Abstract: Highlights•A middleware solution is proposed to optimize file fetch process in transparent computing (TC) environment.•The method solves the concurrency control problem when the file fetch is required for the multiple clients.•We propose a heuristic and greedy (HG) algorithm.•HG algorithm can reduce overall file fetch time roughly by 50% in the best cases compared with the time cost of traditional approaches.
