Author of the paper here. The file operations are distributed strictly without links, otherwise we could make no guarantees that work wouldn't be duplicated, or even that the algorithm would terminate. We were lucky in that because the parallel file system itself wasn't POSIX, so we didn't have to make our tools POSIX either. |
