Abstract
The authors reviewed the pros and cons of the common file system and numerous existing and planned systems. Their conclusion is that the common file system is a valuable resource with many strengths that should be preserved for the future. A set of recommendations for changes and additions that may allow the common file systems to continue to meet data-storage needs in both the short and long term is presented. The recommendations for 1990-2 support the transition to Unix on supercomputers and support high-performance networking. The recommendations for 1992-5 support the transition to a Unix-type file system that provides a significant level of file-allocation transparency. For 1995-2000, the recommendations are necessarily less precise but support the notion of standard security, transparent file systems, and faster networking. >
