  2. Themis programme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Themis_programme

    Themis will be powered by the ESA's Prometheus rocket engine. [1] Two possible landing sites have been mentioned in discussions surrounding the project: [2] The former Diamant launch complex, which will be used for the flight testing phase; [3] The Ariane 5 launch complex, which will become available after the transition from the Ariane 5 to ...

  3. Delay-tolerant networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay-tolerant_networking

    Delay-tolerant networking (DTN) is an approach to computer network architecture that seeks to address the technical issues in heterogeneous networks that may lack continuous network connectivity. Examples of such networks are those operating in mobile or extreme terrestrial environments, or planned networks in space.

  4. LOM port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOM_port

    The LOM port (Lights Out Management port) is a remote access facility on a Sun Microsystems server. When the main processor is switched off, or when it is impossible to telnet to the server, an operator would use a link to the LOM port to access the server. As long as the server has power, the LOM facility will work, regardless of whether or ...

  5. Ephemeral port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephemeral_port

    An ephemeral port is a communications endpoint of a transport layer protocol of the Internet protocol suite that is used for only a short period of time for the duration of a communication session. Such short-lived ports are allocated automatically within a predefined range of port numbers by the IP stack software of a computer operating system.

  6. Port (computer networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_(computer_networking)

    In computer networking, a port or port number is a number assigned to uniquely identify a connection endpoint and to direct data to a specific service. At the software level, within an operating system , a port is a logical construct that identifies a specific process or a type of network service .

  7. Nagle's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagle's_algorithm

    Nagle considers delayed ACKs a "bad idea" since the application layer does not usually respond within the delay window (which would allow the ACK to be combined with the response packet). [2] For typical (non-realtime) use cases, he recommends disabling delayed ACK instead of disabling his algorithm, as "quick" ACKs do not incur as much ...

  8. NetBIOS over TCP/IP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetBIOS_over_TCP/IP

    NBT exposes information and interfaces that are often appropriate for a LAN under an organization's administrative control, but which are not appropriate for a less trusted network such as the Internet. For example, the NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS), running over UDP or TCP port 137, allows any computer to register its hostname with other computers.

  9. Delayed binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_binding

    Delayed binding, also called TCP connection splicing, is the postponement of the connection between the client and the server in order to obtain sufficient information to make a routing decision. [1] Some application switches and routers delay binding the client session to the server until the proper handshakes are complete so as to prevent ...
