Exploiting spatial locality is critical for a disk scheduler to achieve high throughput. Because of the high cost of disk head seeks and the non-preemptible nature of request serv...
This paper examines the application of Tornado Codes, a class of low density parity check (LDPC) erasure codes, to archival storage systems based on massive arrays of idle disks (...
Informed prefetching and caching based on application disclosure of future I/O accesses (hints) can dramatically reduce the execution time of I/O-intensive applications. A recent ...
