The Armada Framework for Parallel I/O on Computational Grids
Overview An exciting trend in high-performance distributed computing is the development of widely-distributed networks of heterogeneous systems and devices, known as computational grids. Grid applications use high-speed networks to logically assemble collections of resources such as scientific instruments, supercomputers, databases, and so forth. One important challenge facing grid computing is efficient parallel I/O for data-intensive grid applications. This paper presents the Armada framework for building I/O-access paths for data-intensive grid applications.
