  abstract = {Parallel servers realize scalability and availability by
  effectively using multiple hardware resources (i.e., nodes and disks).
  Scalability is improved by distributing processes and data onto multiple
  resources; and availability is maintained by substituting a failed resource
  with a spare one. {\em Dynamic Gateways\/} extends these features to
  networking, by balancing the traffic among multiple connections to the
  network in order to improve scalability, and detours traffic around failed
  resources to maintain availability. This is made transparent to the clients
  and to applications in the server by using proxy and gratuitous ARP to
  control the network traffic. A performance evaluation shows that Dynamic
  Gateways improves the scalability (allowing the maximum networking
  performance to increase with increasing number of connections) and the
  performance (improving throughput and reducing access latency).},
