Networking has several definitions, including making key connections and moving information from one point to another. And a paper co-authored by engineers at ESnet and the University of Virginia proves the value of both — it was named a Best Paper at the Sixth International Conference on Communication Theory, Reliability, and Quality of Service, held April 21-26 in Venice, Italy.
The paper, “On How to Provision Quality of Service (QoS) for Large Dataset Transfers,” was written by Zhenzhen Yan, a Ph.D. student at the University of Virginia (UVA), UVA Professor Malathi Veeraraghavan, and Chris Tracy and Chin Guok of ESnet.
