Serializing and Transporting LiFS Metadata
نویسنده
چکیده
The richer metadata constructs of attributed links make approaches for data transfer between conventional file systems not suitable for LiFS. In this paper I will describe two approaches to addressing this need. The first involves serializing LiFS metadata and transporting over TCP. The second sends the metadata in UDP packets. That approach introduces some additional caveats that I address. I implemented versions of each in Java for testing purposes. My evaluation shown that the TCP based version ran 10 to 20 times faster than UDP, but I did find some interesting differences that made the study worthwhile.

LiFS: An Attribute-Rich File System for Storage Class Memories
As the number and variety of files stored and accessed by a typical user has dramatically increased, existing file system structures have begun to fail as a mechanism for managing all of the information contained in those files. Many applications—email clients, multimedia management applications, and desktop search engines are examples— have been forced to develop their own richer metadata infr...
متن کاملExtended File System Metadata Management with Relational Databases
Modern file systems need to handle extended metadata. Existing file systems are not equipped to handle managing metadata in the amount of files and the diversity of files that these file systems are now supporting. Users need better searching and querying capabilities. Metadata within files still remain applicationand file format-specific and is often proprietary, which makes searching difficul...
متن کاملUse of the Linking File System to Aid the Study of Software Evolution
This paper presents the use of the Linking File System as infrastructure for software evolution research. The addition of richer metadata in links and attributes makes LiFS an alternative to conventional approaches to storage for that purpose. We pursue our approach through the instrumentation of Kenyon and a case study that involves the correlation of Bugzilla data and CVS histories. Further i...

متن کاملFluorescence lifetime spectroscopy for guided therapy of brain tumors.
This study evaluates the potential of time-resolved laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TR-LIFS) as intra-operative tool for the delineation of brain tumor from normal brain. Forty two patients undergoing glioma (WHO grade I-IV) surgery were enrolled in this study. A TR-LIFS prototype apparatus (gated detection, fast digitizer) was used to induce in-vivo fluorescence using a pulsed N2 lase...
