This memo defines two MIB modules and corresponding MIB Object Definitions that describe how label-switching-controlled Frame-Relay and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) interfaces can be managed given the interface stacking as defined in the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB and MPLS-TE-STD-MIB.

In order to provide a highly formalized ontology merging of hierarchical information modeling for distributed management, the Extenics-based approach is introduced to formalize ontology merging of both Management Information Base (MIB) models and MIB instances. The aim of this paper is then to utilize ontology merging at the meta-schema level based on concept lattices to generate semantic model...

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing remote network monitoring (RMON) devices for use on high speed networks. This document contains a MIB Module that defines these new objects and also contains definitions of some updated objects from the RMON-MIB ...

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB), the Aggregation MIB modules, for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, the Aggregation MIB modules will be used to configure a network management agent to aggregate the values of a user-specified set of Managed Object instances and to service queries related to the aggregated Managed ...

The Internet-standard management protocol SNMP manipulates data structures that are defined in MIB modules. A large number of MIB modules has been defined over the last decade. Some of them are rather complex and full of technical details, which makes it hard to understand them. Furthermore, the limitations of the current data definition language make it impossible to formally express the conce...

The joint Jasmin project of the Technical University of Braunschweig and NEC C&C Research Laboratories is concerned with the development, implementation and practical evaluation of the management by delegation architecture standardized by the Distributed Management (DISMAN) working group of the IETF. This paper presents the open source software components that have been developed during the pas...

In motion-induced blindness (MIB), persistent static targets intermittently disappear when presented near moving elements [1, 2]. There is currently no consensus regarding the cause or causes of MIB [3-7]. Here, we link the phenomenon to a mechanism that is integral for normal human vision, motion streak suppression [8]. The human visual system integrates information over time [9], resulting in...

The usual way to describe the semantics of MIB objects is just to give an informal English text explaining each object’s behavior. Informal descriptions are vague and incomplete. They are open to misinterpretation and may lead to inconsistent implementations. In this work we propose the use of Action Semantics as a simple and powerful tool for the formal description of the behavior of MIB objec...

This paper reports the three-dimensional (3D) generalization of our previous 2D higher-order matched interface and boundary (MIB) method for solving elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients and non-smooth interfaces. New MIB algorithms that make use of two sets of interface jump conditions are proposed to remove the critical acute angle constraint of our earlier MIB scheme for treatin...

This paper introduces a novel high order interface scheme, the matched interface and boundary (MIB) method, for solving elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients and singular sources on Cartesian grids. By appropriate use of auxiliary line and/or fictitious points, physical jump conditions are enforced at the interface. Unlike other existing interface schemes, the proposed method disas...
