Multicore processors have not only reintroduced Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) architectures in nowadays parallel computers, but they are also responsible for non-uniform access ...
This paper proposes a packet partition scheduling mechanism for bandwidth aggregation over end-to-end multi-path through multiple network interfaces. The proposed mechanism effect...
User-level communication alleviates the software overhead of the communication subsystem by allowing applications to access the network interface directly. For that purpose, effici...
This paper presents a connection handoff interface between the operating system and the network interface. Using this interface, the operating system can offload a subset of TCP c...
A challenge facing designers of systems on chip (SoC) containing networks on chip (NoC) is to find NoC instances that balance the cost (e.g. area) and performance (e.g. latency an...
The evaluation of new network server architectures is usually performed experimentally using either a simulator or a hardware prototype. Accurate simulation of the hardwaresoftwar...
Networks of workstations and high-performance microcomputers have been rarely used for running highperformance applicationslike multimedia, simulations,scientific and engineering ...
We systematically evaluate the performance of five implementations of a single, user-level communication interface. Each implementation makes different architectural assumptions ...
Recent advances in commodity network interface technology enable scientists and engineers to build clusters of workstations or PCs to execute parallel applications. However, raw-h...
Clusters of workstations have emerged as an important platform for building cost-effective, scalable, and highlyavailable computers. Although many hardware solutions are available...
