PhD Thesis

I defended my thesis 4th of October 2004 (exactly 5 years, after I arrived to paris, to pursue graduate studies and it was 4th of October 1999 :). My thesis project was the design and implementation of LH*RS: a Highly Available Scalable and Distributed Data Structure, which uses Reed Solomon codes to compute parity data.
