A New Protocol For Faster Web Services?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Sunday February 2, 2003 @03:06AM from the pardon-my-skepticism dept.

Roland Piquepaille writes "Jonghun Park is an Assistant Professor of Information Sciences and Technology at Pennsylvania State University. He says that a new protocol can improve Web services. Sandeep Junnarkar broke the story. "Jonghun Park proposed a method for sharing information between systems linked on the Internet promises to speed collaborative applications by up to 10 times the current rates. The protocol is based on an algorithm that lets it use parallel instead of serial methods to process requests. Such a method boosts the efficiency of how resources are shared over the Internet. The new protocol is called Order-based Deadlock Prevention Protocol with Parallel Requests." Check this column for some excerpts or read the CNET News.com article for more details.

From the article:
Web services is currently held up--in my opinion--by things like security and reliability.

So what he's saying is that secure and reliable systems are slowing down the web??
Ever seen an ISS server, dude? Not secure and not reliable! Oh yeah... that's why Internet Explorer/ISS combos as so fast. So I guess he's right after all... sorry for the misunderstanding.
Does anyone else see this happening... by AtomicX · 2003-02-02 06:05 · Score: 0, Troll

Yay! - Even more bandwidth for advertisers to clog up with free drug adverts and cheap penis enlargers.
