Multi-tier systems that combine SSDs with SAS/FC and/or SATA disks mitigate the capital cost burden of SSDs, while benefiting from their superior I/O performance per unit cost an...

New high-speed networks greatly encourage the use of network memory as a cache for virtual memory and file pages, thereby reducing the need for disk access. Becausepages are the f...
Recent developments in software and hardware changed the way database systems are built and operate. In this paper we present database architectures based on the Client Server par...
We propose a new parallel, noncollective I/O strategy called Distant I/O that targets clustered computer systems in which disks are attached to compute nodes. Distant I/O allows o...
A parallel file may be physically stored on several independent disks and logically partitioned by several processors. This paper presents general algorithms for mapping between t...
