Abstract. Myrinet is a new type of local-area network (LAN) based on the technology used for packet communication and switching within "massivelyparallel processors " (MPPs). Think of Myrinet as an MPP message-passing network that can span campus dimensions, rather than as a wide-area

In this paper we address the issues related to the delivery of multimedia streams on local area networks. Multimedia integrates voice and video along with text and images into existing systems. Local area networks were designed to handle regular data traffic which are bursty in nature and for which

Abstract—Based on the existing methods in the study of local area network in the fault diagnosis, this paper proposed the GMKL algorithm in the fault diagnosis application. In the GMKL training process, first of all, it should give the transformation and normalization of the collected data

A local area network (LAN) is a number of computers and computer peripherals (disc storage devices, printers) connected by high speed data lines within a building or adjacent buildings. LANs originated as ways of interconnecting diverse electronic equipment within an organisation, which would

Current technology trends make it possible to build communication networks that can support high performance distributed computing. This paper describes issues in the design of a prototype switch for an arbitrary topology point-to-point network with link speeds of up to one gigabit per second

This paper addresses the interconnection of local area networks (LANs) using bridges. The interconnec-tion problem is dicult to solve and feasible solutions are usually obtained through heuristics. The description of a simplified approach to solve the problem of interconnecting LANs is followed

Following the widespread use of the Internet, especially the World Wide Web since 1995, wireless networking has become a buzz word at the beginning of the new millennium. New terms such as wireless communications, wireless local area networks (WLANs), wireless web, wireless application protocols

We show how the traditional protocol stack, such as TCP/IP, can be eliminated for socket based high speed communication within a cluster. The SCI shared memory interconnect is used as an example, and we demonstrate how existing applications can utilize the new technology without relinking. This is done by dynamically remapping the TCP/IP socket implementation to our high performance SCILAN sockets. We describe a novel mechanism for synchronization of communication through shared memory, aimed at minimizing the interrupt load on the receiving system. We discuss the implementation and present an evaluation with comparison to alternative technologies, such as 100baseT and ATM. Significant improvement over current solutions are shown both in terms of throughput and latency.
