Multicast routing in datagram internetworks and extended LANs

TLDR
In this paper, the authors specify extensions to two common internetwork routing algorithms (distancevector routing and link-state routing) to support low-delay datagram multicasting beyond a single LAN, and discuss how the use of multicast scope control and hierarchical multicast routing allows the multicast service to scale up to large internetworks.
Abstract
Multicasting, the transmission of a packet to a group of hosts, is an important service for improving the efficiency and robustness of distributed systems and applications. Although multicast capability is available and widely used in local area networks, when those LANs are interconnected by store-and-forward routers, the multicast service is usually not offered across the resulting internetwork. To address this limitation, we specify extensions to two common internetwork routing algorithms—distance-vector routing and link-state routing—to support low-delay datagram multicasting beyond a single LAN. We also describe modifications to the single-spanning-tree routing algorithm commonly used by link-layer bridges, to reduce the costs of multicasting in large extended LANs. Finally, we discuss how the use of multicast scope control and hierarchical multicast routing allows the multicast service to scale up to large internetworks.

A signaling system using lightweight call sessions

TL;DR: A new signaling protocol that offers scalability, high availability, robustness, and flexibility in creating new call processing services, which is compatible with existing call setup protocols, but provides lightweight call session management using a completely decentralized, soft-state group control protocol.

Multicast routing protocol by multicast agent in mobile networks

TL;DR: The proposed protocol reduces data delivery path length and decreases not only the amount of duplicate copies of multicast datagrams but also multicast traffic load and gets an improved performance over the existing proposals.

A scalable eigenvalue solver for symmetric tridiagonal matrices

TL;DR: This paper describes the first distributed-memory implementation of the split-merge algorithm, an eigenvalue solver for symmetric tridiagonal matrices that uses Laguerre's iteration and exploits the separation property in order to create independent subtasks.

Supply Chain Management with Online Customer Selection

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered new online variants of supply chain management models, where in addition to production decisions, one also has to actively decide on which customers to serve, and the goal is to minimize the total cost of lost sales and production.

Data stream sharing

TL;DR: Windowed XQuery (WXQuery), the authors' XQuery-based subscription language for continuous queries over XML data streams supporting window-based operators is introduced, and a novel approach for optimizing the integration, distribution, and execution of newly registered continuous query over data streams in grid-based P2P networks is presented.

Dynamic Programming

TL;DR: The more the authors study the information processing aspects of the mind, the more perplexed and impressed they become, and it will be a very long time before they understand these processes sufficiently to reproduce them.

Internet Protocol

J. Postel
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
