Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for identifying a list of destination servers ordered by round-trip time (RTT) for a requesting machine. When a client interacts with an address, such as an IP address, when accessing a remote service, an RTT is collected for the address, or the RTT may be derived for a range of addresses, and saved in a database. When the client subsequently requests access to a remote service, a list of destination servers are returned, respectively identified by corresponding addresses. The destination servers can be sorted in order of efficiency by determining an expected RTT associated with a matching address, or range, in the database, and sorting the destination servers by their respective expected RTTs.

Abstract: Systems and methods that facilitate remote wake up are described that provide for efficient and transparent wake up of target hosts by remote hosts. In various embodiments, a separate address can be used by a target host for wake up network traffic, which is different from a regular address associated with a target host for normal network communications. In addition, the disclosed subject matter facilitates controlling wake up operations according to trust, identity, and/or a wake up policy.

Abstract: Systems and methods that facilitate inter-process networking are described that can provide inter-process communication, firewall restrictions, process and host mobility, as well as parallelization of task performance. In various embodiments, a computer process can be provided with its own internet protocol address and network stack to facilitate inter-process networking. In further embodiments, a gateway process can facilitate process mobility, host mobility, and parallelization of task performance, as well as management of a host area network by facilitating inter-process communication between suitably configured processes.
