ABSTRACT

Hard-disk drive power consumption reduction methods focus mainly on increasing the amount of time the disk is in standby mode (disk spun down) by implementing aggressive data read-ahead and caching at the operating system and/or application level. However, these methods cannot be applied efficiently to systems with limited memory and high bit-rate requirements such as digital video recorders handling high-definition video. In this paper, we introduce the Audio/Video File System (AVFS), composed of a file system and a disk I/O scheduler. Compared to traditional methods, the proposed scheduler reduces seek overhead by processing real-time requests to video files using batches built dynamically depending on the requests deadlines. Evaluation results show an important reduction in disk utilization rates and a reduction of up to 20 % of the disk power consumption with only 4 MB of data buffer per video stream.
