This paper makes a case for the multi-streamed solidstate drive (SSD). It offers an intuitive
storage interface for the host system to inform the SSD about the expected lifetime of data …

We prove a fundamental theorem about the relative entropy of quantum states, which
roughly states that if the relative entropy, S (/spl rho//spl par//spl sigma/)/spl Delta/= Tr/spl …

A solid-state drive (SSD) gains fast I/O speed and is becoming an ideal replacement for
traditional rotating storage. However, its speed and responsiveness heavily depend on …

This work is motivated by the strong demand for flash-friendly index designs to resolve
reliability and performance concerns for data manipulation over flash memory. In …

Commodity solid state drives (SSDs) have recently begun involving the adoption of powerful
controllers for multichannel flash management at the page level. However, many of these …

Advanced solid-state disks (SSDs) have been equipped with page-mapping flash translation
layers and multichannel architectures. The SSDs employ a RAM-based write buffer, which …

In this work, we optimize the highly variable latency of flash SSDs by presenting a host side
storage engine, which is capable of cooperating with the SSDs, and augmented by the …

Multilevel flash memory cells double or even triple storage density, producing affordable
solid-state disks for end users. As flash memory endures only limited program-erase cycles …

Many flash storage systems divide input/output (I/O) requests that require large amounts of
data into sub-requests to exploit their internal parallelism. In this case, an I/O request can be …

Solid-state disks use multichannel architectures to boost their data transfer rates. Because
realistic disk workloads have numerous small write requests, modern flash-storage devices …
