This paper is motivated by a simple question: what are
the energy consumption characteristics of mobile storage
design space of multiple dimensions. Two important dimensions
alternatives? To answer this question, we are faced with a
are the type of storage technologies and the type of file
systems. In this paper, we explore some options along each
of these two dimensions. We have constructed a logical-disk
system, which can be configured to run on different storage
technologies and to emulate the behavior of different
file systems. As we explore these configuration options, we
find that the energy behavior is determined by a complex
interaction of three factors: the power management mechanism
of the storage device, the distribution of idleness in
the workload, and the file system strategies that attempt to
exploit and bridge these first two factors.
