Abstract: System Area Networks (SANs), such as Myricom Myrinet and IBM Vulcan, provide latency, bandwidth, and reliability that
are orders of magnitude better than traditional local area networks. SAN benefits are, however, proffered to applications only
if light-weight protocols (not TCP/IP) and efficient network interfaces are used. SAN benefits are squandered, for example, if
applications must invoke the operating system to send and receive messages. In contrast, User-level Network Interfaces
(ULNIs)... (Update)
