The necklace hypercube has recently been introduced as an attractive alternative to the well-known hypercube. Previous research on this network topology has mainly focused on topo...
Abstract—The increasing number of cores per node in highperformance computing requires an efficient intra-node MPI communication subsystem. Most existing MPI implementations rel...
Ethernet line rates are projected to reach 100 Gbits/s by as soon as 2010. While in principle suitable for high performance clustered and parallel applications, Ethernet requires ...
In this paper we describe an analytical technique for the performance evaluation of wide-area networks carrying realistic TCP traffic, such as that produced by a large number of f...
