Optimal Storage Allocation for Serial
نویسندگان
چکیده
A computer system uses several serial files. The files reside on a direct-access storage device in which storage space is limited. Records are added to the files either by jobs in batch processing mode, or by on-line transactions. Each transaction (or job) generates a demand vector which designates the space required in each file for record addition. Whenever one file runs out of space, the system must be reorganized. This paper considers several criteria for best allocating storage space to the files.

Allocation of Distributed Energy Resources for Microgrid Optimal Scheduling Considering Uncertainty
In this paper, a microgrid including a solar panel, a battery energy storage system and a diesel generator as the backup source are optimally is designed. The microgrid is considered as a part of a distribution network, that could be considered as local area. As microgrids can operate in grid-connected mode, the proposed algorithm investigates the minimization of the distribution network power ...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Buffer Allocation in Production Lines
In the paper a new efficient algorithm for the allocation of storage capacity in serial production lines is derived. The proposed method aims to find out the distribution of storage capacity between machines that minimizes the total buffer space assigned to the line satisfying a target production requirement. The algorithm relies on an iterative scheme that, starting from the minimal capacity r...
متن کاملStorage Allocation for Multi-Class Distributed Data Storage Systems
Distributed storage systems (DSSs) provide a scalable solution for reliably storing massive amounts of data coming from various sources. Heterogeneity of these data sources often means different data classes (types) exist in a DSS, each needing a different level of quality of service (QoS). As a result, efficient data storage and retrieval processes that satisfy various QoS requirements are nee...
متن کاملWhen to store energy in a stochastic environment.
The ability to store energy enables organisms to deal with temporarily harsh and uncertain conditions. Empirical studies have demonstrated that organisms adapted to fluctuating energy availability plastically adjust their storage strategies. So far, however, theoretical studies have investigated general storage strategies only in constant or deterministically varying environments. In this study...
