Abstract
Students are exposed to various computer languages by means of introductory courses and texts. Often times, they do not have an adequate amount of time to become highly proficient in all aspects of a language. In the battle against time, often the material relating to file processing is omitted. This paper is about a course devoted entirely to file processing techniques as approached from several languages.

A multiple-file write scheme for improving write performance of small files in Fast File System
Fast File System (FFS) stores files to disk in separate disk writes, each of which incurs a disk positioning (seek + rotation) limiting the write performance for small files. We propose a new scheme called co-writing to accelerate small file writes in ...
Research of Massive Small Files Reading Optimization Based on Parallel Network File System
HPCC-CSS-ICESS '15: Proceedings of the 2015 IEEE 17th International Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications, 2015 IEEE 7th International Symposium on Cyberspace Safety and Security, and 2015 IEEE 12th International Conf on Embedded Software and SystemsWith the rapid development of cloud computing and big data, there are more and more small files. How to manage those massive small files efficiently and provide low-latency service is becoming a hot topic in Parallel Network File System (pNFS). When ...
