Various virtual structures on single file system

TL;DR

This paper introduces a novel method for constructing flexible hierarchical file system structures that enable multiple tree-like configurations on the same set of files, enhancing organizational versatility.

Contribution

It presents a new approach to building multi-attribute, multi-structure file systems, expanding beyond traditional single-structure methods.

Findings

Allows creating various hierarchical structures on the same files

Enables attribute-based organization of file systems

Provides a flexible framework for file management

Abstract

The article provides a new approach to creating hierarchical structure of file system. First, it gives overview of the existing ways of storing files in current operating systems. Second, it describes the new way of building structures of a file system. This approach allows creating various structures by different attributes on the same set of files using multiple tree-like structures.
