A Large-Scale Study of File-System Contents John R. Douceur and William J. Bolosky Microsoft Research Redmond, WA 98052 {johndo, bolosky}@microsoft.com ABSTRACT sizes are fairly consistent across file systems, but file lifetimes and file-name extensions vary with the job function of the user. We We collect and analyze a snapshot of data from 10,568 file also found that file-name extension is a good predictor of file size systems of 4801 Windows personal computers in a commercial but a poor predictor of file age or lifetime, that most large files are environment. The file systems contain 140 million files totaling composed of records sized in powers of two, and that file systems 10.5 TB of data. We develop analytical approximations for are only half full on average. distributions of file size, file age, file functional lifetime, directory File-system designers require usage data to test hypotheses [8, size, and directory depth, and we compare them to previously 10], to drive simulations [6, 15, 17, 29], to validate benchmarks derived distributions. We find that file and directory sizes are [33], and to stimulate insights that inspire new features [22].

Introduction to PC Operating Systems
Introduction to PC Operating Systems Operating System Concepts 8th Edition Written by: Abraham Silberschatz, Peter Baer Galvin and Greg Gagne John Wiley & Sons, Inc. ISBN: 978-0-470-12872-5 Chapter 2 Operating-System Structure The design of a new operating system is a major task. It is important that the goals of the system be well defined before the design begins. These goals for the basis for choices among various algorithms and strategies. What can be focused on in designing an operating system • Services that the system provides • The interface that it makes available to users and programmers • Its components and their interconnections Operating-System Services The operating system provides: • An environment for the execution of programs • Certain services to programs and to the users of those programs. Note: (services can differ from one operating system to another) A view of operating system services user and other system programs GUI batch command line user interfaces system calls program I/O file Resource communication accounting execution operations systems allocation error protection detection services and security operating system hardware Operating-System Services Almost all operating systems have a user interface. Types of user interfaces: 1. Command Line Interface (CLI) – method where user enter text commands 2. Batch Interface – commands and directives that controls those commands are within a file and the files are executed 3. Graphical User Interface – works in a windows system using a pointing device to direct I/O, using menus and icons and a keyboard to enter text. Operating-System Services Services Program Execution – the system must be able to load a program into memory and run that program. -
