Building a Cloud File System

Cloud file systems must address challenges that are not addressed by traditional network or distributed file systems . These challenges mostly revolve around isolation, identity, and privacy, but also include features such as adaptability to frequent changes in demand for capacity or capability . In this article, I’ll elaborate on some of these challenges and describe how one project, CloudFS, ...

Mouse model for Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia that uses natural transmission to initiate infection.

Animal models for Pneumocystis carinii, for the most part, have been limited to immunosuppressed rats and ferrets, while a dependable mouse model has been more difficult to develop. A P. carinii mouse model has now been established with several strains of mice, including C3Heb/FeJ, C3HeN, BALB/c, DBA/2N, and BALB/c nu/nu (athymic). In lieu of using invasive methods for initiating P. carinii inf...

SCFS: A Shared Cloud-backed File System

Despite of their rising popularity, current cloud storage services and cloud-backed storage systems still have some limitations related to reliability, durability assurances and inefficient file sharing. We present SCFS, a cloud-backed file system that addresses these issues and provides strong consistency and near-POSIX semantics on top of eventually-consistent cloud storage services. SCFS pro...

Finding File Fragments in the Cloud

As the use – and abuse – of cloud computing increases, it becomes necessary to conduct forensic analyses of cloud computing systems. This paper evaluates the feasibility of performing a digital forensic investigation on a cloud computing system. Specifically, experiments were conducted on the Nimbula on-site cloud operating system to determine if meaningful information can be extracted from a c...
