The OceanStore ProjectOpen Research Projects for Undergraduates and Graduates
We always looking for smart, highly-motivated students to contribute to the design, implementation, and benchmarking of the OceanStore system. Below is a list of possible OceanStore-related projects that are appropriate for both undergraduates and graduate students. Of course, this is just a small sample of what is possible, so be sure to talk to our project members about any ideas you might have. Please note: these projects are for U. C. Berkeley students only, and are not open to the general public.
Data Repair (Fall 2001) Traditional archival media are rapidly being replaced with digital repositories. This has generated a need for long-term, digital archival storage. OceanStore has describe the architecture of a global-scale, distributed storage infrastructure that is self-repairing and resilient to faults and malicious attacks. This infrastructure employs erasure-coding to enhance durability, coupled with mechanisms for location-independent routing, introspective failure analysis, and automatic repair. The result is archival storage that has the potential to preserve information indefinitely.

implement the part or all of the distributed self-repairing mechanism described in The OceanStore Archive: Goals, Structures, and Self-Repair , measure and interpret effectiveness of the mechanisms, optionally, improve the general theoretical results.
This project involves a significant amount of programming. Java programming skills are required.Contact: Hakim Weatherspoon (hweather@cs)
