Utilizing the nonuniform latencies of SDRAM devices, access reordering mechanisms alter the sequence of main memory access streams to reduce the observed access latency. Using a r...
This paper focuses on evaluation of the effectiveness of optimization at various layers of the IO path, such as the file system, the device driver scheduler, and the disk drive i...
Journaling is a widely used technique to increase file system robustness against metadata and/or data corruptions. While the overhead of journaling can be masked by the page cache...
