Abstract

Supporting availability, integrity, and confidentiality of data is crucial for parallel computer systems. The parallel computer systems require to encode and distribute data over multiple storage nodes to survive failures and malicious attacks. Information Dispersal Scheme(IDS) is one of the most efficient schemes allowing high availability and security with reasonable overhead. In this paper we propose an algorithm determining an optimal IDS in terms of availability.
