摘要： A logical file system is described that distributes copies of files across various different physical storage resources yet provides a consistent view to the user of his or her data, regardless of which machine the user is accessing the files from, and even when the user's computer is offline. The distributed file system uses smart data redundancy to enable a virtually infinite amount of storage as long as additional storage resources are made available to the distributed file system. The result is a reliable storage system that does not necessarily tie the user's data to the user's particular computer. Instead, the user's data is associated with the user—for life—or for however long the user would like the data to be maintained, regardless of whether the user's computer or data storage components are replaced or destroyed.

摘要： A method and system for regulating tasks of background processes so as to reduce interference with foreground processes. The progress rate of a background task (e.g., amount of work performed per unit time) is measured and evaluated against a target amount. If the progress rate appears degraded, the background task is suspended for a computed time interval so as to back off from its interference with a foreground process. Each time the progress rate appears degraded, the time interval is exponentially increased from its previous value up to a maximum, however if the performance appears normal, the time interval is reset to a minimum. Evaluation of the work is statistically based so as to eliminate variations in measurements, and automatic calibration of the target amount is provided, as is a mechanism for prioritizing multiple background tasks.

摘要： Cryptographic protocols and methods of employing the same are described. The described protocols advantageously enable two or more identical encryptable objects that are coded for encryption with different keys to be identified as identical without access to either the unencrypted objects or the keys that are used in the encryption process. Additionally, the protocols enable two or more identical encryptable objects to be processed with different encryption keys, yet be stored in a manner so that the total required storage space is proportional to the space that is required to store a single encryptable object, plus a constant amount for each distinct encryption key. In various embodiments, the encryptable objects comprise files and the cryptographic protocols enable encrypted files to be used in connection with single instance store (SIS) systems.

摘要： A file format for a serverless distributed file system is composed of two parts: a primary data stream and a metadata stream. The data stream contains a file that is divided into multiple blocks. Each block is encrypted using a hash of the block as the encryption key. The metadata stream contains a header, a structure for indexing the encrypted blocks in the primary data stream, and some user information. The indexing structure defines leaf nodes for each of the blocks. Each leaf node consists of an access value used for decryption of the associated block and a verification value used to verify the encrypted block independently of other blocks. In one implementation, the access value is formed by hashing the file block and encrypting the resultant hash value using a randomly generated key. The key is then encrypted using the user's key as the encryption key. The verification value is formed by hashing the associated encrypted block using a one-way hash function. The file format supports verification of individual file blocks without knowledge of the randomly generated key or any user keys. To verify a block of the file, the file system traverses the tree to the appropriate leaf node associated with a target block to be verified. The file system hashes the target block and if the hash matches the access value contained in the leaf node, the block is authentic.

摘要： Potentially identical objects (such as files) across multiple computers are located. In one embodiment, a computer generates object information for an object stored on the computer. The object information can be generated in a variety of manners (e.g., based on hashing the object, based on characteristics of the object, and so forth). The object information is then transferred to one or more database server computers, where the object information can be compared to object information from other computers to determine whether the object is potentially identical to another object on one of the other computers.

摘要： A continuous media file server system has a controller connected to multiple data servers. Each data server supports at least one storage disk. Data files are distributed across the data servers so that data blocks of the data files are stored on each of the storage disks. The data files have different data transmission rates at which they are served over a network to clients in the form of data streams. A scheduling unit maintains a network schedule that provides a relative ordering of transmission times of requested data streams. The transmission times indicate when the data servers are to transmit corresponding data blocks of the requested data files over the network to stream the data to clients. The block play times for all data files have a fixed duration, with the size of the data blocks from data file to data file varying according to the data transmission rates of the files. When a transmission time for a data file block approaches, the scheduling unit instructs the appropriate data server to read a data block for that data file from the disk prior to the transmission time in the network schedule. In this manner, disk reads are scheduled implicitly according to the network schedule. The data is temporarily stored in buffer memory, and later transmitted over the network. When a request for a new data stream is received, the scheduling unit evaluates whether the new data stream can be inserted into the network schedule without overburdening the data servers' ability to serve the existing data streams on the network schedule.
