Abstract
In computer communication networks, routing is often accomplished by maintaining copies of the network topology and dynamic performance characteristics in various network nodes The present paper describes an algorithm that allows complete flexibility in the placement of the topology information In particular, we assume that an arbitrary subset of network nodes are capable of maintaining the topology In this environment, protocols are defined to allow automatic updates to flow between these more capable nodes In addition, protocols are defined to allow less capable nodes to report their topology data to the major nodes, and acquire route information from them

Systems and methods for multimedia remoting over terminal server connections

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe techniques relating to managing multimedia transmissions in terminal services scenarios, where a user interface component is sent from a server to a remote client and the presentation is tracked but not displayed by the server.

Resolving a distributed topology to stream data

TL;DR: In this paper, a distributed media session is described, which when executed, resolves a distributed topology from a request to stream data from a source device to a client device over a network.

Media processing methods, systems and application program interfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a media engine component that provides a simple and unified way of rendering media from an origin to a destination of choice without requiring intimate knowledge about the underlying components, their connectivity and management.

Resolving partial media topologies

TL;DR: In this article, a topology loader is used to convert a partial topology into a full topology, which may then be returned to the media engine for presentation of the media stream(s) to a user.

Dynamic redirection of streaming media between computing devices

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a method for listening at an application programming interface for a notification indicating that a change is to be made in a topology of streaming media software components, and when the notification is received, a media engine that is capable of reconfiguring the topology in accordance with the indicated change is notified.

The New Routing Algorithm for the ARPANET

TL;DR: The new ARPANET routing algorithm is an improvement over the old procedure in that it uses fewer network resources, operates on more realistic estimates of network conditions, reacts faster to important network changes, and does not suffer from long-term loops or oscillations.

Hierarchical routing for large networks Performance evaluation and optimization

TL;DR: The specification, analysis and evaluation of some hierarchical routing procedures which are effective for large store-and-forward packet-switched computer networks are dealt with, finding that in the limit of a very large network, enormous table reduction may be achieved with essentially no increase in network path length.

Establishing Virtual Circuits in Large Computer Networks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new clustering technique which permits us to obtain optimal paths in a virtual circuit fashion, which is appropriate only if the paths are then used for many messages in virtual circuits.
