Extended Abstract.}, URL = {http://www.cacr.caltech.edu/~rajesh/siam97.ps}, keywords = {parallel I/O, compiler, out-of-core, pario-bib}, abstract = {Since many of large scale computational problems usually deal with large quantities of data, optimizing the performance of I/O subsystems of massively parallel machines is an important challenge for system designers. We describe data access reorganization strategies for efficient compilation of out-of-core data-parallel programs on distributed memory machines. Our analytical approach and experimental results indicate that the optimizations introduced in this paper can reduce the amount of time spent in I/O by as much as an order of magnitude on both uniprocessors and multicomputers.} }
