%0 Journal Article %T Optimal Replica Placement in Tree Networks with QoS and Bandwidth Constraints and the Closest Allocation Policy %A Veronika Rehn-Sonigo %J Computer Science %D 2007 %I arXiv %X This paper deals with the replica placement problem on fully homogeneous tree networks known as the Replica Placement optimization problem. The client requests are known beforehand, while the number and location of the servers are to be determined. We investigate the latter problem using the Closest access policy when adding QoS and bandwidth constraints. We propose an optimal algorithm in two passes using dynamic programming. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0706.3350v3
