Otherwise titled: A day of reading about Filesystems.<\/p>\n
I’m managing to continually find stuff I haven’t already read. I think this is a good thing. I’m clearly now going to have to do some more research into how RDMBS do things.<\/p>\n
The idea of Snapshots sound interesting, and may prove an interesting way to help avoid having to do journalling. I’ve been thinking that journalling could be a real issue if we allow large transations, so maybe a snapshot like idea could be good. Although, this could limit the number of transactions we work on concurrently if it’s implemented the WAFL way.<\/p>\n
So looking at how RDBMS do concurrent transactions would be useful. I guess we do have the advantage of having PostgreSQL and MySQL code to peer at but I do hope there are some nice papers out there to read :)<\/p>\n
I’ve collected a large array of useful papers to read. I’m going to try and wade through them sometime soon, but will have to do more coursework soon.<\/p>\n
I’m thinking tomorrow might contain a bit of coursework – need to do more POVRAY\/OpenGL stuff as well as study more of the Pattern Recognition stuff. Oh, and look at the Info Security assignment & exercise for this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
