About CRSS

CRSS conducts research in a wide range of storage-related fields, including archival storage, scalable distributed indexing and non-hierarchical file systems, large-scale distributed storage systems, file systems for next-generation storage devices, and data deduplication. We also have particular focus in cross-cutting issues such as security and reliability in file and storage systems. While CRSS was established in 2013, it inherits a long history of advanced storage research from the Storage Systems Research Center in the Jack Baskin School of Engineering
