Study and Implementation of a Heavy Server Architecture

The soft architecture of network servers have very important effects on their performance. In this paper, the architectures of several prevalent servers and their future are introduced. Then a new soft architecture for a high performance server was proposed, which we call the symmetric multi-processes event-driven (SMPED) architecture. In SMPED, a novel scheduling algorithm was introduced, which makes use of real throughput of each service process to distribute connection and resource. Finally, we evaluate the performance of a Web server based on SMPED. The simulated results show that SMPED is better than several servers on performance
