Abstract: Caching is a technique intensively used in memory and traditional file systems to improve system performance. However, the use of caching in parallel file systems has been limited to I/O nodes to avoid cache coherence problems. In this paper we present the cache policies implemented in ParFiSys, a parallel file system developed at the UPM. ParFiSys exploits the use of cache both at computing nodes and I/O nodes, with aggressive prefetching and delayed-write techniques. The cache coherence... (Update)
