File system is an abstraction of storage media. This abstraction provides a friendly mechanism to the user to access the underlying storage elements. The user may be an end user of the computer who accesses files through graphical user interface (GUI) of an operating system or a programmer who accesses stored files through the system calls. Besides many other uses of a file, one is its use to store temporal data, i.e., the data that is valid for a specific period of time only. The data stored prior to a particular time instance becomes stale or useless and the space occupied by such data can be re-utilized. In such applications, after examining the required information, the data prior to a particular instance of time can be overwritten by new information. In this paper, we introduce the concept of circular file - file that can start overwriting itself after storing a particular amount of data or, indirectly, for a particular amount of time if time sensitive application like video surveillance is considered. |
