= Concept of Distributed FS =
 * DFS Classification (M, Satyanarayanan from the perspective of FS design & computing model can be classified into 4 levels)
  * Single user single process, example:IBM PC-DOS & Apale Macintosh
  * Single user multi-processes, example:OS/2 
  * Multi-users share data, example:Unix is the archetype of a timesharing FS
  * Multi-user physically dispersed in a network of autonomous computers share in the use of a common FS, example:Distributed FS

= History of DFS =   
 * 1980-1990
  * example: NFS, AFS(Andrew FS)
 * 1990-1995
  * example: xFS, Tiger Shark, Petal Frangipani, SFS(Science FS)
 * 1995-2000
  * example: GFS, GPFS, DiFFS, CXFS, HighRoad, qFS, XNFS
 * 2000~
  * PanFS, Lustre
