Workload Models

The purpose of our experiments is to conduct a comprehensive and unbiased performance study of the proposed scheme and compare the results with that of unmodified LFS. We paid special attention to select the traces. Our main objective was to select traces that match as close to realistic workloads as possible. At the same time, we also wanted to cover as wide a range of environments as possible. The trace files that have been selected in this paper are discussed below.
