LIMITING SIMULTANEOUS DATA TRANSFERS AND EFFICIENT THROTTLE MANAGEMENT
Granted: April 15, 2010
Application Number:
20100094999
A network storage server implements a method to limit simultaneous data transfers and efficient throttle management. The number of processes that can be simultaneously performed in the network storage server is limited.
