Proxy Based Parallel Data Transfer Mechanism in Grid Environment

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel parallel data transfer mechanism to improve the performance of data transfer in grid environment. It utilizes the servers distributed in grid system and selects some of them as the proxy servers. It introduces the method of how to select the proxy server. Then data are divided into several parts and sent through the selected proxy servers with different physical links. By that, it can effectively improve the performance of data transfer.
