The SATURN Development Group was an important industry forum that enabled the specification of chip to chip interfaces for the communications industry. It was co founded in 1992 by PMC Sierra and Sun Microsystems . Several significant specifications were completed through its actions including PL 2, PL 3 , and PL 4 . Many important semiconductor devices were developed to these specifications. SATURN was also influential in the specification of the ATM Forum s physical layer UTOPIA standards. Initial members included SynOptics and Interphase . The first meeting was held in April 1992. By August 1993, the SATURN group had 28 members. After the formation of the Optical Internetworking Forum OIF , two of the SATURN group s interfaces were successfully adopted by OIF. The PL 3 specification became SPI 3 and the PL 4 specification became SPI 4.2 . The existence of the OIF also eliminated the need for the SATURN Development Group, and it was wound down around 2002.

seealso Electronic learning An online lecture is an educational lecture designed to be posted online. Lectures are recorded to video, audio or both, then uploaded and made viewable on a designated Website site . Students may go to a certain designated site to view the lecture online at a time which is convenient for them. Traditionally, vocal education is possible only when the teacher and the pupil are together in the same room, where the teacher passes on the information in the same vicinity of the student. Online lectures are now possible with the advent of video communications. The development of the online lecture makes it possible so that the teacher and student no longer have to be in the same vicinity to teach and learn, respectively. There are certain advantages to online lecturing. Students may access online lectures posted on their designated websites anywhere in the world, at any time they wish, as long as they have an Internetworking internet connection . They can also be repeated for the sake of Notetaking note taking . There are disadvantages to online lecturing, namely the lack of face to face interaction, and the fact that students cannot easily contact their instructors unless a communications link is created.

The MultiLink Procedure MLP Subscription time selectable option exists as an added upper sublayer of the Data Link Layer , operating between the Packet Layer and a multiplicity of single data link protocol function s SLPs in the Data Link Layer. A MultiLink Procedure MLP must perform the functions of accepting Packet information technology packets from the Packet Layer, distributing those packets across the available Data circuit terminating equipment DCE or Data terminal equipment DTE SLPs for transmission to the DTE or DCE SLPs, respectively, and resequencing the packets received from the DTE or DCE SLPs for delivery to the DTE or DCE Packet Layer, respectively. MLP is an extension of LAPB that allows for multiple physical Data link links , thus providing better throughput. A device that has multiple LAPB links will implement MLP as an upper layer management protocol to allocate Frame networking frames to the links. MLP sees the multiple LAPB links as a pool of links for transmitting information from higher layer protocols as frames. Higher level software does not need to be aware that multiple links exist. The MLP layer handles distributing frames among the links, and thus gives upper layers full access to the links.

about PL 4, a networking protocol the PRC missile PL 4 PL 4 missile PL 4 or POS PHY Level 4 was the name of the interface that the interface SPI 4.2 is based on. It was proposed by PMC Sierra to the Optical Internetworking Forum . The name means Packet Over SONET Physical layer level 4. PL 4 was developed by PMC Sierra in conjunction with the Saturn Development Group. Context There are two broad categories of chip to chip interfaces. The first, exemplified by PCI Express and HyperTransport , supports reads and writes of memory addresses. The second broad category carries user packets over 1 or more channels and is exemplified by the IEEE 802.3 family of Media Independent Interface s and the Optical Internetworking Forum family of System Packet Interface s. Of these last two, the family of System Packet Interfaces is optimized to carry user packets from many channels. The family of System Packet Interfaces is the most important packet oriented, chip to chip interface family used between devices in the Packet over SONET and Optical Transport Network , which are the principal protocols used to carry the internet between cities. Applications PL 4 was designed to be used in systems that support OC 192 SONET interfaces and is sometimes used in 10 Gigabit Ethernet based systems. A typical application of PL 4 SPI 4.2 is to connect a framer device to a network processor. It has been widely adopted by the high speed networking marketplace. Technical details The interface consists of per direction sixteen LVDS pairs for the data path one LVDS pair for control one LVDS pair for clock at half of the data rate two FIFO status lines running at 1 8 of the data rate one status clock The clocking is Source synchronous and operates around 700 MHz.

Current mode logic CML , or source coupled logic SCL , is a Differential signaling differential digital logic family intended to transmit data at speeds between 312.5 bit s Mbit s and 3.125 Gbit s over a standard printed circuit board . ref Serial Interface for Data Converters, JEDEC standard JESD204, April 2006 ref File CML line.svg thumb right CML termination scheme The transmission is point to point, unidirectional and is usually Electrical termination terminated at the destination with 50 ohm resistor s to Vcc V sub cc sub on both differential lines. CML is the physical layer used in Digital Visual Interface DVI and HDMI video links, and is frequently used in interfaces to fiber optic components. This technology has been also used in design of high speed integrated circuits such as in telecommunication applications serial data transceivers, frequency synthesizers, etc. . This fast operation of CML circuits is mainly due to their lower output voltage swing compared to the static CMOS circuits and also the very fast current switching taking place at the input differential pair circuit.

SPI 4.2 is a version of the System Packet Interface published by the Optical Internetworking Forum . It was designed to be used in systems that support OC 192 SONET interfaces and is sometimes used in 10 Gigabit Ethernet based systems. SPI 4 is an interface for packet and cell transfer between a physical layer PHY device and a link layer device, for aggregate bandwidths of OC 192 Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM and Packet over SONET SDH POS , as well as 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. SPI 4 has two types of transfers Data when the RCTL signal is deasserted Control when the RCTL signal is asserted. The transmit and receive data paths include, respectively, TDCLK, TDAT 15 0 ,TCTL and RDCLK, RDAT 15 0 , RCTL . The transmit and receive FIFO status channels include TSCLK, TSTAT 1 0 and RSCLK, RSTAT 1 0 respectively. A typical application of SPI 4.2 is to connect a framer device to a network processor . It has been widely adopted by the high speed networking marketplace. The interface consists of per direction sixteen LVDS pairs for the data path one LVDS pair for control one LVDS pair for clock at half of the data rate two FIFO status lines running at 1 8 of the data rate one status clock The clocking is Source synchronous and operates around 700 MHz.

Unreferenced date October 2009 In computing , a logical address is the address at which an item memory cell, storage element, network host appears to reside from the perspective of an executing application program . A logical address may be different from the physical address due to the operation of an address translator or mapping function. Such mapping functions may be, in the case of a computer memory architecture, a memory management unit MMU between the CPU and the memory bus, or an address translation layer, e.g., the Data Link Layer , between the hardware and the internetworking protocols Internet Protocol in a computer networking system. Computer memory The physical address of computer memory banks may be mapped to different logical addresses for various purposes. For example, the same physical memory may appear at two different logical addresses and if accessed by the program at one address, data will pass through the CPU cache whereas if it is accessed at the other address, it will bypass the cache. In a system supporting virtual memory , there may actually not be any physical memory mapped to a logical address until an access is attempted. The access triggers special functions of the operating system which reprogram the MMU to map the address to some physical memory, perhaps writing the old contents of that memory to disk and reading back from disk what the memory should contain at the new logical address. In this case, the logical address may be referred to as a virtual address . Computer networking Other uses Logical address or virtual address is also used in IBM IBM s VM Operating system VM operating system and in Virtual Device Location .

Context date October 2009 Packet Layer Protocol or PLP is the Network Layer protocol for the X.25 protocol suite. PLP manages the packet exchanges between DTE data terminal devices across VCs virtual calls . PLP also can be used on ISDN using Link Access Procedures, D channel LAPD . There are 5 modes of PLP call setup, data transfer, idle, call clearing, and restarting. Call setup mode is used to create Virtual circuit VCs virtual calls between DTE devices. A PLP uses the 14 digit X.121 addressing scheme to set up the virtual call. Data transfer mode is used to send data between DTE devices across a virtual call. At this level PLP handles segmentation and reassembly, bit padding, error control and flow control . Idle mode is used when a virtual call is established but there is no data transfer happening. Call clearing mode is used to end sessions between DTE devices and to terminate VCs. Restarting mode is used to synchronize the transmission between a DTE device and its locally connected DCE data communications device. There are 4 types of PLP packet fields General Format Identifier GFI Identifies packet parameters whether it is data or control information , what type of windowing is being used, and whether delivery confirmation is needed. Logical Channel Identifier LCI Identifies the virtual call across the local DTE DCE interface. Packet Type Identifier PTI Identifies the PLP packet type 17 different types .

Tail Drop , or Drop Tail, is a simple Queue data structure queue management algorithm used by Internet Router computing router s to decide when to drop Packet information technology packets . In contrast to the more complex algorithms like Random early detection RED and Weighted random early detection WRED , in Tail Drop all the traffic is not Wiktionary differentiation Pronunciation differentiated . Each packet is treated identically. With tail drop, when the queue is filled to its maximum capacity, the newly arriving packets are dropped until the queue has enough room to accept incoming traffic. The name arises from the effect of the policy on incoming Packet information technology datagrams . Once a queue has been filled, the router begins discarding all additional datagrams, thus dropping the tail of the sequence of datagrams. The loss of datagrams causes the Transmission Control Protocol TCP sender to enter slow start , which reduces throughput in that TCP session until the sender begins to receive acknowledgement data networks acknowledgement s again and increases its congestion window. A more severe problem occurs when datagrams from multiple TCP connections are dropped, causing global synchronization i.e., all of the involved TCP senders enter slow start. This happens because, instead of discarding many Protocol data unit segments from one connection, the router would tend to discard one segment from each connection.

Orphan date February 2009 Staff Cloud is a term used to describe a massively distributed model of work production and staffing available within the cloud computing paradigm. In the Staff Cloud paradigm, work that is traditionally dependent on local offices, local talent pools, and local networks is shifted or extended to be accessible and deliverable via the Internet. Work production migrates to areas where better talent can deliver better results at lower cost. StaffCloud applications use massive peer to peer clusters of superior talent that deliver work through data centers and powerful servers that host web application s and web service s. They can be accessed by any organization with a suitable Internetworking Internet connection and a standard web browser. In the Staff paradigm, an organization has full and part time staff. In the Staff Cloud paradigm an organization has fewer local staff and a mix of work services payroll, human resources, marketing, sales, accounting, Research and development R & D from the available Staff Cloud . Architecture The architecture behind a StaffCloud is a network of staff service providers interconnected as if in a grid grid computing running in parallel. Work production follows a Server Oriented Architecture SOA where the organization pays only incrementally for work provided rather than incurring the costs and risks associated with salaried production. Parallelization across time zones allows for massive increases of work production while decreasing costs. Implementation Staff Cloud services are often provided using cloud computing applications and are designed to mimic the experience of local talent resources.
