Implementação de um software discriminador de repasse de eventos para a arquitetura internet

Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência da Computação.Este trabalho apresenta um Software Discriminador deRepasse de Eventos (SDRE) construído em Java, aplicando as funcionalidades do modelo OSI em ambientes SNMP. É feita uma revisão bibliográfica das duas arquiteturas de gerência de redes, buscando adequar a norma OSI/ITU-T X-734 à Internet e são apresentadas motivações que demonstram esforços atuais nesta área. Esta aplicação é simples e funcional, enfatizando a técnica de relatório de eventos, filtrando os mesmos e podendo selecionar várias estações de gerenciamento destinatárias, como forma de descentralizar e melhorar o desempenho da arquitetura de gerência de redes Internet. Por fim são apresentados os resultados dos testes efetuados, a avaliação e a validação do software, bem como o ambiente simulado e de produção onde foi implantado o discriminador

Netzwerk-Management und Hochgeschwindigkeits- Kommunikation. Teil XIII

Der Interne Bericht enthaelt die Beitraege zum Seminar "Netzwerk-Management und Hochgeschwindigkeits-Kommunikation", das im Wintersemester 1995/96 zum 13. Mal stattgefunden hat. Die Themenauswahl kann grob in folgende fuenf Bloecke gegliedert werden: 1 - Der erste Block befasst sich mit der Problematik, unterschiedliche Dienste und damit auch verschiedene Anforderungen an die zu erbringende Dienstqualitaet in ein Kommunikationssubsystem zu integrieren. 2 - Im zweiten Block wird das Management von FDDI-Netzen naeher untersucht, wobei besonderes Augenmerk auf der Unterstuetzung von isochronem Datenverkehr liegt. 3 - Der dritte Block befasst sich mit aktuellen Problemen aus dem Bereich der Mobilkommunikation, insbesondere der Wegewahl in Mobil-Netzen. 4 - Im Zentrum des vierten Blocks steht das Internet und dessen Migration hin zu ATM. Dabei spielen vor allem Gruppenkommunikation und Dienstelokalisierung eine grosse Rolle. 5 - Der letzte Block schliesslich stellt die Verwaltung von ATM-Netzen in den Mittelpunkt, indem verschiedene Normungsvorschlaege zu diesem Thema ausgefuehrt werden

Standards as interdependent artifacts : the case of the Internet

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Engineering Systems Division, 2008.Includes bibliographical references.This thesis has explored a new idea: viewing standards as interdependent artifacts and studying them with network analysis tools. Using the set of Internet standards as an example, the research of this thesis includes the citation network, the author affiliation network, and the co-author network of the Internet standards over the period of 1989 to 2004. The major network analysis tools used include cohesive subgroup decomposition (the algorithm by Newman and Girvan is used), regular equivalence class decomposition (the REGE algorithm and the method developed in this thesis is used), nodal prestige and acquaintance (both calculated from Kleinberg's technique), and some social network analysis tools. Qualitative analyses of the historical and technical context of the standards as well as statistical analyses of various kinds are also used in this research. A major finding of this thesis is that for the understanding of the Internet, it is beneficial to consider its standards as interdependent artifacts. Because the basic mission of the Internet (i.e. to be an interoperable system that enables various services and applications) is enabled, not by one or a few, but by a great number of standards developed upon each other, to study the standards only as stand-alone specifications cannot really produce meaningful understandings about a workable system. Therefore, the general approaches and methodologies introduced in this thesis which we label a systems approach is a necessary addition to the existing approaches. A key finding of this thesis is that the citation network of the Internet standards can be decomposed into functionally coherent subgroups by using the Newman-Girvan algorithm.(cont.) This result shows that the (normative) citations among the standards can meaningfully be used to help us better manage and monitor the standards system. The results in this thesis indicate that organizing the developing efforts of the Internet standards into (now) 121 Working Groups was done in a manner reasonably consistent with achieving a modular (and thus more evolvable) standards system. A second decomposition of the standards network was achieved by employing the REGE algorithm together with a new method developed in this thesis (see the Appendix) for identifying regular equivalence classes. Five meaningful subgroups of the Internet standards were identified, and each of them occupies a specific position and plays a specific role in the network. The five positions are reflected in the names we have assigned to them: the Foundations, the Established, the Transients, the Newcomers, and the Stand-alones. The life cycle among these positions was uncovered and is one of the insights that the systems approach on this standard system gives relative to the evolution of the overall standards system. Another insight concerning evolution of the standard system is the development of a predictive model for promotion of standards to a new status (i.e. Proposed, Draft and Internet Standards as the three ascending statuses). This model also has practical potential to managers of standards setting organizations and to firms (and individuals) interested in efficiently participating in standards setting processes. The model prediction is based on assessing the implicit social influence of the standards (based upon the social network metric, betweenness centrality, of the standards' authors) and the apparent importance of the standard to the network (based upon calculating the standard's prestige from the citation network).(cont.) A deeper understanding of the factors that go into this model was also developed through the analysis of the factors that can predict increased prestige over time for a standard. The overall systems approach and the tools developed and demonstrated in this thesis for the study of the Internet standards can be applied to other standards systems. Application (and extension) to the World Wide Web, electric power system, mobile communication, and others would we believe lead to important improvements in our practical and scholarly understanding of these systems.by Mo-Han Hsieh.Ph.D
