The market for cloud backup services in the personal computing environment is growing due
to large volumes of valuable personal and corporate data being stored on desktops, laptops …

Currently, HPC storage systems still use hard disk drive (HDD) as their dominant storage
device. Solid state drive (SSD) is widely deployed as the buffer to HDDs. Burst buffer has …

Flash-based solid-state drive has been proved to be a competitive alternative to mechanical
disk for its high performance and low power consumption. But SSD still suffers from relatively …

Big Data requires a shift in traditional computing architecture. The in-memory computing is a
new paradigm for Big Data analytics. However, DRAM-based main memory is neither cost …

In recent years, solid-state drives (SSDs) have been widely deployed in modern storage
systems. To increase the performance of SSDs, prefetchers for SSDs have been designed …

Some implementations relate to storage of data in a storage device with a plurality of chips.
In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes identifying a plu rality …

Flash memory has limited erasure/program cycles. Hence, to meet their advertised capacity
all the time, flash-based solid state drives (SSDs) must prolong their life span through a wear …

Multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash-based consumer electronic devices suffer from random
multiple bit errors that grow exponentially with the increase of program/erase counts …

In the era of big data, high-bandwidth and high-concurrency architecture of storage systems
is urgently needed. Due to the superiority in power consumption, random access rate and …

Solid-state drives (SSDs) are widely used in storage systems. However, algorithms adopted
by existing operating systems generally consider the underlying devices as hard disks, and …
