SIG-IO-UK September

This workshop is the second meeting of the special interest group for high-performance I/O in the UK. It brings together: storage vendors, system and middleware developers, and users of data-intensive workloads in order to develop strategies for research, funding but also product development. It covers all aspects of data access and management including I/O workflow handling, parallel file systems, middleware, data compression, tuning, performance monitoring, novel interfaces, storage technology, data center perspectives.

This workshop is composed of two parts: A) presentations: Participants present relevant RD&E in this field and discuss opportunities to bring forward the research in the UK to stimulate the later discussion. Talks include challenges faced dealing with I/O and ongoing activities to overcome these challenges. Vendor talks focus on technical solutions for certain challenges accompanied by use cases demonstrating the benefit. B) preparation of a whitepaper about future perspective for interfaces, this is composed of: 1) collection of requirements/challenges for future workflows. Example workflows for climate/weather will be given to stimulate the discussion. 2) design and architectural sketches how could we meet the requirements.
