Description

The tremendous need for storage capacity and I/O performance has become a
critical factor for computing systems, generally, from enterprise systems to
computational science and everything in between. As a result, disk I/O and
data storage on which data reside have clearly become "first class citizens"
in the modern information world. In addition, parallelism is now ubiquitous
in computing, from multi-core processors within a single enclosure to
massively parallel I/O systems that span many racks of equipment. SNAPI08
brings together experts from academia and industry to discuss cutting edge
research on parallel and distributed data storage technologies, storage
interconnects, and storage management.
