ROMIO at SC 2018

November 6, 2018 by Latham, Robert J.

If you would like to learn more about I/O in High Performance Computing, come check out our SC 2018 tutorial Parallel I/O in Practice. We will cover the hardware and software that makes up the software stack on large parallel computers. MPI-IO takes up a big chunk of time, as do the I/O libraries which typically sit on top of MPI-IO.
If you are interested in ROMIO, you hopefully are familiar with Darshan for collecting statistics and otherwise characterizing you your I/O patterns. These other Darshan-related events will likely be of interest to you:

Glenn Lockwood will be presenting “A Year in the Life of a Parallel File System” SC18 technical program paper.
Jakob Luettgau et al. “Toward Understanding I/O Behavior in HPC Workflows”, PDSW workshop paper.
Philip Carns et al. “Analyzing Parallel I/O”, Birds of a Feather session.

And HDF5, which frequently sits atop ROMIO, will be having a Birds of a Feather session Wedesday.
