Abstract

This paper discusses experience in designing software to interconnect large numbers of processors that are based on the UNIX™ operating system over a high-speed local area network. The paper discusses portability of the implementation between different processors and operating systems based on the UNIX system, the influence of different schedulers, input/output subsystems, and different speed processors on the implementation and performance of the network. Also discussed are characteristics of network usage, such as traffic patterns, throughput, and response.
