NetEffect Chief Architect to Present at WinHEC 2006; Brian Hausauer to Demonstrate How iWARP-Enabled Ethernet Improves System Performance.SEATTLE -- NetEffect, the leader in next generation Ethernet connectivity solutions, today announced that Chief Architect Brian Hausauer will present at Microsoft's WinHEC 2006 conference. The annual event gathers hardware engineers, designers and business decision makers focused on development strategies for the Windows platform. The presentation will take place Wednesday, May 24 and is titled "iWARP Ethernet: Key to Driving Ethernet into the Future." It will summarize the key issues regarding Ethernet deployment in high performance and low-latency environments. Hausauer will also illustrate how iWARP-enabled Ethernet improves system performance while utilizing Microsoft's Remote Direct Memory Access Application Program Interface (RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) A communications protocol that provides transmission of data from the memory of one computer to the memory of another without involving the CPU. InfiniBand, Virtual Interface (VI) and RDMA Over IP are all forms of RDMA. APIs.) During his presentation, Hausauer will provide a live demonstration that will show the audience the high performance enabled by NetEffect's 10Gb iWARP Ethernet solution. NetEffect has developed the industry's highest performance Ethernet adapters The Ethernet hardware required to attach to an Ethernet network. It typically resides on an expansion board, but is sometimes built into the motherboard. An Ethernet adapter is required in each client and server. See Ethernet and network adapter. and is the only company delivering adapters that fully implement the iWARP standard extensions to Ethernet. NetEffect is currently providing products for testing with selected customers. Hausauer has more than 15 years experience designing servers and server I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output subsystems at Compaq, Banderacom and NetEffect. At Compaq, Hausauer was responsible for multiprocessor Multiple processors. A multiprocessor machine uses two or more CPUs for routine processing. See multiprocessing. multiprocessor - parallel processing server architecture and chipset design. At Banderacom, he brought critical understanding of server architecture into Banderacom's InfiniBand design team. Hausauer is currently working on the next generation 10Gb Ethernet iWARP adapter. He holds 15 patents covering I/O interconnect technology and holds a BS in Electrical Engineering electrical engineering: see engineering. electrical engineering Branch of engineering concerned with the practical applications of electricity in all its forms, including those of electronics. from Iowa State University Academics ISU is best known for its degree programs in science, engineering, and agriculture. ISU is also home of the world's first electronic digital computing device, the Atanasoff–Berry Computer. . About NetEffect NetEffect is a privately held network connectivity solutions company providing next generation, multi-gigabit Ethernet products. These products fully implement iWARP standards, the new series of Ethernet extensions. iWARP enables Ethernet scalability to deliver high throughput for networking, fast access for storage, and low latency Low latency allows human-unnoticeable delays between an input being processed and the corresponding output providing real time characteristics. This can be especially important for internet connections utilizing services such as online gaming and VOIP - VOIP is not as important as for clustering. NetEffect solutions can concurrently support legacy Ethernet infrastructures and the new generation of storage and clustering applications, at 10Gbps speeds.
