  • TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) is a technology that processes TCP/IP on a network adapter instead of a host CPU to reduce protocol processing overhead from the host CPU. There have been some approaches to implementing TOE: software TOE based on an embedded processor; hardware TOE based on ASIC implementation; and hybrid TOE in which software and hardware functions are combined. In this paper, we designed software modules and hardware modules for a hybrid TOE on an FPGA that had two processor cores. Software modules are based on the embedded Linux. Hardware modules are for data transmission (TX) and reception (RX). One core controls the TX path and the other controls the RX path of the Linux. This TX/RX path separation mechanism can reduce task switching overheads between processes and overcome poor performance of single embedded processor. Hardware modules deal with creating headers for outgoing packets, processing headers of incoming packets, and fetching or storing data from or to the host memory by DMA. These can make it possible to improve the performance of data transmission and reception. We proved performance of the TOE with separated transmission and reception paths by performing experiments with a TOE network adapter that was equipped with the FPGA having processor cores.

  • The large scale of data and operating systems in the trading environment in the cloud. However, technology is not an easy trading system of cloud-based data interoperability. Partially meets the data transfer rate and also the timeliness of the best trading system on the difficulties. Thus various techniques have been introduced for improving the throughput and low latency minimization problem. But the reality is, and the limits of speed improvements like Socket Direct Protocol, Offload Engine with TCP/IP is the hardware, the introduction effect is also low. In this paper, the proposed trading of the cloud XMDR-DAI based stock system. The proposed Safe Proper Time Method for optimal transmission speed and reliability.

  • TCP/IP is the most commonly used protocol to communicate among servers, and is used in a wide range of applications. Unfortunately, Data transmission through TCP/IP places a very heavy burden on host CPUs. And it hardly makes another job to be processed. So, TOE(TCP/IP Offload Engine) is considered in many servers. But, most of TOE modules tends to not support binary compatibility for standard socket interfaces. So, it has problems that existing applications should be modified and recompiled to get advantage of TOE device. In this paper, to resolve upper problems, we suppose design and implementation of TOE module supporting binary compatibility for standard socket interfaces. Also, it can make a usage of multiple TOEs and NICs simultaneously.

  • TCP-related Flooding attacks still dominate Distributed Denial of Service Attack. It is a great challenge to accurately detect the TCP flood attack in hish speed network. In this paper, we propose the NIC_Cookie logic implementation, which is a kind of security offload engine against TCP-related DDoS attacks, on network interface card. NIC_Cookie has robustness against DDoS attack itself and it is independent on server OS and external network configuration. It supports not IP-based response method but packet-level response, therefore it can handle attacks of NAT-based user group. We evaluate that the latency time of NIC_Cookie logics is $7{\times}10^{-6}$ seconds and we show 2Gbps wire-speed performance through a benchmark test.

  • To minimize low latency and improve the processing speed of the stock trading system, various technologies have been introduced. However, expensive network equipment has limitation for improving speed of trading system. Also, it is true that there is not much advantage by introducing those kind of systems. In this paper, we propose a low-Latency SPT(Safe Proper Time) scheme for overcoming the stock trading system in a cloud. The proposed method minimizes the CPI in order to reduce the CPU overhead that is based on the understanding of the kernel. and this approach satisfies the data timeliness.
