Loose Source Routing as a Mechanism for Traffic Policies
White Paper Internet packet delivery policies have been of concern since the earliest times of the Internet, as witnessed by the presence of the Type of Service (ToS) field in the IPv4 header. This paper describe how adding a form of Loose Source and Record... [11 Jul 2008]
Morpheus: Making Routing Programmable
White Paper This paper presents Morpheus, a modular, open routing platform that supports flexible control of routing policies of a network. With Morpheus, network operators can realize many useful policies that are infeasible today through composition of... [11 Jul 2008]
EMS Rapid Archive: Email archiving service providing rapid e-Discovery search and flexible retention policy management
White Paper EMS Rapid Archive securely stores email off-site based on specific email retention policies. EMS helps companies manage email retention and deletion based on corporate policies, helps save messages in compliance with regulatory requirements, and... [11 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing on Open Networks: A Mobile Agent Approach
White Paper There are various loads balancing policies came into picture. In order to disperse the load on a Web server, generally the server cluster is configured to distribute access requests, or mirror servers are distributed geographically on different... [11 Jul 2008]
Source Selectable Path Diversity Via Routing Deflections
White Paper Unlike explicit source routing, this scheme is inherently scalable and compatible with ISP policies because it derives from the deployed Internet routing. This paper presents the design of a routing system in which end-systems set tags to select... [11 Jul 2008]
Businesses ignoring social networking potential?
News However, work in this area is still immature and in the meantime companies should be aware of what is happening in the world of consumer social networking and implement appropriate usage policies for employees' use of services such as Facebook and... [10 Jul 2008]
Automatic Generation of IPSec/VPN Security Policies in an Intra-Domain Environment
White Paper IPSec policies are widely deployed in firewalls or security gateways to protect information property. The security treatment (e.g.deny, allow or encrypt etc.of all inbound or outbound traffic will be determined by the security policies, and thus it... [10 Jul 2008]
Analytic Modeling of Load Balancing Policies for Tasks With Heavy-Tailed Distributions
White Paper This paper presents an analytic methodology for the exact analysis of load balancing policies in distributed multi-server system conditioned on the fact that the duration of arriving tasks is best described by a heavy tail distribution. [10 Jul 2008]
A Performance Comparison of Dynamic Vs. Static Load Balancing Policies in a Mainframe - Personal Computer Network Model
White Paper Load balancing policies may be either static or dynamic. Static load balancing policies are generally based on the information about the average behavior of sys-tem; transfer decisions are independent of the actual current system state. [10 Jul 2008]
IPSec/VPN Security Policy Correctness and Assurance
White Paper With IPSec/VPN policies being widely deployed, how to correctly specify and configure them is critical in enforcing security requirements. Under current practice, IPSec/VPN policies are usually specified manually by system administrators and thus... [10 Jul 2008]
An Extenics-Based Load Balancing Mechanism in Distributed Computing Systems
White Paper This paper presents a sender-initiated dynamic load balancing policies in a distributed computing system. There are four policies consisted in the proposed Extenics-based Load Balancing Mechanism (ELBM). [10 Jul 2008]
Optimal Load Balancing in a Beowulf Cluster
White Paper PANTS provides the option of using one of several different load balancing policies, each having a different approach. This paper studies the scalability and performance of these policies on large clusters and under various workloads. [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing Across Near-Homogeneous Multi-Resource Servers
White Paper Unfortunately, classical load distribution policies fail on two aspects when applied to a multi-resource server grid. Second, classical job selection policies do not actively correct such a resource imbalanced state. [10 Jul 2008]
Certain Performance Aspects of Optimal Load Balancing in Distributed Computer Systems
White Paper Load balancing policies may be either static or dynamic. Static load balancing policies use only statistical information on the system (e.g.the average behavior of the system) in making load balancing decisions. [10 Jul 2008]
Dynamic Load Balancing in Distributed Systems in the Presence of Delays: A Regeneration-Theory Approach
White Paper The performance of the proposed dynamic load-balancing policy is compared to that of static policies as well as existing dynamic load-balancing policies by considering the latency and the system processing rate. [10 Jul 2008]
