The asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a promising technique for broadband switching that is capable of supporting high-bit-rate multimedia services. Progress in all-optical parallel processing shows that photonics may be used in the future in full-functionality ATM switching nodes. All-optical switching fabrics and buffers have already been demonstrated. Fewer studies have been dedicated to A...

Wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) transfer information-intensive data (e.g. audio, video, image), so it is necessary to utilize wireless channel efficiently. Header compression is a useful mechanism which can reduce the amount of data transferred and can improve channel utilization efficiency. Based on the characteristics of WMSNs, an advanced adaptive header compression (AAHC) scheme...

Due to bandwidth constraints on the wireless link in an IP network, it is useful to compress the headers so as to maximize the utilization of the link. Different Header Compression schemes have been proposed. Some make use of the similarity in consecutive headers in a packet flow to compress these headers. These are called here time compression, as they acquire the compression information over ...

Streaming applications often tolerate bit errors in their received data well. This is contrasted by the enforcement of correctness of the packet headers and payload by network protocols. We investigate a solution for the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) that is tolerant to errors by accepting erroneous data. It passes potentially corrupted stream data payloads to the codecs. If errors occur i...

This document specifies how Label Edge Routers (LERs) should behave when determining whether to MPLS encapsulate an IPv4 packet with header options. Lack of a formal standard has resulted in different LER forwarding behaviors for IPv4 packets with header options despite being associated with a prefix-based Forwarding Equivalence Class (FEC). IPv4 option packets that belong to a prefix-based FEC...

The DF-4 is a new defibrillator lead technology. We present two cases of non-physiological transient ventricular over-sensing in patients who underwent implantation of an ICD for secondary prevention. Case 1 had ventricular over-sensing during pacing threshold evaluation post defibrillation testing while Case 2 had the lead integrity alert triggered immediately post discharge with transient ove...

One of the main purposes of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) developments was to solve the IP address depletion concern due to the burgeoning growth of the Internet users. The new Internet protocol provides end-to-end communication, enhanced security and extensibility apart from the other features such as address auto-configuration or plug-and-play and faster packet processing in the routers....

This paper considers the method of the header files automated analysis. The method is intended for the LSB standardization process support. The suggested approach is based on the usage of the cpp preprocessor and gcc compiler high-level representation, their extensions and additional analyzers. The basic work stages of tool implementing the suggested method are introduced. Also tool application...

This memo contains a table of commonly occurring headers in headings of e-mail messages. The document compiles information from other RFCs such as RFC 822, RFC 1036, RFC 1123, RFC 1327, RFC 1496, RFC 1521, RFC 1766, RFC 1806, RFC 1864 and RFC 1911. A few commonly occurring headers which are not defined in RFCs are also included. For each header, the memo gives a short description and a referenc...

Compilation time can be improved by precompiling interfaces so that the compiler can avoid processing unreferenced declarations. However, in C-based languages precompiling a header is difficult because a header can have several meanings depending on the context in which it is included. We present an ad hoc solution to this problem, and give the results of our precompilation strategy, which impr...
