The goal of this work is to characterize scientific data transfers and to determine the suitability of dynamic virtual circuit service for these transfers instead of the currently used IP-routed service. Specifically, logs collected by servers executing a commonly used scientific data transfer application, GridFTP, are obtained from three US super-computing/scientific research centers, NERSC, SLAC,...
A chip-scale hollow-core waveguide using high-contrast grating yields slow light with a group velocity <0.02c and loss as low as 0.2dB/cm over 50GHz bandwidth. Loss and group velocity are independently optimized for the first time.
TCP is an important communication protocol as more and more multimedia technologies are deployed in the Internet nowadays. However, existing TCP control mechanism has some shortcomings in supporting real-time streaming traffic. Although UDP can be used as an alternative to transmit real-time application data, it lacks congestion control. Introducing a new TCP-friendly protocol that supports the multimedia...
