| Runtime System Optimizations for Highly Scalable Parallel I/O
Prof. Alok Choudhary's group has been involved in developing scalable I/O techniques for large-scale systems. They have developed techniques that capture and use access pattern information at runtime to reorganize access patterns which are highly optimized for performing I/O; perform runtime level caching to reduce number of I/O accesses; and reduce synchronization and locking requirements (which are used by conservative techniques to account for worst case) to minimize overheads that hinder performance. We have established a collaboration with this group to do further research on scalable parallel I/O, and apply these results to Blue Gene/L. · Blue Gene | ||||||
