Multi-core systems are the current dominant trend in computer processors. However, kernel network layers often do not fully exploit multi-core architectures. This is due to issues...
We systematically evaluate the performance of five implementations of a single, user-level communication interface. Each implementation makes different architectural assumptions ...
As commodity components continue to dominate the realm of high-end computing, two hardware trends have emerged as major contributors—high-speed networking technologies and multi...
