Distributed Systems Ontology
João Henrique de Souza Pereira, Sérgio Takeo Kofuji, Pedro Frosi Rosa · 2009
Applications in distributed systems, have increased their complexity and demands of new requirements, since the TCP/IP design, e.g. requirements for mobility, security, QoS and throughput. The access technologies also have a history of continuous development, with the increase of its capacity and new transmission medium. This evolution in applications and new access technologies have not been followed by significant development in the main protocols of the layers 3 and 4 in the Internet architecture, as the IP, TCP and UDP. This study shows ontological deficiencies in the Internet architecture in supporting new applications requirements and proposes improvements for the next generation Internet, based on the applications needs.
