Survey: Fault Tolerance in Distributed File System - Mohammed

• Abstract
• Introductions
  • About fault tolerance in any distributed system. Comparison between different file systems.
  • Whats more suitable for Mobile based systems.
  • Why satisfaction high for fault tolerance is one of the main issues for DFS's ?
• Replication and fault tolerance
  • What is the Replica and Placement policy? What is the synchronization? What is its benefit?

  - Synchronous Method
  - Asynchronous Method
  - Semi-Asynchronous Method

• Cache consistency and fault tolerance
  • What is the cache? What is its benefit? Cache consistency?

 - Write only Read Many (WORM)
 - Transactional Locking - Read and write locks
 - Leasing

• Example DFS mentioned in the paper
  • Google File Systems
  • HDFS
  • MOOSEFS
  • iRODS
  • GlusterFS
  • Lustre
  • Ceph
  • PARADISE for mobile
• Conclusion

Survey on Control Plane Frameworks for Software Defined Networking - Sijo

• Introduction
  • Traditional Networks - Control Plane and Forwarding Plane
  • Software Defined Networking

- Proposes decoupling of layers into independent layers
- Network entities or nodes are specialized elements which does the forwarding 
- Control applications do not need to worry about installation of the underlying network

• Theme, Argument Outline

- Look at various control frameworks proposed

• Controller Platforms

- Centralized and Distributed approaches
- Identify the need to use in controller platforms
- For centralized it started with NOX - Maestro - Beacon - Floodlight - POX - OpenDayLight
- For Distributed : ONIX - Hyperflow - YANC - ONOS
- Leverage parallel processing capabilities

• In detail about two systems:
  • ONIX
  • ONOS
