Although active networks have generated much debate in the research community, on the whole there has been little hard evidence to inform this debate. This paper aims to redress t...
Active networks allow their users to inject customized programs into the nodes of the network. An extreme case, in which we are most interested, replaces packets with “capsulesâ...
Active-network technology envisions deploying execution environments in network elements so that application-specific processing can be applied to network traffic. To provide safe...
