MEMS-based Storage Devices and Standard Disk Interfaces: A Square Peg in a Round Hole?
MEMS-based storage devices (MEMStores) are significantly different from both disk drives and semiconductor memories. The differences motivate the queswhether they need new abstrac...

Consistency of Databases on Commodity Disk Drives
Most database systems use ARIES-like logging and recovery scheme to recover from failures and guarantee transactional consistency. ARIES relies on the Write-Ahead Logging (WAL) pr...

An Analytic Behavior Model for Disk Drives with Readahead Caches and Request Reordering
Modern disk drives read-ahead data and reorder incoming requests in a workload-dependent fashion. This improves their performance, but makes simple analytical models of them inade...

Brief announcement: a shared disk on distributed storage
A shared disk implementation on distributed storage requires consistent behavior of disk operations. Deterministic consensus on such behavior is impossible when even a single stor...

Robust, Portable I/O Scheduling with the Disk Mimic
We propose a new approach for I/O scheduling that performs on-line simulation of the underlying disk. When simulation is integrated within a system, three key challenges must be a...
