Abstract
Asynchronous Transfer Mode is becoming a widespread technology for
both local and wide area networks. We describe our ATM-connected
computing and storage resources at Adelaide and Canberra. We report
on measurements of the performance of our system and discuss the
implications for wide area distributed, high-performance computing
(DHPC) applications. In particular we discuss effect of bandwidth and
latency limitations for distributed applications that make use of data
and computational resources that are spread over large geographical
areas.
