Abstract
Disclosed herein is a distributed file system using a torus network. The distributed file system includes multiple servers. The location of a master server may be determined to shorten the latency of data input/output. The location of the master server may be determined such that the distance between the master server and a node farthest away from the master server, among nodes, is minimized. When the location of the master server is determined, the characteristics of the torus network and the features of a propagation transmission scheme may be taken into consideration.
