Abstract

PCFS (Autonomous and Parallel Compressed File System) is a file system that supports fast autonomous compression at high compression rates. It is designed as a virtual layer inserted over existing file system, compressing and decompressing data by intercepting kernel calls. The system achieves enhanced compression ratio by combining two compression techniques. Speed is attained by performing the two compression techniques in parallel. Experimental results indicate good performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
