file and places them in various locations to shorten file access times. In this paper, a dynamic data replication strate...

Categories are not invariant. This paper attempts to explore the dynamic nature of semantic category, in particular, that of fashion language, based on the cognitive theory of Dawkins’ memetics, a new theory of cultural evolution. Semantic attributes of linguistic memes decrease or proliferate in replication and spreading, which involves a dynamic development of semantic category. More specific...

In data grid, using reservation is accepted to provide scheduling and service quality. Users need to have an access to the stored data in geographical environment, which can be solved by using replication, and an action taken to reach certainty. As a result, users are directed toward the nearest version to access information. The most important point is to know in which sites and distributed sy...

data grids support access to widely distributed storage for large numbers of users accessing potentially many files. to enhance access time, replication at nearby sites may be used. data replication, a technique much investigated bydata grid researchers in past years creates multiple replicas offile and places them in conventional locations to shorten fileaccess times. one of the problems in da...

The increased using of the Internet and its accelerated growth leads to reduced network bandwidth and the capacity of servers; therefore, the quality of Internet services is unacceptable for users while the efficient and effective delivery of content on the web has an important role to play in improving performance. Content distribution networks were introduced to address this issue. Replicatin...

Large-scale data management is a critical problem in a distributed system such as cloud,P2P system, World Wide Web (WWW), and Data Grid. One of the effective solutions is data replicationtechnique, which efficiently reduces the cost of communication and improves the data reliability andresponse time. Various replication methods can be proposed depending on when, where, and howreplicas are gener...

This thesis examines the provision of on-demand multimedia streaming services using clusters of commodity PCs. In the proposed HammerHead multimedia server cluster architecture, a dynamic content replication policy is used to assign non-disjoint subsets of the presentations in a multimedia archive to cluster nodes. Replicas of selected presentations can be created on more than one node to achie...
