Notability and COI

I've added notability and COI tags to the article. I've been unable to find articles on this topic independent of the group that invented the data structure. Without independent, in-depth reliable sources per WP:RS, this article may fail to satisfy notability guidelines per WP:GNG. The COI tag comes from the article creator also being one of the inventors of the algorithm and also an author on two of the cited papers: "Cache-Oblivoius streaming B-trees" and "The TokuFS Streaming File System". Per WP:COI, this can lead to problems with the neutrality of the article. Editors knowledgable about the topic should review the content for neutrality--although without independent reliable sources to rely on, this may be difficult.

Terse line maybe?

The article says "There are several choices for how the buffers are flushed, all leading to similar I/O complexity."

It seems you are hinting at whether all buffers in a node are flushed or only the fullest buffer is flushed, and comparing/contrasting the costs resulting due to one of the 2 decisions. Is that so? If that is the case, then it is totally not clear that it is what is meant. Some more elaboration would be super helpful! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dhruvbird (talk • contribs) 02:06, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This looks like a cache-oblivious data structure/(crystalized) algorithm

However, there are no links to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache-oblivious_algorithm — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dhruvbird (talk • contribs) 15:42, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
