To bridge the increasing processor-disk performance gap, buffer caches are used in both storage clients (e.g. database systems) and storage servers to reduce the number of slow di...

—In this paper we present C2Cfs - a decentralized collective caching architecture for distributed filesystems. C2Cfs diverges from the traditional client-server model and advoca...
Uncontrolled overload can lead e-commerce applications to considerable revenue losses. For this reason, overload prevention in these applications is a critical issue. In this pape...
Disk performance is increasingly limited by its head positioning latencies, i.e., seek time and rotational delay. To reduce the head positioning latencies, we propose a novel tech...
This paper develops and evaluates new share-based scheduling algorithms for differentiated service quality in network services, such as network storage servers. This form of resou...
