A Distribution Network for Free Software
The Globe Distribution Network (GDN) is an application for the efficient, worldwide distribution of freely redistributable software packages. Distribution is made efficient by encapsulating the software into special distributed objects which efficiently replicate themselves near to the downloading clients. The Globe Distribution Network takes a novel, optimistic approach to stop the illegal dis...
متن کاملAn Adaptive File Distribution Algorithm for Wide Area Network
This paper describes a data distribution algorithm suitable for copying large files to many nodes in multiple clusters in wide-area networks. It is a self-organizing algorithm that achieves pipeline transfers, fault tolerance, scalability, and an efficient route selection. It works in the presence of today’s typical network restrictions such as firewalls and Network Address Translations, making...
متن کاملWide Area Network Ecology
In an ideal world the need to provide data communications between facilities separated by a large ocean would be filled simply. One would estimate the bandwidth requirement, place an order with a global telecommunications company, then just hook up routers on each end and start using the link. Our experience was considerably more painful, primarily due to three factors: 1) The behavior of some ...
متن کاملBlazenet: A Photonic Implementable Wide-Area Network
High-performance wide-area networks are required to interconnect clusters of computers connected by local area and metropolitan area networks. Optical fiber technology provides long distance channels in the multi-gigabit per second range. The challenge is to provide switching nodes that handle these data rates with minimum delay, and at a reasonable cost. In this paper, we describe a packet swi...
متن کاملDelayline: A Wide-Area Network Emulation Tool
Programming distributed applications is already potentially difficult, although tools exist to aid in their creation. Applications developed to communicate over local area networks can expect to enjoy highly reliable communications with minimal latency. However, such applications may no longer continue to perform as expected if moved to a wide-area network environment, due to the reduced perfor...
