Abstract:The storage volume of SSDs has been greatly increased recently with emerging multi-layer 3D triple-level cell and quad-level cell. However, one critical overhead of any flash memory SSD is the garbage collection (GC) process that is necessary due to the inherent physical property of flash memories. GC is a time consuming process that slows down I/O performance and decreases endurance of SSD. To minimize the negative impact of GC, we introduce Write Amplification Reduction by Clustering I/O Pages (WARCIP). The … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
