Authors are ranked by total number of FAST papers (the top conference for storage research). Authors with same number of papers have the same rank.
For display purposes, within each rank, authors are sorted by last name. Top 100 (approximately) authors are shown.
Disclaimers: A real Hall of Fame should be determined by impact, not paper count. Data pulled from DBLP using a variation of dblp-python. Typos and name changes can cause miscounts. Please direct all queries about data to DBLP.
Author information for folks in academia obtained from CSRankings with permission from Prof. Emery Berger. Author information for industry folks added manually. Please direct queries about academic affiliation to CSRankings.
