Network protocol construction is a complex and error prone task. The challenges originate both from the inherent complexity of developing correct program code and from the distributed nature of networked systems. Protocol errors can have devastating consequences. Even so, methods for ensuring
Title: DISTRIBUTION OF PATH DURATION IN WIRELESS AD-HOC NETWORKS AND PATH SELECTION The performance of routing protocols in wireless ad-hoc networks is determined by a number of factors, among which the path durations are of much importance. Path durations affect the reliability
Communication satellites offer an efficient way to extend IP multicast services for groups in wide-area networks. This poses interesting challenges for routing and security. Satellite networks can have wired and wireless links and different link-layer technologies like Ethernet and ATM. For security,
BGP4 (Border Gateway Protocol) is the language that makes possible to keep up to date the road maps in the internet. This routing protocol is the one used by the big networks to exchange routing information. Thus, its performance is critical for
