A distributed hypercube file system
Robert J. Flynn, Haldun Hadimioglu · 1988
For the hypercube, an autonomous physically interconnected file system is proposed. The resulting distributed file system consists of an I/O organization and a software interface. The system is loosely-coupled architecturally but from operating systems point of view a tightly-coupled system is formed in which interprocessor messages are handled differently from file accesses. A matrix multiplication algorithm is given to show how the distributed file system is utilized.
