  abstract = {Improvements in the processing speed of multiprocessors are
  outpacing improvements in the speed of disk hardware. Parallel disk I/O
  subsystems have been proposed as one way to close the gap between processor
  and disk speeds. In a previous paper we showed that prefetching and caching
  have the potential to deliver the performance benefits of parallel file
  systems to parallel applications. In this paper we describe experiments with
  practical prefetching policies that base decisions only on on-line reference
  history, and that can be implemented efficiently. We also test the ability of
  these policies across a range of architectural parameters.},
