Abstract
A distributed algorithm for dynamic data replication of an object in a distributed system is presented. The algorithm changes the number of replicas and their location in the distributed system to optimize the amount of communication. The algorithm dynamically adapts the replication scheme of an object to the pattern of read-write requests in the distributed system. It is shown that the cost of the algorithm is within a constant factor of the lower bound
