Based on the load balancing, it assigns the files to the same disk according to the similar service time. Firstly, the files were sorted and stored at the set I in descending order in terms of their service time, then one disk of cluster node was selected randomly when the files were to be assigned, and at last the continuous files were taken orderly from the set I to the disk until the disk reached its load maximum. The experimental results show that the new strategy improves the performance by 20.2% when the load of the system is light and by 31.6% when the load is heavy. And the higher the data access rate, the more evident the improvement of the performance obtained by the heuristic file sorted assignment algorithm.展开更多
