Given the decreasing cost of non-volatile RAM (NVRAM), by the late 1990's it will be feasible for most workstations to include a megabyte or more of NVRAM, enabling the desig...

While many block replacement algorithms for buffer caches have been proposed to address the wellknown drawbacks of the LRU algorithm, they are not robust and cannot maintain a cons...
In this paper we present a new dictionary-based preprocessing technique and its implementation called TWRT (Two-level Word Replacing Transformation). Our preprocessor uses several...
We have developed Ceph, a distributed file system that provides excellent performance, reliability, and scalability. Ceph maximizes the separation between data and metadata manage...

In this paper, we describe an algorithm and implementation of locality optimizations for architectures with instruction sets such as Intel’s SSE and Motorola’s AltiVec that su...
