  abstract = {For an increasing number of data intensive scientific
  applications, parallel I/O concepts are a major performance issue. Tackling
  this issue, we provide an outline of an input/output system designed for
  highly efficient, scalable and conveniently usable parallel I/O on
  distributed memory systems. The main focus of this paper is the parallel I/O
  runtime system support provided for software-generated programs produced by
  parallelizing compilers in the context of High Performance FORTRAN efforts.
  Specifically, our design is presented in the context of the Vienna Fortran
  Compilation System.}
