Simulation of the performance of a collection of storage space allocation algorithms
Description:
Storage algorithms for reserving and freeing contiguous blocks of storage space were investigated. A simulation program was constructed and run for each method; several different distributions of the parameters that characterize the request for storage space were used. The performance of a noncontiguous storage algorithm was simulated for comparison with the other methods. The effect of disk flaws on the performance of several algorithms was also simulated. The simulation runs showed that the a…
