The SGI Origin: A ccNUMA highly scalable server

by James Laudon, Daniel Lenoski - In Proceedings of the 24th International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA’97 , 1997
"... The SGI Origin 2000 is a cache-coherent non-uniform memory access (ccNUMA) multiprocessor designed and manufactured by Silicon Graphics, Inc. The Origin system was designed from the ground up as a multiprocessor capable of scaling to both small and large processor counts without any bandwidth, laten ..."

the Origin 2000 and then describes its architecture and implementation. In addition, performance results are presented for the NAS Parallel Benchmarks V2.2 and the SPLASH2 applications. Finally, the Origin system is compared to other contemporary commercial ccNUMA systems. 1

The cascade-correlation learning architecture

by Scott E. Fahlman, Christian Lebiere - Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 2 , 1990
"... Cascade-Correlation is a new architecture and supervised learning algorithm for artificial neural networks. Instead of just adjusting the weights in a network of fixed topology, Cascade-Correlation begins with a minimal network, then automatically trains and adds new hidden units one by one, creatin ..."

Towards an Active Network Architecture

by David L. Tennenhouse, David J. Wetherall - Computer Communication Review , 1996
"... Active networks allow their users to inject customized programs into the nodes of the network. An extreme case, in which we are most interested, replaces packets with "capsules" -- program fragments that are executed at each network router/switch they traverse. Active architectures permit ..."

, they will accelerate the pace of innovation by decoupling network services from the underlying hardware and allowing new services to be loaded into the infrastructure on demand. In this paper, we describe our vision of an active network architecture, outline our approach to its design, and survey the technologies

The BSD Packet Filter: A New Architecture for User-level Packet Capture

by Steven Mccanne, Van Jacobson , 1992
"... Many versions of Unix provide facilities for user-level packet capture, making possible the use of general purpose workstations for network monitoring. Because network monitors run as user-level processes, packets must be copied across the kernel/user-space protection boundary. This copying can be m ..."

The original Unix packet filter was designed around a stack-based filter evaluator that performs sub-optimally on current RISC CPUs. The BSD Packet Filter (BPF) uses a new, registerbased

SEDA: An Architecture for Well-Conditioned, Scalable Internet Services

by Matt Welsh, David Culler, Eric Brewer , 2001

The x-Kernel: An Architecture for Implementing Network Protocols

by Norman C. Hutchinson, Larry L. Peterson - IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering , 1991
"... This paper describes a new operating system kernel, called the x-kernel, that provides an explicit architecture for constructing and composing network protocols. Our experience implementing and evaluating several protocols in the x-kernel shows that this architecture is both general enough to acc ..."

ALLIANCE: An Architecture for Fault Tolerant Multi-Robot Cooperation

by Lynne E. Parker - IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation , 1998
"... ALLIANCE is a software architecture that fa- cilitates the fault tolerant cooperative control of teams of heterogeneous mobile robots performing missions composed of loosely coupled subtasks that may have ordering dependencies. ALLIANCE allows teams of robots, each of which possesses a variety of hi ..."
Abstract - Cited by 508 (13 self) - Add to MetaCart
architecture allows the robot team members to respond robustly, reliably, flexibly, and coherently to unexpected environmental changes and modifications in the robot team that may occur due to mechanical failure, the learning of new skills, or the addition or removal of robots from the team by human

Transactional Memory: Architectural Support for Lock-Free Data Structures

by Maurice Herlihy, J. Eliot B. Moss
"... A shared data structure is lock-free if its operations do not require mutual exclusion. If one process is interrupted in the middle of an operation, other processes will not be prevented from operating on that object. In highly concurrent systems, lock-free data structures avoid common problems asso ..."

This paper introduces transactional memory, a new multiprocessor architecture intended to make lock-free synchronization as efficient (and easy to use) as conventional techniques

RSVP: A New Resource Reservation Protocol

by Lixia Zhang, Stephen Deering, Deborah Estrin, Scott Shenker, et al. , 1993
"... Whe origin of the RSVP protocol can be traced back to 1991, when a team of network researchers, including myself, started playing with a number of packet scheduling algorithms on the DARTNET (DARPA Testbed NETwork), a network testbed made of open source, workstation-based routers. Because scheduling ..."

As stated in the article, “RSVP is primarily a vehicle
