Disk Built-in Caches: Evaluation on System Performance
Disk drive manufacturers are putting increasingly larger built-in caches into disk drives. Today, 2 MB buffers are common on low-end retail IDE/ATA drives, and some SCSI drives ar...

Improved Adaptive Replacement Algorithm for Disk-Caches in HSM Systems
With an ever increasing amount of data to store, hierarchical storage management (HSM) systems must still use tape for tertiary storage. A disk cache is used to reduce the access ...

A Distributed Algorithm for Sharing Web Cache Disk Capacity
A decentralized game theoretic framework applied to Web caching is discussed. The interaction of multiple clients with a caching server is modeled as a non-cooperative game, in wh...
