Abstract

This Paper deals with the allocation of records on a linear storage device to minimize the average access time when the request probabilities to the recores are not independent. For sequential access, algorithms to obtain optimal and approximate solutions are presented. The approximation algorithm is also used with little modification for direct access. The performance of the approximation algorithm is estimated.
