    N92-12499 Networking Standards Mark Davies, Digital Equipment Corporation ABSTRACT The enterprise network is currently a multivendor environment consisting of many defacto and proprietary standards. During the 1990s, these networks will evolve towards networks which are based on international standards in both the LAN and WAN space. Also, you can expect to see the higher level functions and applications begin the same transition. The Open Network Advantage Market Requirements OPEN NETWORKS!!! Multi-protocol, multi-platform, multi-vendor networks working together International AND defacto standards Effortless communications within and between enter- prises Ability to move to standards at own pace What is an Open System? Defined as: A vendor-neutral computing environment: - compliant with International and defacto standards - permits system and network interoperability or software applications portability - includes consistency of data and human access - satisfies one or more of a business's functional requirements Standards Benefits from networks based on international and defacto standards o Vendor independence o Applications portability o Investment protection o Improved communications leading to increased productivity o Network flexibility 13DSDDED Network Architectures: DECnet, OSI, TCP/IP DECnet OS) IP Application Application Internet Applications Protocols Presentation DMA Session Control Session Transport Transport Transport (NSP) (TP 0,2,4) (TCP / UDP) Network Network Network (CLNS) (CLNS/CONS) (IP) Data Link Data Link Data Link

  • Application Layer
    APPLICATION LAYER The application layer in the OSI model is the closest layer to the end user which means that the application layer and end user can interact directly with the software application. The application layer programs are based on client and servers. The Application layer includes the following functions: • Identifying communication partners: The application layer identifies the availability of communication partners for an application with data to transmit. • Determining resource availability: The application layer determines whether sufficient network resources are available for the requested communication. • Synchronizing communication: All the communications occur between the applications requires cooperation which is managed by an application layer. Services of Application Layers o Network Virtual terminal: An application layer allows a user to log on to a remote host. To do so, the application creates a software emulation of a terminal at the remote host. The user's computer talks to the software terminal, which in turn, talks to the host. The remote host thinks that it is communicating with one of its own terminals, so it allows the user to log on. o File Transfer, Access, and Management (FTAM): An application allows a user to access files in a remote computer, to retrieve files from a computer and to manage files in a remote computer. FTAM defines a hierarchical virtual file in terms of file structure, file attributes and the kind of operations performed on the files and their attributes. o Addressing: To obtain communication between client and server, there is a need for addressing. When a client made a request to the server, the request contains the server address and its own address.

NIST, originally founded as the National Bureau of Standards in 1901, works to strengthen U.S. industry's competitiveness; advance science and engineering; and improve public health, safety, and the environment. One of the agency's basic functions is to develop, maintain, and retain custody of the national standards of measurement, and provide the means and methods for comparing standards used in science, engineering, manufacturing, commerce, industry, and education with the standards adopted or recognized by the Federal Government. As an agency of the U.S. Commerce Department's Technology Administration, NIST conducts basic and applied research in the physical sciences and engineering and performs related services. The Institute does generic and precompetitive work on new and advanced technologies. NIST's research facilities are located at Gaithersburg, MD 20899, and at Boulder, CO 80303.

  • DRIVE/WINDOWS V1.1 SQL Statements For
    Preface DRIVE/WINDOWS allows you to access the SQL database system using SQL statements. While this directory gives you a brief description of the syntax of the DRIVE SQL statements for UDS, a detailed description is provided in the "SQL for UDS/SQL V1.0 Language Reference Manual" [13]. This directory describes the DRIVE SQL statements for UDS of the DRIVE/WINDOWS version 1.1 for BS2000 and SINIX. Complex statement sections which occur in both DRIVE and SQL statements are described separately in the chapter on "Metavariables" in the "DRIVE/WINDOWS V1.0: System Directory" [3]. Additional DRIVE SQL metavariables which are not included in this chapter are described in this statement directory under "UDS metavariables". The term "with the TP monitor" refers to UTM mode in BS2000. SQL return codes are accepted by UDS/SQL and output by DRIVE/WINDOWS as error messages in the form DRI9xxx. For their meaning, refer to the "SQL for UDS/SQL (BS2000) V1.0: Language Reference Manual" [13]. U20073-J-Z145-2-7600 1 UDS/SQL statements CLOSE Close the cursor CLOSE closes a cursor that you declared with the DECLARE statement for a query expression and opened with the OPEN statement. The cursor declaration is retained. You must open the cursor using the OPEN or RESTORE statement before accessing the cursor again using the FETCH statement. An open cursor is closed at the end of a transaction. In program mode, cursors can only be referenced in the source file in which they were declared. CLOSE cursor cursor Name of the cursor you wish to close.

  • The Architecture of Open
    Preface By Professor Brian Warboys, University of Manchester It is now some 20 years since the foundations of the VME architecture were laid. The original objectives were to produce an architecture which would be flexible enough to allow for the many changes that were inevitable in the market, in the enabling technologies and in the end-user demands for IT systems. At the same time it was imperative that the architecture should be constraining enough to control the very long development process that long life implies. The result was essentially to define a simple but powerful approach which has basically remained unchanged during its long life. This is not a tribute to the remarkable foresight of the many people who contributed to that design but rather confirmation of the long known but often forgotten maxim that the best solution to mastering complexity is by the formulation of simple rules. The basic rules, which are enshrined in the architecture, have not had to be reformulated but merely extended in order to produce an architecture which meets the modern demands of Open Client-server systems. The essential architectural simplicity which guided the development of a complex Operating System throughout the 70's and 80's is as applicable in the 90's. Moreover this approach has been thoroughly tested over the last twenty years and there should be no doubt in anybody's mind about the capability of the OpenVME architecture to manage the complex design issues which confront modern Client-server systems. A splendid side effect of this text is that, for the first time, it enumerates, in a readily digestible form, the thinking behind the VME architecture.
