Abstract

We propose a very fast file sharing facility "data reservoir", which can transfer huge data files between far distant places, and can be used as an ordinary NFS server in a local area network. We use a low-level protocol and a hierarchical disk striping technique. We show the experimental results of a prototype model, which transfers a single huge data file with nearly 4 Gbps speed
