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...
The access patterns performed by disk-intensive applications vary widely, from simple contiguous reads or writes through an entire file to completely unpredictable random access....
