The Scalable I/O Initiative
PASSION: Parallel And Scalable Software for I/O
A compiler and runtime support system. PASSION software support is targeted for I/O intensive out-of-core loosely synchronous problems. The PASSION Runtime Library provides routines to efficiently perform the I/O required in out-of-core programs. The goal of the PASSION compiler is to translate out-of-core programs written in a data-parallel language like High Performance Fortran (HPF) to node programs with calls to the PASSION Runtime Library for I/O. Other components of the PASSION project include a Portable Parallel File System (VIP-FS), integrating task and data parallelizm using parallel I/O and file servers for multimedia applications.

Details of mailing list for parallel I/O research. This new list is intended for individuals interested in research about parallel-I/O systems and algorithms, including file systems, architectures, out-of-core algorithms, compiler techniques, language extensions, run-time support, APIs, application requirements and workload characterization, disk arrays, tape striping, and perhaps graphics and networking.
