Controlling Your PLACE in the File System with Gray-box Techniques
We present the design and implementation of PLACE, a gray-box library for controlling file layout on top of FFSlike file systems. PLACE exploits its knowledge of FFS layout poli...

Micro-pages: increasing DRAM efficiency with locality-aware data placement
Power consumption and DRAM latencies are serious concerns in modern chip-multiprocessor (CMP or multi-core) based compute systems. The management of the DRAM row buffer can signif...
