Hello everybody,

I'll be doing a project simulation for a high speed mass data transfer protocol.
Will be needing your help..

If anybody interested or want to contribute they are humbly invited.. :)
Just drop me a mail at:

Change queue parameters dynamically during the simulation r

Dear friend,
I want to change parameters of a RED queue during the simulation but it seems that some parameters can be modified only before starting the simulation, not dynamically, while the simulation is in progress. For example the following subroutines works before $ns run command but it do not affect the behavior of the queue during the simulation( I want to change maxthresh_ and thresh_ after $ns run command):
#---------------------------------------------------------------
proc setREDParameters { redQueue MINth MAXth PER_MaxP Wq } {
$redQueue set thresh_ $MINth
$redQueue set maxthresh_ $MAXth
$redQueue set q_weight_ $Wq
$redQueue set linterm_ $PER_MaxP
return $redQueue
}

Who knows what I should do ?

Submitted by Nhan (not verified) on Fri, 05/15/2009 - 07:47.

Now, I want to simulate SCTP on NS-2. And I use NS-2 2.32. I want to know does NS-2 2.32 support SCTP???
Thank for your help.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers

Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.

Red Hat White Paper: Using an Open Source Framework to Catch the Bad Guy

Built-in forensics, incident response, and security with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
