....is a user level solution where a minimal (but sufficient) communication system is integrated into the application software and where a well defined programming abstraction is also provided. We adapt the transport protocols to the applications needs as opposed to the traditional layered model. In [36], one of the originators of ALF even proposes that all network elements should adapt to application requirements, for example protocols running in intermediate routers. This concept of active networks could be seen as an extension of ALF towards hop by hop tailoring. 3 An ALF architecture The ....

....mobility in network management. Nevertheless, the opportunities offered by code mobility within the networking domain are becoming recognized by an increasing number of researchers and organizations, and the first efforts to embed code mobility at the network device level are beginning to appear [15]. In parallel, network device manufacturers are placing more and more computational power devoted to network management into their devices, thus enabling mobile code support to take advantage of existing hardware. For instance, the switches of some manufacturers are already equipped with a ....

....the substrate is orthogonal to this work. However, these eoeorts will result in techniques for safely extending a software subsystem. These techniques can adapted to ensure safe eager handler instantiation in the the substrate actuator. Activating the Network Layer: The Active Networks [22] architecture introduces capsules, application data packets containing application speci c code which is interpreted at intervening routers. Two ongoing eoeorts focus on realizing such active network layer architectures. Netscript focuses on a network model and a data AEow language for actively ....
