On the Optimality of Disk Allocation for Cartesian Product Files (Extended Abstract)

Summary: MDS-based coding analysis of disk allocation for Cartesian-product files, giving necessary/sufficient conditions and constructive strictly-optimal schemes when they exist. Shows strict optimality often impossible, proposes a weaker unit-response-time goal minimizing specified attributes and solves the binary-file case when disk count is a power of two.
