Ghost-cache crfp algorithm simulator based on trace and file system

Solid State Drive (SSD) is fast media that has become popular recently. Because it has a smaller size, it acts on larger and slower media as a cache. There are researches on SSD as a cache on Hard Disk (HDD) media. This paper present GCRFP algorithm and test its performance using two simulators. The first simulator is implemented by using trace input, the second using user-space file-system. The purpose of these simulators is to study the algorithm performance behavior. The findings demonstrate that GCRFP gives LARC comparable performance in both simulators.
