: A buffer is a main-memory area used to reduce accessto disks. The buffer holds pages from secondary storage files. A processrequesting a page causesa fault if the pageis not in t...
In this paper, we present a novel out-of-core technique for the interactive computation of isosurfaces from volume data. Our algorithm minimizes the main memory and disk space req...
Any set of autonomous workstations, however networked (by a LAN, a MAN, or wireless), can be seen as a collection of networked low cost disks. Such a collection can be operated by...
Recent advances in flash media have made it an attractive alternative for data storage in a wide spectrum of computing devices, such as embedded sensors, mobile phones, PDA's...
User I/O intensity can significantly impact the performance of on-line RAID reconstruction due to contention for the shared disk bandwidth. Based on this observation, this paper p...
