ab: Summary: Transferring active networking technology from the research arena
    to everyday deployment on desktop and edge router nodes, requires a
    NodeOS design that simultaneously meets three goals: (1) be embedded
    within a wide-spread, open source operating system; (2) allow
    non-active applications and regular operating system operation to
    proceed in a regular manner, unhindered by the active networking
    component; (3) offer performance competitive with that of networking
    stacks of general purpose operating systems. Previous NodeOS systems,
    Bowman, Janos, AMP and Scout, only partially addressed these goals. Our
    contribution lies in the design and implementation of such a system, a
    NodeOS within the Linux kernel, and the demonstration of competitive
    performance for medium and larger packet sizes. We also illustrate how
    such a design easily renders to the deployment of other networking
    architectures, such as peer-to-peer networks and extensible routers.
