A case study of Web server benchmarking using parallel WAN emulation

This paper describes the use of a parallel discrete-event network emulator called the Internet Protocol Traffic and Network Emulator (IP-TNE) for Web server benchmarking. The experiments in this paper demonstrate the feasibility of highperformance WAN emulation using parallel discrete-event simulation techniques on a single shared-memory multiprocessor. Our experiments with an Apache Web
