In a distributed storage system, client caches managed on the basis of small granularity objects can provide better memory utilization then page-based caches. However, object serv...
Data access prediction has been proposed as a mechanism to overcome latency lag, and more recently as a means of conserving energy in mobile systems. We present a fully adaptive p...

iFlow is a replication-based system that can achieve both fast and reliable processing of high volume data streams on the Internet scale. iFlow uses a low degree of replication in...
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...
Performance non-determinism in computer systems complicates evaluation, use, and even development of these systems. In performance evaluation via benchmarking and simulation, nond...
