This paper considers the question of saving energy in the disk drive making advantage of
diverse devices in a hybrid storage system employing flash and disk drives. The flash and …

This paper considers the problem of efficiently managing storage space in a hybrid storage
system employing flash and disk drives. The flash and disk drives exhibit different …

In the past decade parallel disk systems have been highly scalable and able to alleviate the
problem of disk I/O bottleneck, thereby being widely used to support a wide range of data …

Increasing energy costs and the trend to green solutions are generating growing interest in
eco-friendly computing. Flash storage technology satisfies low-energy requirements and …

In computer systems, the storage hierarchy, composed of a disk drive and a DRAM, is
responsible for a large portion of the total energy consumed. This work studies the energy …

The need for low power, small form-factor, secondary storage devices in embedded systems
has led to the widespread use of flash memory. Energy consumption due to processor and …

Even though their capacities are still orders of magnitude lower than those of hard disks,
flash storage systems are rapidly gaining importance in energy-constrained systems. This …

This work explores the unique characteristics of flash memory in serving as a cache layer for
disks. The experiments show that the proposed management scheme could save up to 20 …

High performance and energy-efficient storage systems are essential for mobile data-
intensive applications such as remote surgery and mobile data center. Existing mobile …

Flash memory is widely used because of its shock-resistance and power-efficient features.
However, it cannot replace hard disks as secondary storage devices due to their greater cost …
