Stride static chunking algorithm for deduplication system

In this paper, we propose a stride static chunking deduplication algorithm using a hybrid approach that exploits the advantages of static chunking and byte-shift chunking algorithm. The key contribution of our approach is to reduce the computation time and enhance deduplication performance. We assume that duplicated data blocks are generally gathered into groups; thus, if we find one duplicated data block using byte-shift, then we can find subsequent data blocks with the static chunking approach. Experimental results show that stride static chunking algorithm gives significant benefits over static chunking, byte-shift chunking and variable-length chunking algorithm, particularly for reducing processing time and storage space.
