ABSTRACT:
A method for increasing locality of disk references for data storage in a single file system is provided. This locality results in higher system throughput for delivery and access to the data. The data is separated into meta data and content. Both meta data and the content are densely packed in quasi-reserved sections of the disk space. The content is allocated using time based locality.
