Abstract:

Based on invalid probability of storage nodes, a model is provided to evaluate the reliability of a given distributed information storage system. In this model, the reliability of a storage system is affected by 4 factors: time, invalidate probability of storage nodes, data distribution algorithm and storage policy. Such a model could partly solve the reliability problem in the system designing phase, and make data service more reliable.

Key words: access structure, failure probability, distributed storage
