Group-Based Management of Distributed File Caches
We describe how to manage distributed file system caches based upon groups of files that are accessed together. We use file access patterns to automatically construct dynamic g...

Management policies for non-volatile write caches
Many computer hardware and software architectures buffer data in memory to improve system performance. Volatile disk or file caches are sometimes used to delay the propagation of ...

The virtual write queue: coordinating DRAM and last-level cache policies
In computer architecture, caches have primarily been viewed as a means to hide memory latency from the CPU. Cache policies have focused on anticipating the CPU’s data needs, and...
