  comment = {They use a simulator to evaluate the performance of a parallel I/O
  system. They simulate the network and disks under a synthetic workload, and
  measure the time it takes for I/O requests to traverse the network, be
  processed, and return. They also measure the impact of I/O requests on
  non-I/O messages. Their results are fairly unsurprising.}
