I hope this is acceptable to post here...
I just finished the book "Patterns in Network Architecture: A
Return to Fundamentals" by John Day and was going through the
'Documents and Publications' section of pouzinsociety.org where I
found this: "A Challenge for Researchers" - http://02d7097.netsolhost.com/images/A_Challenge_for_Researchers.pdf
Knowing there is a researcher or two on this list ;-) I wanted to
forward it onto the group. To me (an operator interested in the
architecture of the internet and its future, not a researcher) it's
a very interesting idea!
Hi Scott,
This came around back in April and I asked:
http://www.irtf.org/mail-archive/web/rrg/current/msg04922.html
If anyone offers an answer, I'll take another look. Until then, John
has a vaguely interesting idea but we have no shortage of vaguely
interesting ideas here
I would agree with that statement :-)
and it's not our role to show whether or why an
incomplete concept can't be completed.
I just replied Steve privately suggesting that the architecture list
may be a good place to send this pointer to.
My reason: the starting point and the basic reasoning of that short
(and very interesting) article is not IPC, but a basic understanding
of how to do system research (great subject for a broader discussion).
