RSS identifierLoad Balancing in Large-Scale RFID Systems
White Paper A Radio Frequency IDentifier (RFID) system consists of inexpensive, uniquely-identifiable tags that are mounted on physical objects, and readers that track these tags (and hence these physical objects) through RF communication. [10 Jul 2008]
Multicast VPN: Multicast Distribution Trees Subaddress Family Identifier Information
White Paper This paper covers interoperability and deployment aspects of the creation of Multicast VPN (MVPN) Multicast Distribution Trees (MDTs) over the shared core with regards to the introduction of MDT Subaddress Family Identifier Information (SAFI) in... [02 Jul 2008]
CLASH: A Protocol for Internet-Scale Utility-Oriented Distributed Computing
White Paper CLASH relies on a variable-length identifier key scheme, where the length of any individual key is a function of load. Distributed Hash Table (DHT) overlay networks offer an efficient and robust technique for wire-area data storage and queries. [29 Feb 2008]
Embedding Covert Channels Into TCP/IP
White Paper It is commonly believed that steganography within TCP/IP is easily achieved by embedding data in header fields seemingly filled with "Random" data, such as the IP identifier, TCP Initial Sequence Number (ISN) or the least significant bit of the... [19 Dec 2007]
Service Identification in TCP/IP: Well-Known Versus Random Port Numbers
White Paper The sixteen-bit well-known port number is often overlooked as a network identifier in Internet communications. Its purpose at the most fundamental level is only to demultiplex flows of traffic. Several unintended uses of the port number evolved... [06 Nov 2007]
Secure Communication in a Distributed System Using Identity Based Encryption
White Paper Using this identifier as a public key, other entities are able to securely access that resource. Distributed systems require the ability to communicate securely with other computers in the network. To accomplish this, most systems use key... [31 Aug 2007]
SAS: A Simple Anonymity Scheme for Clustered Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper The scheme, named Simple Anonymity Scheme (SAS), uses a range of pseudonyms as identifiers for a node in the network, to ensure concealment of its true Identifier (ID). This paper proposes a simple and efficient scheme for establishing anonymity in... [23 Aug 2007]
Privacy screw tightened at Microsoft, Yahoo!
News In addition, Microsoft is promising it will give people the ability to opt out of behavioural ad targeting it offers on third-party websites and it will allow people to search and surf its sites without being associated with a personal and unique... [23 Jul 2007]
Search engines race to update privacy policies
In addition, Microsoft is promising that it will give people the ability to opt out of the behavioral ad targeting it offers on third-party websites, and it will allow people to search and surf its websites without being associated with a personal... [23 Jul 2007]
Building International Applications With Visual Studio .NET
White Paper The first character of an identifier can be an uppercase letter, lowercase letter, title case letter, modifier letter, other letter, or letter number. The subsequent characters of an identifier can be any of those, plus non-spacing marks, spacing... [20 Jun 2007]
Linkage of Patient Registries and Clinical Data Sets Without Patient Identifiers
White Paper This paper will outline a simple record-linkage between two mock datasets that do not contain a common primary-key identifier. There are often tradeoffs when designing data collection tools - a process that is driven primarily by scarce resources. [03 May 2007]
Wireless Handheld Devices Help Security Forces Detect Threats of Radiation
White Paper He developed a radio isotope identifier, small enough to attach to a Palm handheld. The radio isotope identifier can detect radiation, its source, and the type of radiation being emitted. William Murray, a scientist at LANL, created an innovative... [16 Apr 2007]
Binding-And Port-Agnostic Service Composition Using a P2P SOA
White Paper Using a service identifier based on a DHT identifier, Service Proxy objects that encapsulate port information are downloaded over the structured P2P network from the host where the service is deployed. [08 Mar 2007]
Analyzing the Browse Patterns of Mobile Clients
White Paper The authors carry out user-behavior analysis as users authenticate themselves before accessing and then every access is logged with a unique user identifier. The authors study the dynamics of a large popular commercial Web site designed... [06 Mar 2007]
Sharing FCP Adapters Through Virtualization
White Paper To apply the power of server virtualization to this environment, the IBM System z9 implements a new FC standard called N_Port Identifier Virtualization (NPIV). The IBM System z9 and its predecessors pioneered server virtualization, including the... [06 Mar 2007]
