Abstract--Today's storage systems place an imperative demand on energy efficiency. A storage system often places single-rotationrate disks into standby mode by stopping them f...
I/O is a major performance bottleneck in modern computer systems. Modern disks use the Zone-Bit-Recording (ZBR) technology to increase the capacity. A direct consequence of ZBR is...
Current cluster architectures provide the ideal environment to run federations of main-memory database systems (FMMDBs). In FMMDBs, data resides in the main memory of the federati...
A new RAID-x (redundant array of inexpensive disks at level x) architecture is presented for distributed I/O processing on a serverless cluster of computers. The RAID-x architectu...
