Authors: 

Saurabh Kadekodi, Swapnil Pimpale, and Garth A. Gibson, Carnegie Mellon University

Abstract: 

In this paper we will present a simple model for Host- Managed Caveat-Scriptor, describe a simple FUSE-based file system for Host-Managed Caveat-Scriptor, construct and describe a file system aging tool and report initial performance comparisons between Strict-Append and Caveat-Scriptor. We will show the potential for Caveat-Scriptor to help limit heavy tail response times for shingled disks.
