The Macramé 1024 Node Switching Network: Status and Future Prospects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Within the framework of the MACRAMÉ Esprit project a large switching network is being constructed using IEEE 1355 DS link technology. The final system will allow the systematic study of the performance of a 1024 node testbed using a variety of network topologies and traffic patterns, including those met in High Energy Physics trigger and data acquisition applications. The status of the project and some preliminary results are presented.

Results from the Macramé 1024 Node IEEE 1355 Switching Network
We report on the construction of a 1024 node switching network using IEEE1355 DS-Link technology. The nodes are interconnected by a switching fabric based on the STC104 packet switch. The system has been designed and constructed in a modular way in order to allow a variety of different network topologies to be investigated. Network throughput and latency have been studied for different topologi...
متن کاملSmall Hydro-Power Plants in Kenya: A Review of Status, Challenges and Future Prospects
Small Hydro-power Plants (SHP) are an important source of electricity in many countries. However, little is known about SHP in Kenya. This paper reviews the status, challenges in implementation of SHP and prospects for future development of SHP in Kenya. The paper shows that SHP has not yet fully utilized the available hydro-power potential. The challenges associated with SHP development should...
