  abstract = {Recently, there have been many efforts to get high performance in
  cluster computing with inexpensive PCs connected through high-speed networks.
  Some of them were to provide high bandwidth and parallelism in file service
  using a distributed file system. Other researches for distributed file
  systems include the cooperative cache that reduces servers' load and improves
  overall performance. The cooperative cache shares file caches among clients
  so that a client can request a file to another client, not to the server,
  through inter-client message passing. In various distributed file systems,
  PVFS (Parallel Virtual File System) provides high performance with parallel
  I/O in Linux widely used in cluster computing. However, PVFS doesn't support
  any file cache facility. This paper describes the design and implementation
  of the cooperative cache for PVFS (Coopc-PVFS). We show the efficiency of
  Coopc-PVFS in comparison to original PVFS. As a result, the response time of
  Coopc-PVFS is shorter than or similar to that of original PVFS.}
