ARP Entity (report received)
A hardware ARP entity has been specified, implemented and
verified. This hardware accelerator can reduce the load on the main
CPU in an IPv4 host attached to an Ethernet LAN. The static timing
analysis show that the accelerator could be used even in 10 Gigabit
Ethernet. The ARP entity cache consists of at most 8 entries. An
aging mechanism has been implemented.

Schemes for improving TCP performance
in wireless and mobile computing environments
Reliable transport protocols like TCP is best suited for wired
networks where the packet losses are mainly due to
congestion. wireless networks are characterized by losses due to
transmission errors and handoffs. TCP interprets these losses as
congestion and invokes congestion control mechanisms which in turn
degrade the performance. in this paper we discuss about the
performance degradion of TCP in wireless and mobile networks and
some proposed schemes to improve TCP performance.

Dynamic Routing Protocols
I would like to present a term paper about dynamic routing
protocols: distance vector protocols, link state protocols and the
eventuals advantages of a hybrid protocol based on both algorithms.

Voice Over IP
The IP telephony concept is growing bigger and the number of
companies interested is continuously increasing. The fact that it
is possible to route traditional calls over IP networks by using
gateways is a reality now. Both the ITU and the IETF are involved in
the standardization, and their protocols are competing to become the
de facto standard. The paper give an overview about important
issues that are involve in Voice communication over IP networks.
The paper structure is presented in the following. In the first
section an introduction is given to reveal today status of voice
transmission using IP Networks. The second section decribe 3
application in order to show the usability of this technique. The
third section give a more detailed description of the voice over
packet networks architecture. The fourth section describe briefly
the protocols involve in Voice over IP and give a comparation
between SIP and H.323. The fifth section deal with QoS in Voice
Over IP applications. The last section give some conclusions regard
voice application in IP based Networks.

Reliable Multicast File Transfer Protocol
RMFTP is a file transfer protocol using push technology to deliver
files from one sender to multiple recipients at the same time. To
achieve efficiency, RMFTP employs multicast technology rather than
unicast. Since IP multicast provides no guarantee that the
transmitted IP datagram really achieves the destination, RMFTP, as a
transport layer protocol, provides reliability.

Simple NFS server (report received)
In a distributed environment it is important that information can be
moved between computers. The Network File System is a protocol based
on the TCP/IP protocol suit, and allows users to share files over a
network. As an exercise in the Ecsel course on TCP/IP, I
implemented a simple NFS server. The server, which supports a small
part of the NFS v2, allows you to mount a directory structure, and
to read files and directories.
