This paper describes measurement tests of Parallel Virtual File System (PVFS) and Network File System (NFS) over a commodity Linux cluster connected with Myrinet. PVFS stores a ...
Massively multicore processors, like, for example, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), provide, at a comparable price, a one order of magnitude higher peak performance than traditio...

Program dynamic optimization, adaptive to runtime behavior changes, has become increasingly important for both performance and energy savings. However, most runtime optimizations o...
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...
