  • Abstract
    Desirable characteristics for future massive storage systems in the 1012- to 1015-bit range are projected for systems operating in a shared storage environment. Characteristics for capacity, cost, access, and reliability, as deemed important to the user of such systems are listed. Emphasis is placed on the operation of large capacity storages as central data banks serving a number of remotely located dissimilar computer systems.
