Patent
Access authentication system
TL;DR: In this paper, an access authentication system is provided for authenticating access for visitors to a wireless local area network (WLAN), the operator of which administers a visitor authentication, authorisation and accounting (VAAA) server.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Invariants: a new design methodology for network architectures
TL;DR: This paper proposes a complementary methodology, motivated by the view that evolution and interworking flexibility are determined not so much by the principles applied during initial design, but by the choice of fundamental components or "design invariants" in terms of which the design is expressed.
Patent
Access authentication system for a wireless environment
TL;DR: In this article, an access authentication system is provided for authenticating access for visitors to a wireless local area network (WLAN), the operator of which administrators a visitor authentication, authorisation and accounting (VAAA) server.
Patent
LAN user protocol
Michael Gallagher,Robert Hancock +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an operating protocol for Local Area Network (LAN) systems capable of coping with the problems of user-mobility between LANs is presented, whereby a user subscribing to a LAN operated by a so-called Home Operator connects, as a "visitor", to one or more other LAN sites; basing such connection, for charging and other operational purposes, on that user's subscription with its Home Operator.
Robust Routing in Dynamic MANETs
TL;DR: This paper analytically characterize the source-destination connectivity of the braid, and compares the reliability of braided routing and various other MANET routing protocols, including Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing, and quantify the relative amounts of control overhead incurred by braided routed and AODV.
