Data Replication Vs. Erasure codes.
Radio Resource Management Scheme for WLAN
Efficient and Robust Data Paths
Providing an efficient data path between the
client and the remote storage device to
achieve:
• Low latency.
• High throughput.
• Supporting different applications.

Analytical Modeling.
{ traffic type, distance effect, PER, # of competing
stations, etc.}
An Empirical (Measurement-based) Simulation.
Data Replication
When a decision to replicate is made , where is the replicated
object located?
Main Challenge is that future demand is an unknown.
Formulating the object replication & positioning problem as a
Stochastic network resource allocation problem.
Different terms in the cost Function:
Cross-correlation between observed demand for the objects and that of
other objects with a known demand load & location history.
Delay in accessing the object based on multi-queue models.
Allowing various priorities to be assigned to objects.
Data Replication
Selecting the best replica from a set of replicas.
• Network distance (hop counts, round-trip time, bandwidth)
• Device load in delivering the best object to the client.
• Different object types may also require different performance
metrics: Multimedia objects vs. text objects.
Erasure-resilient system Vs. Replication system.
Quantitative Comparison:
•
•
Time to failure.
Storage & Bandwidth requirements.
Replication strategies for compound objects such as
MPEG-21 objects.
