  abstract = {Datasets up to terabyte size and petabyte total capacities have
  created a serious imbalance between I/O and storage-system performance and
  system functionality. One promising approach is the use of parallel
  data-transfer techniques for client access to storage,
  peripheral-to-peripheral transfers, and remote file transfers. This paper
  describes the parallel I/O architecture and mechanisms, parallel transport
  protocol (PTP), parallel FTP, and parallel client application programming
  interface (API) used by the high-performance storage system (HPSS). Parallel
  storage integration issues with a local parallel file system are also
  discussed.}
