END-TO-END PERFORMANCE PREDICTION FOR THE INTERNET (Work in progress)
Richard A. Golding
June 1992, 29 pages (paper copy $6.00)
Abstract:
Many applications designed for wide-area systems use replication to
provide a service at multiple locations. From which site should a
client choose to obtain service? A client can specify its needs in
terms of communication latency, bandwidth, or error rate. This
specification must be matched against the expected performance
available from each site. I present the results of two experiments
that measured end-to-end performance, and discuss how the results can
be used for prediction.
