Comparing the XAM API with File System Programing, by Stephen Todd, University of New Hampshire
This thesis paper describes a XAM simulation framework that allows for the building of XAM applications without the need for actual XAM hardware. It also compares the XAM API to the familiar block file system API. The XAM simulation can form the basis of a robust framework for continuing XAM research. Please note the date of submission was December 2006 and references the XAM Specification submitted to the SNIA as Version 1.1 and 1.2. These versions have been replaced by version 0.6 based on the work of the FCAS TWG over the past nine months. Although some of the examples referenced in this thesis may have change as the result of the FCAS TWG work, the overall content is helpful to developers and consequently has been included for reference.
