High-speed IP communication system is the key technology to realize parallel computing cluster systems using high-speed networks such as Gigabit Ethernet. However. it is difficult to realize the 1 Gbps-over IP communication with the existing communication architecture. For this purpose. we ate proposing the Comet communication architecture to realize fast IP communications. In this paper, we describe the Comet-VIA which is the host-adapter interface of the Comet communication architecture. Then, we evaluated the performance of the Comet-VIA prototype implementation, and we estimated the performance of the Comet communication architecture using the Stream Processor based on the results. We confirmed that we can realize 1Gbps-over IP communication using the Comet communication architecture.
