High Performance Parallel I/O

In this book, leading practitioners, researchers, software architects, developers, and scientists offer insight on the parallel I/O ecosystem. The book explains how large-scale HPC facilities scope, configure, and operate systems. It covers the file system layer, middleware, user-facing libraries, real-world scientific applications that use the parallel I/O infrastructure, and profiling and benchmarking tools used by practitioners. The book also addresses the implications of current trends in HPC..
