Abstract
This article presents an ultra-high-throughput network service called ''Netwarp,'' which provides AN instantaneous file transfer service vie wed by ''timewidth'' instead of ''bandwidth.'' Four breakthrough techn ologies for realizing Netwarp - the PC-ONU, network DMA, gigabit share d access, and the Netwarp Router - are described. Sustained throughput s above 110 MB/s are achieved with a prototype system developed in our laboratories.
