In this paper, we propose using the network-attached disk (NAD) architecture to design highly scalable and cost-effective multimedia-on-demand (MOD) servers. In order to ensure en...
This paper examines the costs and potential benefits of long-term prefetching for content distribution. In traditional short-term prefetching, caches use recent access history to ...

Abstract-- Cycle accurate simulation has long been the primary tool for micro-architecture design and evaluation. Though accurate, the slow speed often imposes constraints on the e...
In the past decade, processor speed has become significantly faster than memory speed. Small, fast cache memories are designed to overcome this discrepancy, but they are only effe...
: This paper describes the collection and analysis of supercomputer I/O traces and their use in a collection of buffering and caching simulations. This serves two purposes. First, ...
