Rare Instance of Anti-Lan Antibody in a Man Lacking Lan Antigen.

Interconnected LAN/MAN Networks

This paper describes a methodology for designing interconnected LAN/MAN networks with the objective of minimizing the average network delay. We first consider IEEE 802 standard LAN’s interconnected by transparent bridges. These bridges are required to form a spanning tree topology. We propose a simulated annealing-based algorithm for designing minimum delay spanning tree topologies. In order to...

Topological Design of Interconnected LAN-MAN Networks

Network Architecture of a Packet-switched WDM LAN/MAN

We propose a packet-switched WDM slotted ring network with destination release. The total bandwidth of each channel is divided into a fixed number of equal-sized slots. The nodes are equipped with fixed transmitters and tunable receivers. Control information, which is transmitted on a specific wavelength, is electronically processed at every node while the payload is kept in the optical domain....

Architecture and Performance of A MAC for ATM LAN / MAN :

Le Réseau Numérique à Intégration de Services Large Bande (RNIS-LB), basé sur la Technique Temporelle Asynchrone (ATM: Asynchronous Transfer Mode en anglais), attire de plus en plus importantes du fait du support des applications très variés qu'il fournit. Les Réseaux Locaux (LAN: Local Area Network) et les Réseaux Métropolitains (MAN: Metropolitan Area Network), connectés au RNIS-LB, seront au...

A Network Evaluation for LAN, MAN and WAN Grid Environments

The performance of network protocols on different usage scenarios differs significantly, making the protocol choice a difficult question. This had motivated a work that aims to evaluate the TCP, UDP and Sendfile (a POSIXdefined zero-copy TCP access technique) protocols on LAN, MAN and WAN environments, in order to find the most adequate configuration for each protocol. The protocols were evalua...
