Title
Parallel TCP/IP for Multiprocessor Workstations
Abstract
The need for networks capable of providing end-to-end gigabit services is by now well established. Examples range from distributed computing through collaborative shared work environments. In this paper, we present a parallel communication systems using multilevel parallelism to achieve high-speed data rates. We illustrate the implementation with the design of a parallel communication system using TCP/IP, Mbus and FDDIs for a multiprocessor Sun workstation. We use Petri nets to discover possible deadlocks and performance bottlenecks. As a result of this study, we conclude that the methodology can be effectively used to build systems to deliver network services in the order of hundreds of Mbps to a single user application using existing hardware, existing operating systems, existing network protocols at the cost of only additional software.
