Experiences with a High-Speed Network Adaptor: A Software Perspective
, 1994
"... This paper describes our experiences, from a software perspective, with the OSIRIS network adaptor. It first identifies the problems we encountered while programming OSIRIS and optimizing network performance, and outlines how we either addressed them in the software, or had to modify the hardware. I ..."

, gives application programs running in user space direct access to the adaptor. The paper concludes with the lessons drawn from this work, which we believe will benefit the designers of future network adaptors. 1 Introduction With the emergence of high-speed network facilities, several research efforts
Virtual clock: A new traffic control algorithm for packet switching networks
- In Proc. ACM SIGCOMM
, 1990
"... A challenging research issue in high speed networking is how to control the transmission rate of statistical data P OWS. This paper describes a new algorithm, Virtual-Clock, for data trafic control in high-speed networks. VirtualClock maintains the statistical multiplexing flexibility of packet swit ..."

Resource Containers: A New Facility for Resource Management in Server Systems
- In Operating Systems Design and Implementation
, 1999
"... General-purpose operating systems provide inadequate support for resource management in large-scale servers. Applications lack sufficient control over scheduling and management of machine resources, which makes it difficult to enforce priority policies, and to provide robust and controlled service. ..."

coincide in the process abstraction. This coincidence prevents a process that manages large numbers of network connections, for example, from properly allocating system resources among those connections. We propose and evaluate a new operating system abstraction called a resource container, which separates

An Integrated Experimental Environment for Distributed Systems and Networks
- In Proc. of the Fifth Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation
, 2002
"... Three experimental environments traditionally support network and distributed systems research: network emulators, network simulators, and live networks. The continued use of multiple approaches highlights both the value and inadequacy of each. Netbed, a descendant of Emulab, provides an experimenta ..."

an experimentation facility that integrates these approaches, allowing researchers to configure and access networks composed of emulated, simulated, and wide-area nodes and links. Netbed's primary goals are ease of use, control, and realism, achieved through consistent use of virtualization and abstraction.
Globus: A Metacomputing Infrastructure Toolkit
- International Journal of Supercomputer Applications

On the Self-similar Nature of Ethernet Traffic (Extended Version)
, 1994
"... We demonstrate that Ethernet LAN traffic is statistically self-similar, that none of the commonly used traffic models is able to capture this fractal-like behavior, that such behavior has serious implications for the design, control, and analysis of high-speed, cell-based networks, and that aggrega ..."
