Cluster Allocation Strategies of the ExFAT and FAT File Systems: A Comparative Study in Embedded Storage Systems

File Allocation Table (FAT)file system is the most common file system used in embedded devices such as smart phones, digital cameras, smart TVs, tablets, etc. Typically these embedded devices use Solid State Drives (SSD) as storage devices. The ExFAT file system is future file system for embedded devices and it is optimal for SSDs. This paper discourses the methodologies for Geotagging as a file system metadata instead of file data in FAT and ExFAT file systems. The designed methodologies of this paper adheresthe compatibility with the FAT file system specification and existing ExFAT file system implementations.
