Sadly 1992 is 31 years ago. The authors pushed for log structured filesystems in an earlier paper in 1988 : Beating the I/O Bottleneck https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/1988/5760.html https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/1988/5760.html . It was inspiration for many storage appliances, NetApp probably being a very strong example.
Though many were thinking about these ideas in the 88-92 timeframe, as Tape storage systems are roughly speaking append only, so lots of the ideas of a logged filesystem are around the increased random read from disk drives.
