The I/O access patterns of parallel programs often consist of accesses to a large number of
small, noncontiguous pieces of data. If an application's I/O needs are met by making many …

Applications running on leadership platforms are more and more bottlenecked by storage
input/output (I/O). In an effort to combat the increasing disparity between I/O throughput and …

This paper proposes the use of repetitive broadcast as a way of augmenting the memory
hierarchy of clients in an asymmetric communication environment. We describe a new …

In this paper, we present aggressive, proactive mechanisms that tailor file system resource
management to the needs of l/O-intensive applications. In particular, we show how to use …

Emerging high-performance distributed computing environments are enabling new end-to-
end formulations in science and engineering that involve multiple interacting processes and …

In this article we discuss the strategic directions and challenges in the management and use
of storage systems—those components of computer systems responsible for the storage and …

The increasing performance and decreasing cost of processors and memory are causing
system intelligence to move into peripherals from the CPU. Storage system designers are …

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 …
