whitepaper Evolution of the Spanning Tree Protocol2007-01-01 Force10 Networks
  The Spanning Tree Protocol, that is the basis for the IEEE standard 802.1D was designed to provide "plug-and-play" operation for large Layer 2 networks based on half duplex shared Ethernet, which was the prevalent LAN technology throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s. As Ethernet evolved to become a switched full duplex technology, it soon became evident that 802.1D needed to be upgraded in order to keep pace with the new design models and switch features (e.g., VLANs) that emerged to allow optimization of switched networks.

whitepaper Cisco IPv6 Solutions2007-01-01 Cisco Systems
  The continuous growth of the global Internet requires that its overall architecture evolve to accommodate the new technologies that support the growing numbers of users, applications, appliances, and services. Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is designed to meet these requirements and enable a global environment where the addressing rules of the network are again transparent to the applications. This paper describes the Cisco position and details current and future IPv6 support across Cisco strategic product families.

whitepaper COCOON: An Alternative Approach to End-Point Congestion Management0000-00-00 Alcatel-Lucent
  This paper proposes an alternate endpoint congestion management scheme, called COordinated COngestion cONtrol (COCOON). The basic idea is to identify and group connections that may traverse the same backbone link, to enable them to share congestion information, and to coordinate among them all the congestion avoidance/control activities. The size of a COCOON group can be dynamically adjusted so as to magnify the benefits of end-host congestion management. COCOON also allows a new connection to commerce with a congestion window that is large enough to catch up with other connections while not inducing congestion. Finally, COCOON takes into account non-responsive UDP connections and "Bundles" them into a virtual connection that is subject to TCP-like congestion control.

whitepaper Stateless Data Flow Approach With Void Avoidance for Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks2006-12-12 Istanbul Technical University
  This paper proposes a void avoidance algorithm for the Stateless Weight Routing (SWR) algorithm which is recently developed stateless geographical routing protocol for wireless sensor and ad hoc networks. In order to demonstrate the efficiency of the method they started with the illustration of transmission coverage of relay nodes during the course of routing in the SWR protocol. The threshold value to retransmit a packet defined in the SWR may be used for several purposes including elimination of the void problem. It can be shown that the threshold value provides a tool to balance the tradeoff between energy consumption and reliability. A number of scenario has been considered to test the performance of the void avoidance (recovery!) algorithm.

whitepaper Timed Spi-Calculus With Types for Secrecy and Authenticity0000-00-00 Alcatel-Lucent
  This paper presents a discretely timed spi-calculus. A primitive for key compromise allows to model key compromise attacks, thus going beyond the standard Dolev-Yao attacker model. A primitive for reading a global clock allows the authors to express protocols based on timestamps, which are common in practice. The authors accompany the timed spi-calculus with a type system, prove that well-typed protocols are robustly safe for secrecy and authenticity and present examples of well-typed protocols as well as an example where failure to typecheck reveals a (well-known) flaw.

whitepaper Connecting the JMS Transport Nodes for WebSphere Message Broker v6 to Popular JMS Providers2006-10-06 IBM
  Although the JMS infrastructures used in this paper is set-up from scratch it is easy to see how WebSphere Message Broker can be connected to an existing JMS implementation. Little work is needed to make the connection and it opens up a wide variety of new message processing capabilities. Although the message processing performed in the message flows was simple in nature this was just for the purposes of illustration, to show how to get a message into and out of WebSphere Message Broker. Once the message has been read in, the many transformation, routing and enrichment facilities become available for little additional work. One can also use the WebSphere Message Broker JMS nodes in a variety of ways.

whitepaper Oracle Application Server 10g: Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) - Overview of Oracle HTTP Server2006-10-01 Oracle
  Oracle Application Server 10g is a fully featured application server consisting of a very large number of sub-products. Nearly all of these sub-products depend on the HTTP server since HTTP is the dominant protocol in which Application Servers communicate to outside entities. The Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) provides key infrastructure for serving the Internet's HTTP protocol. OHS is used to return responses for both Process-to-Process and human generated requests from browsers. Key aspects of OHS are its technology, its serving of both static and dynamic content and its integration with both Oracle and non-Oracle products.
