Users of mobile computers will soon have online access to a large number of databases via
wireless networks. Because of limited bandwidth, wireless communication is more …

Trace driven simulations were used to study the performance of several disk cache
replacement policies for network file servers. It is shown that locality based approaches …

RAID storage arrays often possess gigabytes of RAM forcaching disk blocks. Currently, most
RAID systems use LRUor LRU-like policies to manage these caches. Since these …

Users of mobile computers will soon have online access to a large number of databases via
wireless networks. Because of limited bandwidth, wireless communication is more …

A distributed file system provides a file service from one or more shared file servers to a
community of client workstations over a network. While the client-server paradigm has many …

This paper makes two contributions. First, we introduce a model for evaluating the
performance of data allocation and replication algorithms in distributed databases. The …

Delayed write in a multilevel file system cache hierarchy offers a way to improve
performance in diverse client/server scenarios, such as integrating mass store into a …

A virtual filesystem for allowing a large number of data files to be created, deleted, and
rearranged by a peripheral device incorporating the filesystem without requiring the host …

The client-server DBMS model has emerged as the main paradigm in database computing.
The enhanced client-server architecture takes advantage of all the available client resources …

We present the results of a variety of trace-driven simulations of disk cache designs using
traces from a variety of mainframe timesharing and database systems in production use. We …
