The RAM Enhanced Disk Cache Project (REDCAP)
This paper presents the RAM Enhanced Disk Cache Project, REDCAP, a new cache of disk blocks which reduces the read I/O time by using a small portion of the main memory. The essent...

Asynchronous parallel disk sorting
We develop an algorithm for parallel disk sorting, whose I/O cost approaches the lower bound and that guarantees almost perfect overlap between I/O and computation. Previous algor...

Improving Parallel-Disk Buffer Management using Randomized Writeback
We address the problems of I/O scheduling and buffer management for general reference strings in a parallel I/O system. Using the standard parallel disk model withD disks and a sh...
