Cluster-based and iSCSI-based storage systems rely on standard TCP/IP-over-Ethernet for client access to data. Unfortunately, when data is striped over multiple networked storage ...
— An analytical model is proposed to describe the priority schemes of the Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) mechanism of the IEEE 802.11e standard. EDCA provides class-b...
Abstract. Cluster-based storage systems connected with TCP/IP networks are expected to achieve a high throughput by striping files across multiple storage servers. However, for th...
In this paper, we generalize the random access game model, and show that it provides a general game-theoretic framework for designing contention based medium access control. We ext...
This paper investigates the protocol overhead pipelining between the host and network interface card (NIC). Existing researches into the protocol overhead pipelining assume that p...
