This project implements and visualizes various disk scheduling algorithms using the analogy of elevators in a building. The primary algorithms include FCFS, SSTF, SCAN, LOOK, and their circular ...

This Jupyter Notebook (Disk-Scheduling- Simulation.ipynb) simulates and compares the performance of three disk scheduling algorithms: SCAN, C-SCAN, and C-LOOK.

There are many ways to evaluate disk space usage on Linux, and this post examines a number of commands that allow you to view used and available disk space. The df command stands for “disk free” and, ...

In this section, we describe how an in-disk scheduler must evolve to support range writes. We present two approaches. The first we call expand-and-cancel scheduling, a technique that is simple, ...

Disk scheduling has long been used to reduce positioning overheads for writes. Early schedulers, built into the OS, tried to reduce seek costs with simple algorithms such as elevator and its many ...

The looming challenges of quantum computing have prompted the Java Platform to implement two advanced cryptographic solutions in its upcoming release, Java 24, slated for March 2025. Quantum computers ...

Abstract: In this paper, we proposed a new disk scheduling algorithm for improving the performance of modern storage devices in terms of throughput. Since the invention of disk with movable heads, ...
