Cloud services accessed through mobile devices suffer from high network access latencies and are constrained by energy budgets dictated by the devices’ batteries. Radio and batt...
Buffer caches in operating systems keep active file blocks in memory to reduce disk accesses. Related studies have been focused on how to minimize buffer misses and the caused pe...
: NAND flash-based solid-state drives (SSDs) are increasingly being deployed in storage systems at different levels such as buffer-caches and even secondary storage. However, the ...
