| Abstract | The purpose of developing a file server is to provide a
shared filing system utility for different users. File sharing is
the foundation of any multi- user software . In the early days of
personal computers, file sharing was largely clone in application
software by default resulting in almost total lack of
standardization . Currently disk and network operating systems are
right fully assuming this responsibility. Today LAN ' s provide
varying selection of network utility functions for user and
network managers . These functions may be built into the network
operating system.
In t his research study a file server has been designed for
functioning in a LAN environment. The file server has been
considered as a layered structure and functions of each layer
specified. Algorithm shave been developed to perform the
t11nctions of each of t he layers. The file system considered for
the design resembles, UNIX file structure. Various algorithms
along with appropriate data structure have been proposed to
provide a complete design methodology for a file server. |
