  abstract =     "The Spiralog file system uses a log-structured,
                 on-disk format inspired by the Sprite log-structured
                 file system (LFS) from the University of California,
                 Berkeley. Log-structured file systems promise a number
                 of performance and functional benefits over
                 conventional, update-in-place file systems, such as the
                 Files-11 file system developed for the OpenVMS
                 operating system or the FFS file system on the UNIX
                 operating system. The Spiralog server combines
                 log-structured technology with more traditional B-tree
                 technology to provide a general server abstraction. The
                 B-tree mapping mechanism uses write-ahead logging to
                 give stability and recoverability guarantees. By
                 combining write-ahead logging with a log-structured,
                 on-disk format, the Spiralog server merges file system
                 data and recovery log records into a single, sequential
                 write stream.",
