We present PAST, a novel network architecture for data center Ethernet networks that
implements a Per-Address Spanning Tree routing algorithm. PAST preserves Ethernet's self …

The recent line of research into topology design focuses on lowering network diameter.
Many low-diameter topologies such as Slim Fly or Jellyfish that substantially reduce cost …

We introduce FatPaths: a simple, generic, and robust routing architecture that enables state-
of-the-art low-diameter topologies such as Slim Fly to achieve unprecedented performance …

Today, link-state routing protocols that compute multiple shortest paths predominate in data
center and campus networks, where routing is performed either in layer three or in layer two …

We present the architecture and protocols of ROME, a layer-2 network designed to be
backwards compatible with Ethernet and scalable to tens of thousands of switches and …

In computer networking, broadcasting means to transmit a packet to every device in one
broadcast domain. Broadcasting is widely used in many protocols, like ARP [1], DHCP [2] …

We report on resent astrophysical N-body simulations performed on the GRAPE-4 (GRAvity
PipE 4) system, a special-purpose computer for astrophysical N-body simulations. We first …

Modern datacenters require a network with high cross-section bandwidth, fine-grained
security, support for virtualization, and simple management that can scale to hundreds of …

The network switch is one of the core components of computer communications, functioning
as the interconnect among ever increasing number of nodes and a variety of networks …
