`Pages: 110123
`doi>10.1145/319151.319159
`Full text:
`
`Modern file systems associate the deletion of a file with the immediate release of storage, and file writes with the irrevocable change of file contents.
`We argue that this behavior is a relic of the past, when disk storage was a scarce resource. Today, ... expand
`

`David Mazières, Michael Kaminsky, M. Frans Kaashoek, Emmett Witchel
`Pages: 124139
`doi>10.1145/319151.319160
`Full text:
`
`No secure network file system has ever grown to span the Internet. Existing systems all lack adequate key management for security at a global
`scale. Given the diversity of the Internet, any particular mechanism a file system employs to manage keys will ... expand
