Abstract. Classical buffer replacement policies, e.g., LRU, are suboptimal for database systems having flash disks for persistence, because they are not aware of the distinguished ...
Flash disks are becoming an important alternative to conventional magnetic disks. Although accessed through the same interface by applications, flash disks have some distinguishe...
We design and implement FD-Buffer, a buffer manager for database systems running on flash-based disks. Unlike magnetic disks, flash media has an inherent read-write asymmetry: w...

Of the many tuning parameters available in a database management system (DBMS), one of the most crucial to performance is the buffer pool size. Choosing an appropriate size, howev...
For a spatial database management system, it is an important goal to minimize the I/O-cost of queries and other operations. Several page-replacement strategies have been proposed a...
