As a cache eviction algorithm, FIFO has a lot of attractive properties, such as simplicity,
speed, scalability, and flash-friendliness. The most prominent criticism of FIFO is its low …

New non-volatile memory technologies offer unprecedented performance levels for
persistent storage. However, to exploit their full potential, a deeper performance …

We introduce non-hierarchical caching (NHC), a novel approach to caching in modern
storage hierarchies. NHC improves performance as compared to classic caching by …

The classical max-min fairness algorithm for resource allocation provides many desirable
properties, eg, Pareto efficiency, strategy-proofness and fairness. This paper builds upon the …

Big data is an emerging term in the storage industry, and it is data analytics on big storage,
ie, Cloud-scale storage. In Cloud-scale (or EB-scale) file systems, load balancing in request …

The rise of edge computing as a new storage and compute model has already motivated
numerous studies within the systems community, focusing on the choices and mechanisms …

Analyzing simple and natural price-adjustment processes that converge to a market
equilibrium is a fundamental question in economics. Such an analysis may have …

Data is increasingly stored in data lakes, vast immutable object stores that can be accessed
from anywhere in the data center. By providing low cost and scalable storage, today …

Recent expanding rise of mobile device users for cloud services leads to resource
challenges in Mobile Network Operator's (MNO) network. This poses significant additional …

Modern flash devices, which perform updates 'out of place', require different optimization
strategies than hard disks. The focus for flash devices is on optimizing data movement …
