RSS cpu cyclesComplete TCP/IP Offload for High-Speed Ethernet Networks
White Paper Processing of gigabit Ethernet (GbE) TCP/IP traffic can consume nearly all of host CPU cycles, leaving little resources for applications processing. By offloading TCP/IP processing to an embedded device, host CPU performance, system bandwidth, and... [03 Jul 2008]
Host Signal Processing: a Strategic Technology for Today's Computer Designers
White Paper Put simply, HSP is a software-based technology that employs a portion of the unused instruction cycles (MIPs) in a host computer's CPU chip's to perform signal processing and other functions that are normally handled by a separate Digital Signal... [03 Jul 2008]
Unleashing Server Performance Through Protocol Offload
White Paper As data centers attempt to scale up server performance, however, they often discover that a significant share - sometimes a majority - of server CPU cycles become devoted solely to transport protocol processing. [03 Jul 2008]
Telephony Audio Latency
White Paper The Windows operating system sometimes schedules tasks such that time-critical processes do not receive so many CPU cycles as they need—even on machines with a sufficiently powerful processor. The goal of the audio subsystem in Computer Telephony... [03 Jul 2008]
ICMCB Finds the Answer in IBM eServer pSeries and Linux
White Paper With certain computation cycles using more than 30 hours of CPU time on the existing hardware, Dominique Bernard and his team at the ICMCB looked for a more powerful solution that would enable them to deliver vital results in a shorter timeframe. [03 Jul 2008]
Designing Firewall/VPN With the PowerQUICC III MPC8572E
White Paper Its dual e500 cores provide CPU cycles and flexibility for performing various security operations. The MPC8572E is a PowerQUICC III processor optimized for network security processing at Gbps speed. The MPC8572E s integrated hardware blocks... [31 May 2008]
Parallel Processing Over Mobile Ad Hoc Networks of Handheld Machines
White Paper Research in parallel processing and distributed computing views CPU cycles as something that can be shared, organized and contributed to a grander whole. This grander whole becomes one large machine, whose CPU cycles are shared in a protocol over a... [22 Mar 2008]
IT at your service
Comment I remember paying for mainframe time based on logged-on hours on the terminal and on CPU cycles," says Rob Bamforth, principal analyst at Quocirca. Charging them access to CPU time spent crunching numbers for business intelligence might, too. [09 Jan 2008]
Virtualisation cuts carbon and servers
Comment The extra energy used for those wasted CPU cycles means that an enormous amount of carbon is burned into the atmosphere unnecessarily. It depends on what hardware you're consolidating," says Martin Niemer, senior product marketing manager for EMEA... [21 Dec 2007]
Server Network Scalability and TCP Offload
White Paper Their overhead prevents performance from scaling even with increased CPU, link or I/O bus bandwidths. Offloading processing to the adapter is beneficial not only because it allows more cycles to be applied but also of the changes it enables in the... [19 Dec 2007]
How closely are you monitoring?
Comment A software agent might help IT departments monitor the capacity of a RAID array, for example, or assess how many empty CPU cycles an underused server was burning through. It goes all the way down to the bread and butter about how a CPU is running. [10 Dec 2007]
Applying Speculative Technique to Improve TCP Throughput Over Lossy Links
The throughput degradation of Transport Control Protocol (TCP) over lossy links due to the coexistence of congestion losses and link corruption losses is very similar to the degradation of processor performance due to control hazards in CPU design. [06 Dec 2007]
Improving TCP Throughput Over Lossy Links Using Protocol-Level Speculations
This is very similar to processor performance degradation due to control hazards in CPU design. First, two types of loss events in networks with lossy links can be considered as two possibilities of a branching result (correct speculation vs... [06 Dec 2007]
