The structural model is then implemented in a suitable computer code program able to analyse strong nonlinearities arising from low stress levels in the cables, where the uniqueness of the solution is not assured. Therefore, an appropriate simulation technique is required to capture the static equilibrium configurations of the cable systems subjected to a given external action. After a preliminary discussion of the relevant equations governing the behaviour of the structural model, a finite element analysis is developed to account for the main inherent features related to convergence and stability of the numerical algorithm used.

In this paper we present an extended comparative analysis, carried out by using discrete event simulation models, between two disk array architectures: the Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) level 1 architecture, based on data replication; and the RAID level 5 architecture, based on the use of parity information. The comparison takes both performance and cost aspects into account.
