Abstract: Massively parallel computers are increasingly being used to solve large, I/O intensive applications in many different fields. For such applications, the I/O requirements quite often present a significant obstacle in the way of achieving good performance, and an important area of current research is the development of techniques by which these costs can be reduced. One such approach is collective I/O, where the processors cooperatively develop an I/O strategy that reduces the number, and... (Update)
