	abstract = {Users of distributed systems often detect performance problems of different types and sources which can sometimes be difficult to trace down to aspecific cause due to the complex structure of distributed systems. However, determining the source of the performance problem is highly critical in finding an efficient solution. Managing data fragments on different nodes is one of the major sources of such a problem and is considered as a big challenge facing system developers and designers in a distributed environment.},
