Abstract: A comprehensive versioning file system creates and retains a new file version for every WRITE or other modification request. The resulting history of file modifications provides a detailed view to tools and administrators seeking to investigate a suspect system state. Conventional versioning systems do not efficiently record the many prior versions that result. In particular, the versioned metadata they keep consumes almost as much space as the versioned data. This paper examines two... (Update)

.... of client compromises [34] Further, it can be implemented with minimal performance cost ( 34] and capacity demand ( [33]. The consistency semantic for which we strive is a variation of linearizability [13] that permits read operations to abort with no return...

...chose this interface for modularity reason, and it proves to be quite efficient too. For metadata logging, it s as efficient as the CVFS [8]. The audit log for tracking dependency incurs less than 5 of runtime overhead. Just as in Venti [16] and S4 [12] our experiences also...
