Over the course of this decade, uniprocessor chips have given way to multi-core chips which have become the primary building blocks of today's computer systems. The presence o...
— Explicit congestion control schemes use router feedback to overcome limitations of the standard mechanisms of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). These approaches require ...
—The delivery of latency sensitive packets is a crucial issue in real time applications of communication networks. Such packets often have a firm deadline and a packet becomes u...
Internet protocol (IP) traffic follows rules established by routing protocols. Shortest path based protocols, such as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), direct traffic based on arc w...

Multiprocessor architectures demand efficient interprocessor communication to maximize system utilization and performance. To meet future demands, these interconnects must communic...
—Aggressive research on gigabit-per-second networks has led to dramatic improvements in network transmission speeds. One result of these improvements has been to put pressure on ...

Internet transmission and switching facilities are partitioned into different administrative domains. To effect routing between domains, domain border routers establish pairwise p...
We recognize two trends in router design: increasing pressure to extend the set of services provided by the router and increasing diversity in the hardware components used to cons...
