Hardware/Software Organization of a High-Performance ATM Host Interface
Concurrent increases in network bandwidths and processor speeds have created a performance bottleneck at the workstation-to-network host interface . This is especially true for BISDN networks where the fixed length ATM cell is mismatched with application requirements for data transfer; a successful hardware/software architecture will resolve such differences and offer high end-to-end performanc...
متن کاملImplementation and Performance of An ATM Host Interface for Workstations
This brief paper outlines our strategies for providing a hardware and software solution to interfacing hosts to high-performance networks. Our prototype implementation connects an IBM RS/6000 to a SONET-based ATM network carrying data at the OC-3c rate of 155Mbps. We have measured application-to-network data rates of up to 130 Mbps.

متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of an ATM Host Interface
We have previously reported a design for a host interface board intended to connect workstations to ATM networks, and an implementation that was underway. Since then, we have made some modifications to the hardware architecture (mainly to support the Class 4 ATM Adaptation Layer), nearly completed the hardware implementation, and implemented software support. Our prototype connects an IBM RS/60...
متن کاملA Host Interface Architecture and Implementation for ATM Networks
The advent of high speed networks has increased demands on processor architectures. These architectural demands are due to the increase in network bandwidth relative to the speeds of processor components. One important component for a high-performance system is the workstation-to-network "host interface". The solution presented in this thesis migrates a carefully selected set of protocol proces...
