  Abstract

The data grid computing provides geographically distributed storage resources to solve computational problems with large-scale data. Unlike cache replacement policies in virtual memory or web-caching replacement, an optimal file replacement policy for data grids is the one of the important problems by the fact that file size is very large. The traditional file replacement policies such as LRU(Least Recently Used), LCB-K(Least Cost Beneficial based on K), EBR(Economic-based cache replacement), LVCT(Least Value-based on Caching Time) have the problem that they have to predict requests or need additional resources to file replacement. To solve theses problems, this paper propose SBR-k(Sized-based replacement-k) that replaces files based on file size. The results of the simulation show that the proposed policy performs better than traditional policies.
