It is now generally accepted that for a large number of applications a system's global performance is affected if the transfer rate between computing units and storage devices is not fast enough. Throughout this thesis, we develop the idea that it is possible to design a universal and efficient I/O system within a scalable context if some given directives are followed from its conception. Our research integrates all of an I/O system's components. We first choose a hardware architecture which is suitable for the diverse types of I/O requests found in parallel applications. We present an architecture that is both universal and scalable that allows maximising parallelism. Secondly, we use our own micro-kernel, ParX, that offers basic mechanism...
