High performance file system for supercomputing environment
Pages 747 - 756
Abstract
SUPER-UX is a high performance UNIX operating system for NEC SX-3/SX-X supercomputer and has many enhanced facilities to make available the maximum SX-3/SX-X computing power (peek speed of 22GFLOPS) to users. This paper presents the SUPER-UX file system, a strong point of SUPER-UX, which is based on the standard UNIX file system to satisfy scientific computing environment requirements for I/O performance and facilities.
