    abstract = {In other papers I propose the idea of disk-directed I/O for
multiprocessor file systems. Those papers focus on the performance advantages
and capabilities of disk-directed I/O, but say little about the
application-programmer's interface or about the interface between the compute
processors and I/O processors. In this short note I discuss the requirements
for these interfaces, and look at many existing interfaces for parallel file
systems. I conclude that many of the existing interfaces could be adapted for
use in a disk-directed I/O system.},
