Detailed Analysis of Frame Relay VPNs and IP-VPNs
Overview Say “VPN” and most people think Internet technology. Generically defined, a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a means of transmitting digital information over a shared public network infrastructure in which secure and reliable connectivity, management and addressing is equivalent virtually to that of a private network. Despite the recent excitement about IP-VPNs, Layer 2 VPNs have been available since the mid to late 1980s as VPDNs. Current managed frame relay services run mission-critical applications and provide secure, stable predictable and highly manageable solutions. Several market drivers are fueling the euphoria surrounding IP-VPNs. A comparison of IP-VPN and frame relay services in relation to these market drivers may serve to clarify the current situation.

Broadcasting Over Switched Single Beam Antennas
In switched single beam directional antenna model, broadcasting is achieved by sequentially steering the antenna beam across all pre-defined directions resulting in a sweeping delay. This paper studies suggested techniques...
Performance of Information Discovery and Message Relaying in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
This paper presents 7DS, a novel peer-to-peer resource sharing system. 7DS is an architecture, a set of protocols and an implementation enabling the exchange of data among peers that are...
Performance Evaluation of Approximation Algorithms for Multipoint Relay Selection
In Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET), the selection of Multipoint Relays provides an efficient routing scheme for efficient broadcast and shortest-path unicast. As such a selection is NP-hard, a heuristic...
Modeling the Performance of Flooding in Wireless Multi-Hop Ad Hoc Networks
One feature common to most existing routing protocols for wireless mobile ad hoc networks, or MANETs, is the need to flood control messages network-wide during the route acquisition and maintenance...
Toward Broadcast Reliability in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks With Double Coverage
The broadcast operation, as a fundamental service in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs), is prone to the broadcast storm problem if forwarding nodes are not carefully designated. The objective of...
