Dynamic single node failure recovery in distributed storage systems by Itani, M.

“…The third extension is addressed by implementing variable fractional repetition codes which is shown to achieve significant cost reduction. The contributions of the paper are four fold: (i) generating an optimized block distribution scheme among the nodes of a given data center for fixed and variable size blocks; (ii) optimization of storage allocation under dynamic environments with data block arrivals; (iii) optimization of storage allocation with newly added storage nodes; and (iv) generating an effective block distribution scheme among the nodes by accounting for varying priorities among data blocks. …”

Mixed precision iterative refinement with adaptive precision sparse approximate inverse preconditioning by Noaman Khan (19810050)

“…We then analyze the conditions for the convergence of BSPAI-GMRES-IR, and determine settings under which BSPAI-GMRES-IR will produce similar backward and forward errors as the existing SPAI-GMRES-IR method, the latter of which does not use adaptive precision in preconditioning. Our numerical experiments show that this approach can potentially lead to a reduction in the cost of storing and applying sparse approximate inverse preconditioners, although a significant reduction in cost may comes at the expense of increasing the number of GMRES iterations required for convergence.…”
