In particular, simulation has been performed to evaluate the tradeoffs between source-specific trees and shared trees, and between various routing algorithms. We show that the consideration of security brings a new set of tradeoffs in routing private multicast traffic. We describe these trade-offs between security, trust, knowledge of group membership and of topology, types of multicast tree, bandwidth consumption, and latency. We propose four methods to improve efficiency: message pruning, message reprocessing, hot-start authentication, and continuous authentication. This study of new trade-offs helps in choosing the appropriate multicast strategies for specific applications.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130545030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the wireline domain, the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is considered to be the chosen transport network to cater for a wide variety of services, to reach the user through a suitable access network. So, a scenario of mobile access and an ATM backbone, for mobile multimedia is of prime importance. The GSM is presently being standardised to cater for a multitude of services through the GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) provisions. Since the ATM and the GSM specifications have been evolving independently, they have to be bridged at some point. We cover issues concerning a general mobile access network to an ATM backbone, catering to mobile multimedia. In particular, we turn the focus towards the GSM system as an access network, and contradict some essential features for example, the cell relay over the mobile interface, that is popular at present in context of mobile multimedia.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131593904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In-sequence cell delivery and QoS guarantees are provided for on-demand connections without requiring any node-by-node configuration at the transit nodes. We describe the mobility management procedures of mobile tracking, mobile location, and active handoffs.

The complexity of emerging systems and services has raised the problem of model reuse to a critical stage. We present an open, object-oriented simulation system for communications networks that is currently being developed at Monmouth University as an integral part of a larger integrated environment for modeling, analysis, simulation and engineering of computer/communications systems. A primary objective of the open simulation system is to promote the reuse and sharing of simulation models for communications networks and their components. Particular attention is paid to traffic generation models which are greatly increasing in their complexity. The system presented is designed to ease the transition in the future to a distributed simulation environment.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"107 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120879501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result of the study, Eutelsat decided to enter into a contract with DRA for the provision of a transmitter location service. This paper discusses the major subjects treated in the study, with special attention to: the benefits, for location accuracy derived from the use of reference signals, the optimum measurement strategy, the potential enhancements of the current system and the manner in which Eutelsat intends to exploit the information provided by the TLS in the context of its network management procedures.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122320106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With fast fading, the simple branch metric considered is not maximum-likelihood. By deriving a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of an error floor, we show that, when the fading is not slow, it always exists, and decreases exponentially with the product of code diversity and space diversity.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116302492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
