Using Shared Memory Multiprocessors in High -Performance Networks Protocol Processing

本研究探讨并评价了平行词的使用 网络主机协议处理中的处理和并行性， 通过理论分析和实验相结合， 实施、测量和评估一个垂直的 集成的主机协议功能集。 的实现方式 使用Sequent和Silicon Graphics共享内存多处理器， 通过FDDI连接，以及修改后的MACH操作系统内核。 这项工作考虑了一个完整的 协议栈，重点是网络访问、传输和 表示层功能。

This research explores and evaluates the use of parallel processing and parallelism in network host protocol processing, through a combination of theoretical analysis and experimental implementation, measurement, and evaluation of a vertically integrated set of host protocol functions. The implementations use Sequent and Silicon Graphics shared memory multiprocessors, connected via FDDI, and a modified MACH operating system kernel. The work considers the protocol functionality of a complete protocol stack, with emphasis on network access, transport, and presentation layer functions.
