There are many lucid introductions to I/O systems organization. Particularly recommended is Stallings [269]. There have been a number of recent papers on the issue of multimedia; particularly interesting is the special issue of Communications of the ACM (April 1991). |

Mee and Danielle [195] and Harker [121] are particularly good treatments of recording technology and the evolution of disk storage subsystems. |

Kobayashi [169] and Kleinrock [166] have the most relevant and appropriate treatment of queueing theory as it applies to processor configurations. Smith's treatment of disk cache buffers [261] is among the earliest and most comprehensive on this topic. Other relevant works in this area include Grossman, Mitsuishi and Ousterhout. Cray Research has pioneered disk striping for use in supercomputer applications [63]. Kim in her thesis [163] presents an interesting treatment of disk modeling and the statistical distributions of both disk access and service times. She further develops performance models for various disk interleaving technologies. A treatment of concurrent disk ensembles follows the terminology and treatment of Reddy [244]. His quantitative approach and evaluations are particularly valuable in validating our own models. Gray [112], Ng [216], and Salem [251] make important contributions to concurrent disk technology. Katz [158] has formalized the discussion of redundancy in disk arrays by introducing the various concepts of RAID levels; see also Patterson [229] and Lee [180]. |
