High Performance Computing Application I/O Traces
The dataset comprises trace files from high performance computing (HPC) simulations. The trace files contain records of every I/O operation executed by a simulation application run, including I/O operations from HDF5, MPI-IO, and POSIX and all of the parameters supplied to those operations, e.g. file name, offset, and flags. The traces are generated by executing a simulation application that is linked with the Recorder tracing tool (https://github.com/uiuc-hpc/Recorder). The Recorder trace tool intercepts the I/O calls made by the application, records the I/O trace record, and then calls the intended I/O call so that the operation executes.
