Input/Output in Parallel and Distributed Computer Systems

Input/Output in Parallel and Distributed Computer Systems edited by Ravi Jain, John Werth, James C. Browne.

Input/Output in Parallel and Distributed Computer Systems has attracted increasing attention over the last few years, as it has become apparent that input/output performance, rather than CPU performance, may be the key limiting factor in the performance of future systems. This I/O bottleneck is caus...
