We have developed Ceph, a distributed file system that provides excellent performance,
reliability, and scalability. Ceph maximizes the separation between data and metadata …

As Linux clusters have matured as platforms for low-cost, high-performance parallel
computing, software packages to provide many key services have emerged, especially in …

We discuss the issues involved in implementing MPI-IO portably on multiple machines and
file systems and also achieving high performance. One way to implement MPI-IO portably is …

In this paper we report on preliminary work and architectural design carried out in the “Data
Management” work package in the International Data Grid project. Our aim within a time …

Many scientific applications that run on today's multiprocessors, such as weather forecasting
and seismic analysis, are bottlenecked by their file-I/O needs. Even if the multiprocessor is …

Cluster I/O with River: Making the Fast Case Common Page 1 Cluster I/O with River: Making
the Fast Case Common Abstract We introduce River, a dafa-flow programming environment …

We propose a strategy for implementing parallel I/O interfaces portably and efficiently. We
have defined an abstract device interface for parallel I/O, called ADIO. Any parallel I/O API …

SOLAR is a portable high-perfonnance library for out-of-core dense matrix computations. It
combines portability with high perfonnance by using existing high-perfonnance in-core …

Algorithms that have to process large data sets have to take into account that the cost of
memory access depends on where the data is stored. Traditional algorithm design is based …
