File Systems: Coda
n Application transparent extensions of client and server
changes in the cache manager of a client
applications use cache replicates of files
extensive, transparent collection of data in advance for possible future use
(„Hoarding“)
n Consistency
system keeps a record of changes in files and compares files after
reconnection
if different users have changed the same file a manual reintegration of the
file into the system is necessary
optimistic approach, coarse grained (file size)
