Recently, Tang and Chanson proposed a minimum cost distribution model for replicated Web contents subject to an expiration-based consistency management. Their model is a progress in that it can consider multiple replicas via the network of servers located on the Web. The proposed greedy heuristic, however, has an undesirable feature that the solution tends to converge a local optimum at an early stage of the algorithm. in this paper, we propose an algorithm based on a simple idea of preventing the early local convergence. The new algorithm provides solutions whose cost are, on the average, 27$\%$ lower than in the previous algorithm.

Many failures are due to incorrectly programmed transactions and data entry errors. System failure causes the loss or corruption of the contents of volatile storage. Although global processing protects data values to detect direct or indirect information effluence, security environments are very important in the recovery management of heterogeneous systems. Although transaction can't control system fault, the restart for the system can cause information effluence by low bandwith. From various faults, it is not easy to maintain the consistency and security of data. This paper proposes recovery management protocols to assure global multilevel secure one-copy quasi-serializability in security environments of heterogeneous systems with replicated data and proves its correctness. The proposed secure protocols guarantee the reliability and security of system when the system fault is happened.
