Abstract: An I/O intensive application, parallel full text retrieval
based on a signature file method, is studied. The text retrieval
system is implemented on a cluster of DEC5000 workstations
connected by Ethernet. Experiments are performed
to evaluate the benefit and cost for running such an application
in a workstation cluster. Results show that substantial
improvement in speed can be obtained through parallelism in
disk accesses, despite the high communication and synchronization
overhead that is... (Update)
