DIBs, Data Buffers, and Distance: Understanding the Performance Characteristics of ESCON Links
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract: This paper will review the character set and frame structure employed to transmit channel programs, data, and status information over ESCON links. In addition, the performance aspects of the components of an ESCON adapter card will be discussed. Based on these conceptual discussions, a back-of-the-envelope model of ESCON frame traffic flow will be introduced which will be used to relate the performance aspects of DIB size, data buffer size, and ESCON transmission distance.

متن کاملDesigning and managing FICON inter-switch link infrastructures
In September 1990, the ESCON channel architecture was introduced to address the limitations of 4.5 MB/Sec parallel (bus and tag) channels. ESCON provided significant improvements in distance, data rate, switching topologies, as well as service time. From a historical perspective, ESCON was a highly successful storage network protocol for mainframe systems and was the first broadly deployed fibr...

متن کاملDIBS: a repository of disordered binding sites mediating interactions with ordered proteins
Motivation Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) mediate crucial protein-protein interactions, most notably in signaling and regulation. As their importance is increasingly recognized, the detailed analyses of specific IDP interactions opened up new opportunities for therapeutic targeting. Yet, large scale information about IDP-mediated interactions in structural and functional details are l...
متن کاملA Hybrid Approach for Fuzzy Just-In-Time Flow Shop Scheduling with Limited Buffers and Deteriorating Jobs
This paper investigates the problem of just-in-time permutation flow shop scheduling with limited buffers and linear job deterioration in an uncertain environment. The fuzzy set theory is applied to describe this situation. A novel mixed-integer nonlinear program is presented to minimize the weighted sum of fuzzy earliness and tardiness penalties. Due to the computational complexities, the prop...
