Routers Computing devices that receive and retransmit packets of information between networks. 

The critical information infrastructure (CII) is a subset of the critical infrastructure, composed of the totality of interconnected computers and networks and their critical information flows [8]0, comprising therefore a vast range of components and systems, extending from hardware (satellites, routers), to software (operating systems, Internet protocols, databases), to data (DNS tables), to the processes and operations applied for running them [16]0. The CII includes typical information systems and telecommunications services, but increasingly now industrial systems (as for instance, the remote control of installations). 

The collection system provides comprehensive coverage of the customer network. We estimate that more than 95% of the traffic that flows between the customer network and the internet is captured, however, we are aware of a small number of uninstrumented routers and occasional failures of parts of the collection system. The volume of traffic captured is some tens of gigabytes per day with some tens of terabytes currently available for analysis. This requires a large computational and storage facility to support historical analysis. Note that there are a number of sources of delay in the collection process and flow records do not arrive at the collection facility in temporal order. The data set consists of hourly files as described in the next section. In general, the data for one hour may not be complete until well into the next hour and real time analysis is not feasible. 

Scale free networks are common in nature, human relations, economy and technology. The Internet and WWW are important examples of scale-free networks. A possible reason for popularity of scale-free nets in nature may be their robustness in the presence of random node failures. Computer experiments have shown that Internet would not fall apart even if 80% of all routers fail [7]. 

Almost immediately after Mills and Huber published their analysis, scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory examined the underlying numbers in detail and found that the estimates of electricity used by the Internet were too high by a factor of eight.11 Major overestimates were found in every category, including the authors calculations of energy used by major dotcom companies, by the country s Web servers, by telephone companies central offices, by Internet routers and local networks, and by personal computers used in business and at home. The Internet did not consume 8 percent of U.S. electricity in 1998—it was closer to 1 percent. Computers, office equipment, and semiconductor manufacturers do not consume 13 percent of electricity—it is only 3 to 4 percent. 

Phase 5 Multiple CPUs And Intelligent Laboratory Devices On The Network. Computer manufacturers have developed systems with multiple CPUs and multiple operating systems (i.e. A Network). The construction of networks comprised completely of intelligent laboratory devices is a real possibility with the availability of the Ethernet Specification. Small local area networks of laboratory deices will develop using Ethernet and other technologies. Later these local networks will be interconnected probably via routers and gateways to broadband, Satellite, and telephone facilities. 

Computer network infrastructure should be qualified in support of validated applications. Bristol Meyer Squibb have adopted a three-level model to assist the quahfication of their computer network infrastrucmre. This approach is summarized in Table 14.3. Layer 1 comprises computers that provide shared resources such as servers, hosts, mainframes, and mini computers. Layer 2 is the network infrastrucmre (e g., hubs, routers, and switches). Layer 3 comprises the user desktop environment (i.e., workstations, personal computers, and laptops). 

Ethernet media can be divided into two general configurations or topologies bus and point-to-point. These two topologies define how nodes are connected to one another. A node is an active device connected to the network, such as a computer or a piece of networking equipment, for example, a repeater, a bridge, or a router. 

At the sending computer, the files are broken into packets. They are sent through a LAN or modem and gateway through routers to the receiving computer.

Another way to measure the growth of the Internet is by the increase in the number of Internet protocol (IP) addresses. Devices connected to the Internet are assigned an IP address. The current common form is an IP version 4 address, with 4 billion possible addresses. Because of growth in the number of host computers, routers, and users as well as inefficiencies in how IP addresses were first allocated, some industry analysts estimate all available IPv4 addresses will be allocated sometime in 2005. The number of next generation IPv6 addresses is estimated to be greater than 35 trillion,... 

The single-photon pulses of the detectors are fed into a router (see Sect. 3.1, page 29). Por each photon detected in any of the detectors, the router delivers a single-photon pulse and the number of the detector that detected the photon. The TCSPC module determines the time of the photon in the laser pulse sequence ( micro time ) and the time from the start of the experiment ( macro time ). The detector number, the micro time, and the macro time are written into a first-in-first-out (PlPO) buffer (see Sect. 3.6, page 43). The output of the PlPO is continuously read by the computer, and the photon data are written in the main memory of the computer or on the hard disc.

In this case, the managed system is a node such as a workstation, personal computer, or router. HP s Open fiew and Sun Microsystem s SunNet Manager are well-known conunercid SNMP managers. 

The monitoring system based on ZigBee and CAN technology is shown in Figure 2. The monitoring system includes the host computer, the CAN bus, the coordinator, the router node and the end node. 

The coordinator node receives the information from the router nodes over the wireless, meanwhile, it converges and deal with the data. Then, the data is transmitted to the host computer over the ground. The coordinator is the important node in the system. The coordinator which is the full functional device (FFD) builds the networks and receives the data from the router nodes or end nodes. The coordinator node can also control the router nodes or end nodes. 

The host computer with the monitoring software deals with the data from the mine. The data can be analyzed and stored. Then it can also be shown by the LCD screen or be printed in real time. The data is transmitted between the host computer and the coordinators by the CAN bus. The CAN bus adapts the non-destructive arbitration technique, which can avoid the bus collision. It ensures the capacity and the rate of the data. From Figure 2, we see that the data is transmitted between the coordinator node and the router node or the end node over the wireless. It is flexible to install the node underground over the wireless. Further more, it avoids the dangers of the cables such as the aging, the breakage and the corrosion... 

In order to enhance the anti-interference capability of the system, the optical isolators 6 N137 module is adapted between the transceiver and controller of the CAN bus.. The CC2420 module is the RF transceiver between the coordinator and the router node or the end node. First the RF transceiver CC2420 receives the information and transmit to the 80C51 microprocessor, then the information is transmitted to the host computer by the CAN bus. The keyboard module, the LCD display module and the alarm module are designed on... 

The case study processor used in this work is based in the Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages (MIPS) architecture. It has a standard processor architecture based on the Reduced Instraction Set Computing (RISC) instmction set. The basic idea behind RISC is to use simple instructions, which enable easier pipelining and larger caches, while increasing its performance. The MIPS architecture can be seen since 1985 in commercial applications, from workstations to Windows CE devices, routers, gateways and PlayStation gaming devices. 

The computer. It is connected to the router of the cell via a network cable or wireless coimection. 

Besides, having as many computers as there are elements in the CFF-ETSIA, it is necessary the existence of a master computer to coordinate them all. This computer, to be on the same network as the rest, must also be connected to the router to communicate with each of the modules. 

Computer networks consist of the hardware needed for networking, such as computers and routers the software that provides the basic connectivity, such as the operating system and middleware and applications, the programs that allow users to use the network. In understanding how these components work together, it is useful to look at the basic connectivity of the wide area network and contrast that to the way computers access the wide area network. 

Considerable research is done in computer networking by smaller companies. Cisco leads in router research and many other areas, such as wireless access points, video-conferencing equipment, and network management software. Symantec and MacAfee develop a great deal of security software for networks. Google, Yahoo , and Microsoft spend millions every year on research and development to develop a better search engine.
