30 Mar 1995TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method and an apparatus for executing a distributed algorithm or server in a Simple Network Management Protocol Version 1 (SNMPv1) based computer network.
Abstract: The present invention is directed at both a method and an apparatus for executing a distributed algorithm or server in a Simple Network Management Protocol Version 1 (SNMPv1) based computer network. The invention involves configuring a peer arrangement of agent/manager nodes and encapsulating the algorithm or server into SNMPv1. In a peer configuration, each node acts as a manager node, the manager node sends a Get message to an agent node to read a certain location in an agent node's managed information base (MIB) and sends a Set message to an agent node to write to a certain location in an agent node's MIB. This peer configuration also provides that each node act as an agent node, the agent node sends a GetResponse message to a manager node in response to a Get message and sends a Trap message to a manager node in response to an event. Encapsulating of the algorithm or server within SNMPv1 involves mapping the proprietary protocol to the SNMPv1 messages and mapping the algorithm or server variables to certain locations in the MIB. When mapping the algorithm or server, algorithm command variables, placeholder variables, and data variables are assigned to certain locations within the MIB.

TL;DR: This work describes in detail the implementation of a loosely coupled integrated network which provides two kinds of roaming services, a SimpleIP service and a Mobile-IP service, and presents, in detail, two new components used to build these services.
Abstract: The combination of 3G and WLAN wireless technologies offers the possibility of achieving anywhere, anytime Internet access, bringing benefits to both end users and service providers. We discuss interworking architectures for providing integrated service capability across widely deployed 3G cdma2000-based and IEEE 802.11-based networks. Specifically, we present two design choices for integration: tightly coupled and loosely coupled, and recommend the latter as a preferred option. We describe in detail the implementation of a loosely coupled integrated network which provides two kinds of roaming services, a SimpleIP service and a Mobile-IP service. We present, in detail, two new components used to build these services: a network element called a WLAN integration gateway deployed in WLAN networks; a client software on the mobile device. For a mobile device with interfaces to both technologies, our system supports seamless handoff in the presence of overlapping radio coverage.

22 May 1998TL;DR: In this paper, a method for conflict resolution among remote hosts in a wireless network where remotes make bandwidth requests to the base station via uplink frames partitioned into one or more reservation minislots, a collision occurs where two or more remotes have transmitted a request in the same minislot.
Abstract: In a method for conflict resolution among remote hosts in a wireless network where remotes make bandwidth requests to the base station via uplink frames partitioned into one or more reservation minislots, a collision occurs where two or more remotes have transmitted a request in the same minislot. Each remote is characterized by a stack level, and only remotes with a stack level equal to 0 are permitted to transmit access request packets. Newly active remotes are allowed to join in with those remotes already having stack level 0 during any particular conflict resolution period by setting their stack levels to 0 and entering the request state. If the stack level of a remote is 0, the remote randomly picks a minislot for transmission of an access request. If the outcome is SUCCESS, and the queue at the remote is empty, the remote transmits the current packet after receiving a transmit permit and exits the request state. If the queue is not empty, then, after receiving a permit, the current packet is transmitted with a piggybacked reservation request for transmission of the next packet in the queue, continuing until the queue is empty. If the outcome of the reservation request was not SUCCESS, the remote participates in a random draw to determine whether to increment its stack level by 1 or leave it at 0. If the stack level of any remote is not 0, then in one embodiment if the outcome of the previous reservation request was COLLIDED, the remote increments its stack level by 1, otherwise decrementing it by 1. In an alternate embodiment, if the outcome of all the reservation requests during the previous cycle was COLLIDED for greater than or equal to some threshold, the remote increments its stack level by 1, otherwise decrementing it by 1. The number of reservation minislots available in any particular uplink frame may be dynamically changed based on the percentage of idle minislots and the total uplink queue length.

25 Mar 1997TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend the PNNI protocol to support hierarchical multicast routing and signaling for ATM networks, where the core nodes are maintained in each peer-group and at each level of the hierarchy.
Abstract: The present invention extends the PNNI protocols to support hierarchical multicast routing and signaling for ATM networks. The invention utilizes an extension to a core-based tree algorithm. Instead of a single core node, core nodes are maintained in each peer-group and at each level of the hierarchy. The advantage of this is that one single core node is not overloaded. Additionally, this increases fault-tolerance because there are no single points of failure. As would be understood, the present invention is highly scaleable because of the hierarchical nature of PNNI. In addition, the scheme supports multiple senders and dynamic membership changes to the multicast group. Quality of service requirements can be negotiated during connection setup and are guaranteed during the course of the connection. Though some additional topological information has to be flooded in the peer-groups to compute efficient multicast routes, the overheads to the connection management are minimal. The multicast tree is built incrementally and the cost of the tree is comparable to the cost of the Steiner Tree computed using some standard heuristics.

TL;DR: In this paper, the sublimation energy, lattice constants, and bulk modulus of a periodic model of the common phase of ice, Ih, vary dramatically when calculated with several commonly employed approximations to the electron exchange-correlation energy functional.
Abstract: The sublimation energy, lattice constants, and bulk modulus of a periodic model of the common phase of ice, Ih, vary dramatically when calculated with several commonly employed approximations to the electron exchange-correlation energy functional. Several gradient-corrected functionals give accurate descriptions of this hydrogen-bonded material.
