ECN has been widely employed in production datacenters to deliver high throughput low
latency communications. Despite being successful, prior ECN-based transports have an …

Datacenter networks provide the communication substrate for large parallel computer
systems that form the ecosystem for high performance computing (HPC) systems and …

As datacenter network bandwidth keeps growing, proactive transport becomes attractive,
where bandwidth is proactively allocated as" credits" to senders who then can send" …

To be agile and cost effective, data centers must allow dynamic resource allocation across
large server pools. In particular, the data center network should provide a simple flat …

Datacenter workloads demand high computational capabilities, flexibility, power efficiency,
and low cost. It is challenging to improve all of these factors simultaneously. To advance …

In this paper we present pFabric, a minimalistic datacenter transport design that provides
near theoretically optimal flow completion times even at the 99th percentile for short flows …

Full-bandwidth connectivity between all servers of a data center may be necessary for all-to-
all traffic patterns, but such interconnects suffer from high cost, complexity, and energy …

We present our approach for overcoming the cost, operational complexity, and limited scale
endemic to datacenter networks a decade ago. Three themes unify the five generations of …

Most datacenter network (DCN) designs focus on maximizing bisection bandwidth rather
than minimizing server-to-server latency. We explore architectural approaches to building …

The ever-increasing bandwidth requirements of modern datacenters have led researchers to
propose networks based upon optical circuit switches, but these proposals face significant …
