Abstract100Gbps networking has finally arrived, and many research and educational institutions have begun to deploy 100Gbps routers and services. ESnet and Internet2 worked together to make 100Gbps networks available to researchers at the Supercomputing 2011 conference in Seattle Washington. In this paper, we describe two of the first applications to take advantage of this network. We demonstrate a visualization application that enables remotely located scientists to gain insights from large datasets. We also demonstrate climate data movement and analysis over the 100Gbps network. We describe a number of application design issues and host tuning strategies necessary for enabling applications to scale to 100Gbps rates.

A scheme for high-speed data transfer via the Internet for Web service in an extremely large delay environment is proposed. With the wide-spread use of Internet services in recent years, WLAN Internet service in high-speed trains has commenced. The system for this is composed of a satellite communication system between the train and the ground station, which is characterized by extremely large latency of several hundred milliseconds due to long propagation latency. High-speed web access is not available to users in a train in such an extremely large latency network system. Thus, a prefetch scheme for performance acceleration of Web services in this environment is proposed. A test-bed system that implements the proposed scheme is implemented and is its performance in this test-bed is evaluated. The proposed scheme is verified to enable high-speed Web access in the extremely large delay environment compared to conventional schemes.

“…Some NICs have a function to set the inter frame gap by writing a requested value into a certain register. T. Yoshino, et al, reported that precise pacing using this type of functionality is effective in optimizing performance of TCP/IP over 10 Gigabit Ethernet [4]. However, the method cannot control the transmission rate per stream.…”

Abstract-Packet pacing is a well-known technique for reducing the short-time-scale burstiness of traffic, and software-based packet pacing has been categorized into two approaches: a timer interrupt-based approach and a gap packet-based approach. The former was hard to implement for Gigabit class networks because it requires the operating system to maintain a microsecond resolution timer per stream, thus incurring a large overhead. On the other hand, a gap packet-based packet pacing mechanism achieves precise pacing without depending on the timer resolution. However, in order to guarantee the accuracy of rate control, the system had to have the capability to transmit packets at the wire rate. In this paper, we propose a high-resolution timerbased packet pacing mechanism that determines the transmission timing of packets by using a sub-microsecond resolution timer. With recent progress in hardware protocol offload technologies and multicore-aware network protocol stacks, we believe highresolution timer-based packet pacing has become practical. Our experimental results show that the proposed mechanism can work on a wider range of systems without degradation of the accuracy of rate control. However, a higher CPU load is observed when the number of traffic classes increases, compared to a gap packetbased pacing mechanism.
