            Abstract : 
This paper presents an adaptive dynamic file migration algorithm in distributed systems on the CSMA/CD local area network. In our approach, we employed learning automata with several internal states and a file is migrated to the destination processor when it is in the right boundary state; and file migration with low computational complexity is done in distributed manner. Analytical and simulation results show that our algorithm is very well-suited for local area network environments
