The BSD Packet Filter: A New Architecture for User-level Packet Capture

by Steven Mccanne, Van Jacobson , 1992
"... Many versions of Unix provide facilities for user-level packet capture, making possible the use of general purpose workstations for network monitoring. Because network monitors run as user-level processes, packets must be copied across the kernel/user-space protection boundary. This copying can be m ..."

A Survey on Sensor Networks

by Lan F. Akyildiz, Welljan Su, Yogesh Sankarasubramaniam, Erdal Cayirci , 2002
"... Recent advancement in wireless communica- tions and electronics has enabled the develop- ment of low-cost sensor networks. The sensor networks can be used for various application areas (e.g., health, military, home). For different application areas, there are different technical issues that research ..."

Statistical mechanics of complex networks

by Réka Albert, Albert-lászló Barabási - Rev. Mod. Phys
"... Complex networks describe a wide range of systems in nature and society, much quoted examples including the cell, a network of chemicals linked by chemical reactions, or the Internet, a network of routers and computers connected by physical links. While traditionally these systems were modeled as ra ..."

A Transmission Control Scheme for Media Access in Sensor Networks

by Alec Woo, David E. Culler , 2001
"... We study the problem of media access control in the novel regime of sensor networks, where unique application behavior and tight constraints in computation power, storage, energy resources, and radio technology have shaped this design space to be very different from that found in traditional mobile ..."

A Survey of active network Research

by David L. Tennenhouse, Jonathan M. Smith - IEEE Communications , 1997
"... Active networks are a novel approach to network architecture in which the switches of the network perform customized computations on the messages flowing through them. This approach is motivated by both lead user applications, which perform user-driven computation at nodes within the network today, ..."

Overcast: Reliable Multicasting with an Overlay Network

by John Jannotti, David K. Gifford, Kirk L. Johnson, M. Frans Kaashoek, James W. O'Toole, Jr. , 2000
"... Overcast is an application-level multicasting system that can be incrementally deployed using today's Internet infrastructure. These properties stem from Overcast's implementation as an overlay network. An overlay network consists of a collection of nodes placed at strategic locations in a ..."

Cognitive networks

by Ryan W. Thomas, Luiz A. Dasilva, Allen B. Mackenzie - in Proc. of IEEE DySPAN 2005 , 2005
"... Abstract — This paper presents a definition and framework for a novel type of adaptive data network: the cognitive network. In a cognitive network, the collection of elements that make up the network observes network conditions and then, using prior knowledge gained from previous interactions with t ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1090 (7 self) - Add to MetaCart
is needed to translate the user’s end-to-end goals into a form understandable by the cognitive process. The cognitive network also depends on a Software Adaptable Network that has both an external interface accessible to the cognitive network and network status sensors. These devices are used to provide

Towards an Active Network Architecture

by David L. Tennenhouse, David J. Wetherall - Computer Communication Review , 1996
"... Active networks allow their users to inject customized programs into the nodes of the network. An extreme case, in which we are most interested, replaces packets with "capsules" -- program fragments that are executed at each network router/switch they traverse. Active architectures permit ..."
