Hybrid ARQ


It's one of the most cleverest of the retransmission protocol techniques.
Like this representation of the protocol which is least understood.

TCP IP illustrated


You pack your house in boxes and put your new address on them. The moving company picks them up, makes a list of the boxes, and ships them across country along the most efficient route -this may mean putting your dishes and your bedroom furniture on different trucks. Your belongings arrive at your new address. You consult your list to make sure that everything you shipped has arrived (in good shape), then you unpack your boxes and "reassemble" your house.

Am talking about TCP and IP.

This is how RLP works

What is an RFC?


What is an RFC?: "What is an RFC?"
This is what happens when you are in thick of actions but fail to define things. RFCs.

Few things before you forget
-most RFCs are the descriptions of network protocols or services, often giving detailed procedures and formats for their implementation

-Once a document is assigned an RFC number and published, that number is never reused, even if the RFC is revised

-The term RFC is a misnomer. Although most RFC authors surely won't mind if you give your opinions about the document, RFCs usually aren't really requesting your comments at all: they're statements or definitions

What am I reading ?


Picked up this book after two hours of book browsing at landmark forum.
Was looking for a book, which gives a good background into indian music + some theory. Looked like a good pick. Music in India by Bonnie C wade. First edition Published in 1979. This being written by a foriegner should be an interesting read to get an outsider's view on the subject. Other book I was likely to pick up was Encyclopaedia of world history by National geographic. 2000/- + Rs tag led to postponing for a later date.

Have you looked at yourself from the top ?

How excessively niche is the kind of work we do.
