Driven by artificial intelligence, data science, and high-resolution simulations, I/O workloads and hardware on high-performance computing (HPC) systems have become increasingly complex. This complexity can lead to large I/O overheads and…

The recent years witness a trend of applying large-scale distributed deep learning in both business and scientific computing areas, whose goal is to speed up the training time to achieve a state-of-the-art quality. The HPC community feels a…

I/O efficiency is crucial to productivity in scientific computing, but the increasing complexity of the system and the applications makes it difficult for practitioners to understand and optimize I/O behavior at scale. Data-driven machine…

Modern machine learning training is increasingly bottlenecked by data I/O rather than compute. GPUs often sit idle at below 50% utilization waiting for data. This paper presents a machine learning approach to predict I/O performance and…

Benchmarking and performance analysis play an important role in understanding the behaviour of iterative optimization heuristics (IOHs) such as local search algorithms, genetic and evolutionary algorithms, Bayesian optimization algorithms,…

The semantics of HPC storage systems are defined by the consistency models to which they abide. Storage consistency models have been less studied than their counterparts in memory systems, with the exception of the POSIX standard and its…

Data-intensive computing has become one of the major workloads on traditional high-performance computing (HPC) clusters. Currently, deploying data-intensive computing software framework on HPC clusters still faces performance and…

In recent years, with the trend of applying deep learning (DL) in high performance scientific computing, the unique characteristics of emerging DL workloads in HPC raise great challenges in designing, implementing HPC AI systems. The…

Growing interest in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has resulted in a surge in demand for faster methods of Machine Learning (ML) model training and inference. This demand for speed has prompted the use of high performance computing (HPC)…

This paper presents Recorder, a parallel I/O tracing tool designed to capture comprehensive I/O information on HPC applications. Recorder traces I/O calls across various I/O layers, storing all function parameters for each captured call.…

Cloud block storage systems support diverse types of applications in modern cloud services. Characterizing their I/O activities is critical for guiding better system designs and optimizations. In this paper, we present an in-depth…

We present DIO, a generic tool for observing inefficient and erroneous I/O interactions between applications and in-kernel storage systems that lead to performance, dependability, and correctness issues. DIO facilitates the analysis and…

The first OpenFOAM HPC Challenge (OHC-1) was organised by the OpenFOAM HPC Technical Committee (HPCTC) to collect a snapshot of OpenFOAM's computational performance on contemporary production hardware and to compare hardware-constrained…

In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis investigating the reliability of SSD-based I/O caching architectures used in enterprise storage systems under power failure and high-operating temperature. We explore variety of SSDs from…

This paper presents yet another concurrency control analysis platform, CCBench. CCBench supports seven protocols (Silo, TicToc, MOCC, Cicada, SI, SI with latch-free SSN, 2PL) and seven versatile optimization methods and enables the…

Object-based parallel file systems have emerged as promising storage solutions for high-performance computing (HPC) systems. Despite the fact that object storage provides a flexible interface, scheduling highly concurrent I/O requests that…

Oracle Exadata consolidates thousands of tenant databases onto shared storage infrastructure deployed at hundreds of customer sites worldwide. Oracle Multitenant architecture enables this extreme density, with thousands of tenant databases…

Parallel applications can spend a significant amount of time performing I/O on large-scale supercomputers. Fast near-compute storage accelerators called burst buffers can reduce the time a processor spends performing I/O and mitigate I/O…

As storage systems become increasingly heterogeneous and complex, it adds burdens on DBAs, causing suboptimal performance even after a lot of human efforts have been made. In addition, existing monitoring-based storage management by access…

Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) are artifacts observed on a network or in an operating system that can be utilized to indicate a computer intrusion and detect cyber-attacks in an early stage. Thus, they exert an important role in the field…
