Hello, I am involved in a high-speed networking project. I have implemented a simplified version of NETBLT (RFC 998), and I have been using it for the past year. Now I am interested in finding out if anyone else out there has worked on it. I am also looking to contact the authors: David D. Clark, Mark L. Lambert, and Lixia Zhang. There were at MIT in 1987. With our custom networking hardware, two Sun-3s can converse at 2.5 Mbyte/sec with 1K packets. The primary bottleneck here is the VMEbus. We are looking to extend this protocol to our new hardware that sits directly on a 80 Mbyte/sec network. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks -- Richard W. Webb ESL Inc.
