Disk performance is increasingly limited by its head positioning latencies, i.e., seek time and rotational delay. To reduce the head positioning latencies, we propose a novel tech...
Abstract—Data movement within high performance environments can be a large bottleneck to the overall performance of programs. With the addition of continuous storage and usage of...
Abstract—Flash disks have been an emerging secondary storage media. In particular, there have been portable devices, multimedia players and laptop computers that are configured ...

Increasing power consumption of high-performance systems leads to reliability, survivability, and cooling related problems. Motivated by this observation, several recent efforts f...
Previous real-time disk scheduling algorithms assume that each disk request incurs a disk mechanical operation and only consider how to move the disk head under real-time constrain...
