Yep, I have joined a few PN's. Can I just ask a very bold question? Who designed this site and were any member's requested for feedback on what to include on your website? The site is very badly laid out in relation to the information one requires should never be more than three clicks away and on this site you are going around in circles. There is no PN professional groups for information technology professionals other than communications and networks that do not cover all levels of IT since IT is not just communications and networks.
I have just started a MPHIL in:
"The Future of VPN's (Virtual Private Networks) and the convergence of heterogeneous computer networks to be controlled via the Internet with built in intelligent self healing capabilities".
My research revolves around the theory that the Internet or the Future Internet will evolve to a stage where there will be no need for companies and businesses to establish their own computer networks such as Ethernet and token ring. VPN technology, albeit, in its infancy will eventually reach a stage whereby the Internet will become the defacto standard to interconnect business LAN's (Local area networks) WAN's (Wide area networks) and MAN's (Metropolitan area networks).
TCP/IP has already become the defacto standard for the delivery of network packets. It is a guaranteed delivery protocol and informs the sender if the packets cannot be delivered for whatever reason. However, it does not report back the exact point of failure. This is where the failure of modern IP based networks is noticeable. There is virtually no built in intelligence that tries to forward these packets or tries to circumvent problems encountered. Future networks will require this built in intelligence to be present to not only avoid and circumvent navigation but intelligently (using fuzzy logic algorithms, AI etc) ensure delivery and report back to the network manager when a failure occurs. This report must be able to contain the exact point of failure. At present, if a failure on the network occurs it is a laborious task to underpin the point of failure eg: Is it the hub, switch, Network card, computer, port on the hub, switch etc.
I require your assistance to place me in touch with people or organisations who are conducting research into similar areas of networks.
I have not been able to locate anything in the library archive by conducting a search on VPN or Virtual private networks.
