This year, 19 Technical presentations at the conference focus on the newest, networking designs and implementations of: - Interconnect Technology
- Packet Processing Engines
- Associative Technologies (TCAMs)
- Network Processors
- Deep Packet Inspection
- Optical Networks
- Clustering Technologies
- Network Caching
- Hardware Accelerators
The conference also includes three tutorials: T1 - High-Speed Networking: A Systematic Approach to High-Bandwidth, Low-Latency Communication: James Sterbenz of BBN T2 - Designing Next Generation Clusters, Cluster-based Servers and Datacenters with InfiniBand: Opportunities and Challenges: Dhabaleswar Panda (Ohio State) T3 - SLA/QoS in Partially Available and Intermittent Network Services: Petre Dini (Cisco) The conference also includes a panel discussion, led by Fabrizio Petrini of Los Alamos National Laboratory, on High-Performance Interconnection Networks for Cluster Computing. Panel members include: Greg Pfister of IBM Austin, Kevin Daierling of Mellanox, Moray McLaren of Quadrics, Wu-chun Feng of LANL, and Ron Brightwell of Sandia.
