TL;DR: From the Publisher: Directory Enabled Networks is a completely new paradigm for leveraging the network that can support existing applications and new network-aware applications that require dynamic, yet guaranteed levels of service while reducing the Total Cost of Ownership.
Abstract: From the Publisher: Directory Enabled Networks is a completely new paradigm for leveraging the network. Current network management applications are built using applications and protocols designed to manage individual devices. DEN is a way to manage the entire network. While networks are currently able to provide Class of Service and Quality of Service, these services currently require manual provisioning by experienced personnel, and therefore have high associated cost of ownership. If these services can be centrally controlled and provisioned by simpler means, they can support existing applications and new network-aware applications that require dynamic, yet guaranteed levels of service while reducing the Total Cost of Ownership. The DMTF (desktop management task force) has a DEN working group responsible for developing and finalizing the DEN specification. The DEN specification will also have ramifications within the LDUP (LDAP replication) and policy-based networking working groups at the IETF.

TL;DR: A survey of mobile agent based applications on above domains areas and implementation platforms are presented and the major function which mobile agents are better adapted for these domain areas are described.
Abstract: Summary A mobile agent is a computer entity capable of reasoning, use the network infrastructure to run in another remote site, search and gather the results, cooperate with other sites and return to his home site after completing the assigned tasks. Mobile Agent based applications research activities are increased and are applied in a wide range domain areas : network management, electronic commerce, energy efficiency and metering; Wireless Multimedia Sensors, grid computing and grid services, distributed data mining, multimedia, human tracking, security, affective computing, climate environment and weather, elearning, location, recommendation and semantic web services. In this paper, a survey of mobile agent based applications on above domains areas and implementation platforms are presented. The major function which mobile agents are better adapted for these domain areas are described.

TL;DR: This book covers ATM network management in both technical and dollars and cents terms to help network managers optimize their resources in implementing and maintaining ATM.
Abstract: From the Publisher: Many companies are turning to ATM to speed the transfer of information over networks: However,ATM is especially complex and costly to manage. This book covers ATM network management in both technical and dollars and cents terms. It presents a coherent detailed framework to help network managers optimize their resources in implementing and maintaining ATM. Readers will also find guidance on managing non-ATM high-performance broadband networks.

TL;DR: How to perform large-scale SNMP traffic measurements in order to develop a better understanding of how SNMP is used in production networks and provide feedback to SNMP protocol developers within the IETF, researchers working within the context of the IRTF-NMRG, as well as other researchers interested in network management in general.
Abstract: The simple network management protocol (SNMP) is widely deployed to monitor, control, and configure network elements. Even though the SNMP technology is well documented and understood, it remains relatively unclear how SNMP is used in practice and what the typical SNMP usage patterns are. This paper discusses how to perform large-scale SNMP traffic measurements in order to develop a better understanding of how SNMP is used in production networks. The tools described in this paper have been applied to networks ranging from large national research networks to relatively small faculty networks. The goal of the research is to provide feedback to SNMP protocol developers within the IETF, researchers working within the context of the IRTF-NMRG, as well as other researchers interested in network management in general. We believe that the results are also valuable for operators and vendors who want to optimize their management interactions or understand the traffic generated by their management software.

TL;DR: Several potential LEC residential video services are described, and the technology necessary to implement such services is discussed, including network access and transport, switching, network management, and customer premises equipment (CPE).
Abstract: A local exchange telephone company's (LEC's) investigation and development of new residential video services and the technologies and market needs that are making such services possible are discussed. Several potential LEC residential video services are described, and the technology necessary to implement such services is discussed, including network access and transport, switching, network management, and customer premises equipment (CPE). The LEC's experiences with residential video technology and service trials are presented along with new service implementation plans. >
