Robotic applications impose hard real-time demands on their vision components. To accommodate the real-time constraints, the visual component of robotic systems are often simplified b y narrowing the scope of the vision system for a particular task. Another option as to build a generalized vision (sensor) processor and provides multiple interfaces, of differing scales and content, t o other mod...

This document describes stateful NAT64 translation, which allows IPv6-only clients to contact IPv4 servers using unicast UDP, TCP, or ICMP. One or more public IPv4 addresses assigned to a NAT64 translator are shared among several IPv6-only clients. When stateful NAT64 is used in conjunction with DNS64, no changes are usually required in the IPv6 client or the IPv4 server. Information about the ...

Enumerates and compares a number of security-enabling architectures for network clients. These architectures, either proposed as methodologies or currently implemented in software and/or hardware, are capable of protecting the client’s software integrity and its environment. The most important methodologies include the reference monitor model, firewalls, and virtual machines. Software implement...

We propose a design of a client reputation system that can be used to reduce unwanted traffic in the Internet. Many reputation systems proposed in the trust literature are provider-oriented, but because of different use and adversary models, their techniques are not directly applicable to client reputation systems. We survey the challenges of building client reputations, discuss two different a...
