Abstract

© 2019 Association for Computing Machinery. Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) can be deployed in Content Delivery Networks (CDN) Points of Presence (PoPs) to avoid the high CPU overheads caused by traditional TCP/IP stacks. However, RDMA cannot surmount the drawbacks of the window-based conservative of TCP and is insensitive to Quality of Experience (QoE). Moreover, the requirement of lossless networks hinders the widespread application of RDMA. In this paper, we introduce the parallel multipoint-to-multipoint Request-Grant-Transfer (RGT) mode into RDMA to solve the aforementioned problems. Compared with traditional RGT mode, our scheme supports parallel Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP..
