MIC: An Interdomain Call Mechanism for Linux
MIC Mechanism for Interdomain Calls is an implementation of the lightweight remote procedure call mechanism in Linux. It introduces several additional functions in the Linux system call interface, enabling a thread to invoke procedures located in other address spaces of the same machine. To this end, the server domain has...

Evaluation of Error Control Mechanisms for 802.11b Multicast Transmissions
This paper presents several packet loss profiles collected during 802.11b multicast transmissions carried out under variable reception conditions mobile and fixed receivers. Then, an original approach consisting in mapping a posteriori some error control mechanisms over these observations is presented. This approach allows to evaluate the performance of these mechanisms...

Automating Service Dependency Management in a Service-Oriented Component Model
This paper describes a mechanism to automate service dependency management in a service-oriented component model. The impetus behind this mechanism is not merely to eliminate complex and error-prone code from component-based applications, but also to deal with the phenomena of application building blocks that exhibit dynamic availability, i.e., they may...

Link Prefetching in Mozilla: A Server-Driven Approach
This paper provides a synopsis of a server-driven link prefetching mechanism that have designed and implemented for the Mozilla web browser, a popular Open Source web browser. The mechanism depends on the origin server or an intermediate proxy server determining the best set of documents for the browser to prefetch....

Scalability of Linux Event-Dispatch Mechanisms
Many Internet servers these days have to handle not just heavy request loads, but also increasingly face large numbers of concurrent connections. In this paper, the authors discuss some of the event-dispatch mechanisms used by Internet servers to handle the network I/O generated by these request loads. The authors focus...

A Load Balancing Mechanism With Verification
This paper investigates the problem of designing load balancing mechanisms with verification for heterogeneous distributed systems. It derives a compensation and bonus type mechanism that solves the load balancing problem in distributed systems in which computers are characterized by linear latency functions. The paper proves that this mechanism is truthful...

A Truthful Mechanism for Fair Load Balancing in Distributed Systems
This paper considers the problem of designing load balancing protocols in distributed systems where the participants (e.g. computers, users) are capable of manipulating the load allocation algorithm in their own interest. Using techniques from mechanism design theory a mechanism for fair load balancing is designed in heterogeneous distributed systems. It...

A Window-Based Flow Control Mechanism Based on TCP Vegas With Explicit Congestion Notification
A window-based flow control mechanism is a sort of feedback-based congestion control mechanisms, and has been widely used in TCP/IP networks. Recently proposed TCP Vegas is another version of the TCP mechanism and has potential to achieve much better performance than current TCP Tahoe and Reno. This paper focuses on...

Multicast in 802.11 WLANs: An Experimental Study
While the deployment of WiFi networks continues to grow at an explosive rate, the multicast multimedia delivery service on WiFi compliant devices is still in its early stage of development. The real culprit is the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol, and in particular, the absence of feedback mechanism when multicast is...

Modified TCP Congestion Control Algorithm for Throughput Enhancement in Wired-Cum-Wireless Networks
The key idea proposed in this paper is to determine the Optimal Congestion Window for a TCP Sender in a particular network scenario that corresponds to the fair share of that connection and keep this congestion window a constant to a point where the fair share in the network has...

Speculative TCP Connection Admission Using Connection Migration in Cluster-Based Servers
This paper presents speculative TCP connection admission, a mechanism for improving sub-optimal request distribution decisions in cluster-based servers. Overloaded server nodes in the cluster speculatively accept incoming requests only to offload them to less-loaded nodes. Speculative admission uses connection endpoint migration, a technique that allows server-side connection endpoints to be...

Babel: A Version Management System for the Java Programming Language
For the deployment of large software systems powerful mechanisms for module and version management are essential. For both areas, the popular Java programming language, however, provides only limited support. Module management is supported by means of Java's package and jar le mechanisms which is mostly a packaging mechanism that just...

Gathering Evidence: Use of Visual Security Cues in Web Browsers
Web browsers support secure online transactions, and provide visual feedback mechanisms to inform the user about security. These mechanisms have had little evaluation to determine how easily they are noticed and how effectively they are used. This paper describes a preliminary study conducted to determine which elements are noted, which...
