TY - JOUR AU - Dalton, C. AB - User-space protocols deliver high performance a low-cost Gb/s LAN Greg Watson, John Lumley, to applications on Aled Edwards, David Banks, Costas Calamvokis, Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, and Chris Dalton Filton Rd, Bristol, UK Abstract Two important questions in high-speed firstly, how to provide GbitJs networking secondly, how to provide a flexible face so that applications instant it arrives. low-level can control networking are at low cost and network interthe 1 Introduction Networks will soon have to support new applications such as videoconferencing, shared authoring and remote training which will need synchronisation of streams of audio, video and graphical information. These new applications will cause two important changes in networked systems. First, the networks themselves in which must offer new services that proand bounded access delay. Seccomputers handling process networked model of just one or all network traffic will vide guaranteed bandwidth ond, the way information their data from We describe some work that addresses both of these questions. The Jetstream Gbit/s LAN delay-sensitive traffic is an experimental, lowcost network interface that provides the services required by as well as meeting the performance of and more needs of current applications. Jetstream is a combination technology technology. will change: the traditional protocols TI - User-space protocols deliver high performance to applications on a low-cost Gb/s LAN DO - 10.1145/190314.190316 DA - 1994-10-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/association-for-computing-machinery/user-space-protocols-deliver-high-performance-to-applications-on-a-low-A4j1li2ChV DP - DeepDyve ER -
