Consuming Network Bandwidth with Visapult
WES BETHEL and JOHN SHALF, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
29.1 Introduction
During the period of the Next Generation Internet Combustion Corridor project (1999–2000), there was a conundrum: the network research community declared there were no applications that could take advantage of high-speed networks, yet applications developers were confounded by poorly performing networks that impeded high-performance use. Our goal during that period was to create an extremely high-performance visualization application that not only was capable of pushing the performance envelope on wide-area networks (WANs) but was generally useful from a scientific research perspective. We wanted an application ...
