Design and Evaluation of a Compiler-Directed Collective I/O Technique
Abstract. Current approaches to parallel I/O demand extensive user effort to obtain acceptable performance. This is in part due to difficulties in understanding the characteristics...

Efficient Parallel I/O on SCI Connected Clusters
This paper presents a new approach towards parallel I/O for message-passing (MPI) applications on clusters built with commodity hardware and an SCI interconnect: instead of using t...

Using PI/OT to Support Complex Parallel I/O
This paper describes PI/OT, a template-based parallel I/O system. In PI/OT, I/O streams have annotations associated with them that are external to the source code. These annotatio...

On Disk Allocation of Intermediate Query Results in Parallel Database Systems
For complex queries in parallel database systems, substantial amounts of data must be redistributed between operators executed on different processing nodes. Frequently, such inter...

Fast Parallel Non-Contiguous File Access
Many applications of parallel I/O perform non-contiguous file accesses: instead of accessing a single (large) block of data in a file, a number of (smaller) blocks of data scatt...
