Label Switching Using The Ipv6 Address Hierarchy, P. Boustead, Joe F. Chicharo
Faculty of Informatics - Papers (Archive)
Current label switching protocols can use routing, address, and address hierarchy information to group flows for cut-throughs that bypass IP forwarding. This paper examines a label switching solution that uses the IP version 6 (IPv6) address structure to classify and cut-through flows based on address hierarchy. The performance of this approach is examined using actual backbone traffic traces with associated hierarchical address information obtained from Internet address registries, routing arbiter databases and route servers. This hierarchical address information is used to map a hierarchical address structure over the packet level trace. We investigate the relationship between aggregation bit-mask size versus …

The growing popularity of delay-sensitive multi-player games over the Internet is creating a need for proper characterisation of such traffic. We are currently developing source models for game traffic, on a per-player basis, with the intended use being to scale the models to simulate scenarios involving large numbers of players, which will enable us to observe the effects of game traffic on the network. We outline the procedure used, and we show that for certain cases, relatively simple source models are able to provide sufficiently accurate results (in terms of mean delay and mean buffer occupancy).

There are several robots and other devices which can now be controlled over the Internet. It is possible that an expansion of this concept ultimately leading to an Internet controlled factory could assist Australia overcome the 'tyranny' both of distance and of small production volumes. This paper discusses initial work being performed to investigate the relevance and practicality of the Internet for remote factory operations. A review of current Internet controlled equipment is presented. New experimental work involving the development of a web based graphical interface enabling clear observation and control of an Adept-One robot over the World Wide Web …
