	SCHEDULE: NOV 11-17, 2006 Accelerating Web Protocols Using RDMA Session: Poster Reception Event Type: Poster Time: 5:15pm - 7:15pm Author(s): Dennis Dalessandro, Pete Wyckoff Location: Ballroom Corridor Abstract: As high performance computing finds increased usage in the Internet, we should expect to see larger data transfers and an increase in the processing of dynamic web content by HPC web servers, particularly where grid applications are concerned. The high cost of processing TCP/IP on the CPU will be too much for today's web servers to handle. As an answer to this problem, we look to iWARP, which is RDMA over TCP. The benefits of RDMA have long been realized in technologies such as InfiniBand, and iWARP makes this possible over ordinary Ethernet. In implementing an iWARP module for the Apache web server, we create an experimental platform for testing the feasibility of RDMA in the web.
