Exploiting Idle Resources in a High-Radix Switch for Supplemental Storage

Blumrich, Jiang, Dennison

A general-purpose switch for a high-performance network is usually designed with symmetric ports providing credit-based flow control and error recovery via link-level retransmission. Because port buffers must be sized for the longest links and modern asymmetric network topologies have a wide range o...

Light-Weight Protocols for Wire-Speed Ordering

Eberle, Dennison

We describe light-weight protocols for selective packet ordering in out-of-order networks that carry memory traffic. The protocols are designed for heterogeneous high-performance systems, in particular, accelerated systems with endpoints that have few resources available for interfacing the network....

Fine-Grained, Multi-Domain Network Resource Abstraction as a Fundamental Primitive to Enable High-Performance, Collaborative Data Sciences

Xiang, Zhang, Wang, Liu, Guok...

Multi-domain network resource reservation systems are being deployed, driven by the demand and substantial benefits of providing predictable network resources. However, a major lack of existing systems is their coarse granularity, due to the participating networks’ concern of revealing sensitive inf...
