Assessing High-Speed Internet Access in the State of Iowa: Fourth Assessment, December 2004

The primary objective of the Fourth Assessment is to evaluate the level of progress in the deployment of high-speed Internet technologies in the State of Iowa.

Assessing High-Speed Internet Access in the State of Iowa: Fifth Assessment, May 2006

The primary objective of the Fifth Assessment is to evaluate the level of progress in the deployment of high-speed Internet technologies in the State of Iowa.

Assessing High-Speed Internet Access in the State of Iowa: Sixth Assessment, January 2008

This Assessment gauges the availability of highspeed Internet access to both rural and non-rural Iowans. The Board continues to evaluate the progress in the deployment of high-speed Internet access through this Sixth Assessment, including information related to Internet speeds available to consumers and pricing of high-speed Internet services. Comparison of this Assessment with the earlier efforts is critical if a clear perspective on the developing availability of high-speed Internet access to all residents of the State of Iowa is desired.

High-speed UDP Data Transmission with Multithreading and Automatic Resource Allocation

In this paper a utilization of the high data-rates channels by threading of sending and receiving is studied. As a communication technology evolves the higher speeds are used more and more in various applications. But generating traffic with Gbps data-rates also brings some complications. Especially if UDP protocol is used and it is necessary to avoid packet fragmentation, for example for high-speed reliable transport protocols based on UDP. For such situation the Ethernet network packet size has to correspond to standard 1500 bytes MTU[1], which is widely used in the Internet. System may not has enough capacity to send messages with necessary rate in a single-threaded mode. A possible solution is to use more threads. It can be efficient on widespread multicore systems. Also the fact that in real network non-constant data flow can be expected brings another object of study –- an automatic adaptation to the traffic which is changing during runtime. Cases investigated in this paper include adjusting number of threads to a given speed and keeping speed on a given rate when CPU gets heavily loaded by other processes while sending data.
