PIOUS: a scalable parallel I/O system for distributed computing environments

Abstract
PIOUS is a parallel file system architecture thatprovides cost-effective, scalable bandwidth in a networkcomputing environment. PIOUS employs data declustering,to exploit the combined file I/O and buffercache capacities of networked computing resources,and transaction-based concurrency control, to guaranteeaccess consistency without explicit synchronization.This paper presents preliminary results from aprototype PIOUS implementation.1 IntroductionParallel programming environments...
