Supra-gigabit/second (SGb/s) computer communication technologies
High network performance is essential to satisfying a wide class of High Performance Computing and Communication (HPCC) user needs. The requirements of these applications for high throughput and low interactive response time have focused this research on the scaling of technology far past the performance of the newest data telecommunication industry standards in order to facilitate the design of communication systems of interest to the HPCC community. These applications require Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) performance in the 10 to 100 Gigabit per second (Gb/s) range, far greater than the 0.05 Gb/s performance typical of today`s LANs or WANs. This research investigated various approaches to achieving 10 to 100 Gigabit per second performance, developed a communication architecture to achieve this performance, and tested the viability of selected techniques through simulation and prototyping.
