Requirements of emerging applications together with rapid changes in networking technology towards gigabit speeds require new adequate transport systems. Integrated designs of transport services, protocol architecture, and implementation platforms are needed for the requirements of forthcoming applications in high-speed network environments. The transport subsystem PATROCLOS (parallel transport...

We introduce an internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) audio conferencing tool implemented using MPEG-1 layer 3 (MP3) codec. In this paper, we present the software architecture, hurdles and tactics while developing the application based on existing modules like public MP3 encoder/decoder and real-time transport protocol (RTP)/ real-time transport control protocol (RTCP) implementation. And some exp...

To improve the scalability of InfiniBand on large scale clusters Open MPI introduced a protocol known as B-SRQ [2]. This protocol was shown to provide much better memory utilization of send and receive buffers for a wide variety of benchmarks and real-world applications. Unfortunately B-SRQ increases the number of connections between communicating peers. While addressing one scalability problem...

With the ever-increasing network data rates available, the throughput achieved on a connection over a fast network using a transport protocol such as TCP/ IP can easily be limited by the speed of the processor used to implement the transport protocol, rather than the network data rate. Distributing TCP/IP protocol processing over several processors in a distributed-memory parallel computer, the...

We propose and estimate a novel transport layer mobility management scheme: Seamless IP diversity based Generalized Mobility Architecture (SIGMA). SIGMA provides seamless handover for mobile hosts and is based on Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), which is a new dependable transport protocol to transport SS7 signaling messages over IP network. We also show that our handover scheme can...
