The UCSD Computer Systems Laboratory (CSL) conducts research in operating systems and computer networks. Emphasis is given to high-performance systems, such as high-speed networks and workstation digital video. Contemporary topics being investigated include mechanisms for fast I/O (and IPC), new kernel structures supporting predictable performance, scheduling disciplines for real-time communication, group (multicast) communication mechanisms, and protocols for mobile wireless networks. The overlapping research groups within CSL study the integration of these various areas.
