  • A FORMAL APPROACH to PROTOCOL OFFLOAD for WEB SERVERS By
    A FORMAL APPROACH TO PROTOCOL OFFLOAD FOR WEB SERVERS By Juan Manuel Sol¶a-Sloan A thesis submitted in partial ful¯llment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in COMPUTING INFORMATION SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY OF PUERTO RICO MAYAGUEZÄ CAMPUS May, 2009 Approved by: Nayda G. Santiago-Santiago, Ph.D Date Member, Graduate Committee Manuel Rodr¶³guez-Mart¶³nez,Ph.D Date Member, Graduate Committee Domingo Rodr¶³guez-Rodr¶³guez,Ph.D Date Member, Graduate Committee Isidoro Couvertier-Reyes, Ph.D Date President, Graduate Committee Dorial Castellanos-Rodr¶³guez,Ph.D Date Representative of Graduate Studies Nestor Rodr¶³guez-Rivera, Ph.D Date Chairperson of the Department ABSTRACT The use of networks as computational tools has been fundamental in Com- puter Information Science and Engineering research. As computers have evolved, the demands for faster data transmission have incremented. Protocol processing and application processing compete for a share of CPU time when the underlying network evolves. O²oad Engines have been proposed as ways to alleviate the CPU of the host of the cost of processing the protocols used in an end-to-end communication. These engines are proposed as part of the network interface hardware or as a component near or even inside the CPU. However, an increase in performance is not guaranteed after the installation of this type of engine. The operating system of the host is capable of processing the protocols faster than the engine in some particular occasions. A probabilistic model that estimates the performance metrics of utilization and delay, before and after extracting the protocol processing from the CPU of the host is presented in this document.

The thesis is equivalent to 20 weeks of full time studies. Contact Information: Author: Vineesha Sana E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] External Advisor: Managing Director, Rao. Tummalapalli Seneca Global Hyderabad, India University advisor: Dr. Adrian Popescu Department of Communications Faculty of Computing Internet : www.bth.se Blekinge Institute of Technology Phone : +46 455 38 50 00 SE-371 79 Karlskrona, Sweden Fax : +46 455 38 50 57 ABSTRACT Internet applications make use of the services provided by a transport protocol, such as TCP (a reliable, in-order stream protocol). We use the term Transport Service to mean the end- toend service provided to application by the transport layer. That service can only be provided correctly if information about the intended usage is supplied from the application. The application may determine this information at the design time, compile time, or run time, and it may include guidance on whether a feature is required, a preference by the application, or something in between. Multipath TCP (MPTCP) adds the capability of using multiple paths to a regular TCP session.
