File sharing is a common basic requirement when the users work on a particular domain or area of interest. We have designed and implemented an application that utilizes the concepts of distributed computing and provides with the necessary functionality of remote file sharing and accessing where the files of interest are distributed across the network but the users have an illusion of a centralized file system and access them accordingly. The overall focus is on location and access transparency along with the utilization of a fault tolerance mechanism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
