چکیده

A major source of performance degradation in highperformance distributed applications has been attributed to poor end-to-end TCP performance. The root causes of poor TCP performance are difficult to isolate and diagnose, and the efficacy of tuning efforts are often difficult to gauge. This paper describes some sources of poor TCP performance, and describes a method to diagnose some of these problems based on a combination of existing performance tools and the Web100 tuning package. Using this methodology, the TCP performance of an application developed for the Visible Human project is shown to significantly improve.

Extended Abstract 1 Experiences Using Web100 for End-to-End Network Performance Tuning for Visible Human Testbeds

A major source of performance degradation in highperformance distributed applications has been attributed to poor end-to-end Transport Control Protocol (TCP) performance. The root causes of poor TCP performance are difficult to isolate and diagnose, and the efficacy of tuning efforts are often difficult to gauge. This paper describes sources of poor TCP performance, and suggests a method to dia...

Pathdiag: Automated TCP Diagnosis

This paper describes a tool to diagnose network performance problems commonly affecting TCP-based applications. The tool, pathdiag, runs under a web server framework to provide non-expert network users with one-click diagnostic testing, tuning support and repair instructions. It diagnoses many causes of poor network performance using Web100 statistics and TCP performance models to overcome the ...

Prediction of Surface Roughness by Hybrid Artificial Neural Network and Evolutionary Algorithms in End Milling

Machining processes such as end milling are the main steps of production which have major effect on the quality and cost of products. Surface roughness is one of the considerable factors that production managers tend to implement in their decisions. In this study, an artificial neural network is proposed to minimize the surface roughness by tuning the conditions of machining process such as cut...

Integrated Characterization and a Tuning Strategy for the PVT Analysis of Representative Fluids in a Gas Condensate Reservoir

Gas condensate reservoirs are characterized by a distinctive retrograde behavior and potential for condensate drop out during production and sampling. Efficient modeling of gas condensate reservoir requires careful phase behavior studies of samples collected prior to and during the production life of reservoir. In this work, an integrated characterization and tuning algorithm is proposed to ana...
