Abstract: This paper presents Clusterfile, a parallel file system that
provides parallel file access on a cluster of computers. Existing
parallel file systems offer little control over matching
the I/O access patterns and file data layout. Without this
matching the applications may face the following problems:
contention at I/O nodes, fragmentation of file data, false
sharing, small network messages, high overhead of scattering
/gathering the data. Clusterfile addresses some of these
inefficiencies.... (Update)
