We propose a new, “fast-track” handshake mechanism for TLS. A fast-track client caches a server’s public parameters and negotiated parameters in the course of an initial, enabling handshake. These parameters need not be resent on subsequent handshakes. The new mechanism reduces both network traffic and the number of round trips, and requires no additional server state. These savings are most us...

The lane change maneuver is among the most popular driving behaviors. It is also the basic element of important maneuvers like overtaking maneuver. Therefore, it is chosen as the focus of this study and novel multi-input multi-output adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system models (MANFIS) are proposed for this behavior. These models are able to simulate and predict the future behavior of a Dri...

Today, Internet traffic is encrypted only when deemed necessary. Yet modern CPUs could feasibly encrypt most traffic. Moreover, the cost of doing so will only drop over time. Tcpcrypt is a TCP extension designed to make end-to-end encryption of TCP traffic the default, not the exception. To facilitate adoption tcpcrypt provides backwards compatibility with legacy TCP stacks and middleboxes. Bec...

The deployment of a high speed, wide area ATM network introduces a “backwards compatibility” dilemma. While emerging ATM networks must be capable of transporting traffic sources such as digital voice and video, many of the design choices that optimize ATM for voice and video make the transport of traditional connectionless data traffic difficult. This paper proposes the overlay of a virtual dat...

We compare the cost-efficiency of optical networks based on mixed datarates (10, 40, 100Gb/s) and datarateelastic technologies. A European backbone network is examined under various traffic assumptions (volume of transported data per demand and total number of demands) to better understand the impact of traffic characteristics on cost-efficiency. Network dimensioning is performed for static and...

In recent years popularity of private cars is getting urban traffic more and more crowded. As result traffic is becoming one of important problems in big cities in all over the world. Some of the traffic concerns are congestions and accidents which have caused a huge waste of time, property damage and environmental pollution. This research paper presents a novel intelligent traffic administrati...

The performance of asphalt binders at high and low temperatures has an important role on the rutting and crackingresistance of asphalt pavements. Crumb Rubber Modified (CRM) is one of the asphalt modifiers that improves asphaltphysical and mechanical properties and helps reducing environmental pollution. In this research, three unmodifiedand six CRM modified binders were teste...

Due to its high protocol overhead, both in data traffic and in round-trips, Java RMI is poorly suited for communication over slow wireless links. However, its performance can be enhanced without breaking compatibility with Java RMI specification, and with minimal changes to existing software and network hosts. This paper analyzes the reasons for the poor performance of Java RMI, outlines a solu...

SafeTP makes FTP traffic secure, transparent, and interoperable. Security – confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity – is provided by a hybrid public-key and shared-key cryptosystem. Transparency – the ability to use existing FTP software and make it secure – is achieved by the insertion of a proxy layer. Interoperability – compatibility with the installed base of insecure FTP clients and s...

OBJECTIVE This research directly tests the relationship between comprehension probability of highway signs and the extent to which they comply with three ergonomic principles of design: sign-content compatibility, familiarity, and standardization. BACKGROUND A recent study that evaluated comprehension of traffic signs in four different countries showed that comprehension level varies widely a...
