Very High-Speed Report File System

Abstract

The Minnesota Supercomputer Center, Inc. (MSCI), under its Very High- Speed Remote File System (VHSRFS) contract with the Army Research Office, conducted research in: Technologies for integrating TCP/EP protocols with ATM networks; Technologies which will enable gigabit-per-second local area networks (LANs) and high-performance hosts to use gigabit-speed ATM wide-area networks; Methods by which high-performance, massively parallel processors (MPPs) can connect to high-speed wide-area networks; and Protocols and other technologies required to develop a shared, remote file system capable of transferring data to multiple remote supercomputers over gigabit wide-area networks. ne research results of the VHSRFS contract were intended to provide some of the foundation for research in the MAGIC Gigabit Testbed, which has been funded by DARPA.... Gigabit networks, Broadband Integrated Services Digital Networks(B-ISDN), Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM).
