		Ceph has grown out of the petabyte-scale storage research at the Storage Systems Research Center at the University of California, Santa Cruz.  The project is funded primarily by a grant from the Lawrence Livermove, Sandia, and Los Alamos National Laboratories.  A range of publications related to scalable storage systems have resulted.
		<p>
		The following publications are directly related to the current design of Ceph.
