  • A distributed local computer network : FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat NETwork)

    Creator:
    Kang, Yong Joong
    Abstract:
    FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat) is a communication subnet architecture utilizing a hybrid application of point-topoint and broadcast communications to achieve a high degree of network performance. This objective is achieved through utilizing a dual bus structure: a data bus and a control bus. The data bus consists...

  • A graphical ethernet monitoring system (GEMS)

    Creator:
    Park, Chung Min
    Abstract:
    GEMS (Graphical Ethernet Monitoring System) is an enhancement to the SU-PC/IP NETWATCH program, for the graphical display and recording of computer network packets. SU-PC/IP (Stanford University Personal Computer/Internet Protocol) NETWATCH displays one line of information per packet, including the packet type, IP addresses, packet size, and protocol type, etc. This...

  • A simple local area network, COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network)

    Creator:
    Zheng, Yuepeng
    Abstract:
    COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network ) is a redesign of the Task-Master, a daisy-chain structure distributed control system. COLAN is a simple bus structure communication subnetwork intended for distributed control applications. Low cost and simplicity are two main design criteria. Point-to-point and broadcast communications are possible. A packet switching...

  • A text display node for a control oriented local area network

    Creator:
    Ji, De
    Abstract:
    In recent years, integrated circuit technology has spawned the development of many low cost and high performance microprocessors and microcontrollers. With these devices, there is an increasing interest in the implementation of distributed control networks, utilizing microprocessors in the control nodes. In this work, a low-cost liquid crystal display (LCD)...

  • An efficient data transfer protocol for Ethernet

    Creator:
    Hegde, Anoop R.
    Abstract:
    Most general purpose protocols are found to suffer from inefficiency in an Ethernet LAN environment when used for large volume data transfer. This is especially true with the TCP/IP family which was designed for a wide area network. This research work presents a proof of this inefficiency and proposes a...

  • Analysis of new protocols for computer communication networks

    Creator:
    Warner, Clifford John
    Abstract:
    An advanced forward 'area tactical radar network, now under conceptual development by the Air Force Electronic Systems Division, can be viewed as a novel form of computer network but with other unique problems resulting from the specialized nature of the application. The proposed network will link together a number of...

  • Concurrent message transmission on short delay ring networks

    Creator:
    Xu, Mingcheng
    Abstract:
    Two new medium access protocols for ring type local area networks, CTR (Concurrent Token Ring) protocol and DRUID (Destination Removal withoUt Intermediate node Delay) ring protocol, are proposed, designed and analyzed. A destination partial removal technique is designed and used in these two protocols to support concurrent message transmission and...

    Creator:
    Yu, Hua
    Abstract:
    EDLAN is a simple, inexpensive local area network suitable for educational applications. In EDLAN, a number of personal computers are connected through an RS-485 global bus which carries the data transmission among the computers. CSMA/CD protocol is used to control the access of the global bus. The communications are controlled...

  • Fault diagnosis in a fully distributed local computer network

    Creator:
    Kwag, Hye Keun
    Abstract:
    Local computer networks are being installed in diverse application areas. Many of the networks employ a distributed control scheme, which has advantages in performance and reliability over a centralized one. However, distribution of control increases the difficulty in locating faulty hardware elements. Consequently, advantages may not be fully realized unless...
