TLDR
GPFS is IBM's parallel, shared-disk file system for cluster computers, available on the RS/6000 SP parallel supercomputer and on Linux clusters, and discusses how distributed locking and recovery techniques were extended to scale to large clusters.Citations

Tagit: an integrated indexing and search service for file systems
TL;DR: TagIt is a scalable, distributed metadata indexing framework, using which it implement a flexible tagging capability to support data discovery, and can expedite data search by up to 10X over the extant decoupled approach.

RFS: efficient and flexible remote file access for MPI-IO
TL;DR: This work presents RFS, a high-performance remote I/O facility for ROMIO, which is a well-known MPI-IO implementation, which improves the remote I-O performance by adopting active buffering with threads (ABT), which hides I/o cost by aggressively buffering the output data using available memory and performing background I/W using threads while computation is taking place.

View-Based Collective I/O for MPI-IO
TL;DR: The evaluation section shows that view-based I/O outperforms the original two-phase collective I/W from ROMIO in most of the cases for three well-known parallel I-O benchmarks.

Improving Parallel I/O Performance with Data Layout Awareness
TL;DR: This study proposes a data layout-aware optimization strategy to promote a better integration of the parallel I/O middleware and parallel file systems, two major components of the current parallel I-O systems, and to improve the data access performance.

Scalability in the XFS file system
TL;DR: The architecture and design of a new file system, XFS, for Silicon Graphics' IRIX operating system is described, and the use of B+ trees in place of many of the more traditional linear file system structures are discussed.
