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)

.... in the field of high performance computing[15] 16] 17] 18] 19] Some file systems suitable for clusters have also been developed[20][21]. However, those file systems are designed for the front end of clusters, making use of remote mount through LAN. We have developed SAN...

...nested PITFALLS. For regular distributions, a set of nested FALLS can be shortly expressed using the nested PITFALLS representation [14, 7]. However, for the sake of simplicity, in this paper we will use only the nested FALLS representation, because each nested PITFALLS is...
