In a cluster of multiple processors or cpu-cores, many processes may run on each compute node. Each process tends to issue contiguous I/O requests for snapshot, checkpointing or s...
—Clusters and applications continue to grow in size while their mean time between failure (MTBF) is getting smaller. Checkpoint/Restart is becoming increasingly important for lar...
In the past decades, parallel I/O systems have been used widely to support scientific and commercial applications. New data centers today employ huge quantities of I/O systems, wh...
