In this paper, a novel workflow-aware distributed versioning file system, WAD-VFS is presented to overcome the shortcoming of traditional DFS and facilitate the high performance computing. Our preliminary simulation results are impressive and can hence serve as a supporting evidence of deploying WAD-VFS to our ongoing metacomputing project, Trellis system.
