Award for: Biggest Fastest in the West
   
|
Scientists from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech),
the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN),
the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) and the
Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) were honored to receive the CENIC "On the
Road to Ten Gigabit: Biggest Fastest in the West" award.
The team transmitted over a TByte of data in just under an hour from Sunnyvale near SLAC in California to CERN in Geneva with a single TCP stream between 2 PCs with 10GE NICs, using jumbo frames and the standard (New-Reno) TCP. This corresponds to a sustained
TCP rate of 2.38 Gbps across 10,037 kilometers for more than one hour. |
