DP-DPO

Internet traffic depends on a complex association of previously recorded data objects. This document defines an association mechanism that provides an extensible and scalable protocol to access persistent data. The mechanism is called the Discovery Protocol for a Directory of Persistent Objects (DP-DPO).

A good example of IT manager's resistance to add additional tables to their routing infrastructure is the lack of native support for MSDP on the Internet2.

Providing an IPV6 compatible Discovery Protocol that could efficiently discover the sources for IP Anycast and IP Multicast would be a good initial use for the Directory of Persistent Objects. Internet Message Processors could retain (cache) the more frequently used persistent objects, hence increasing performance without maintaining a separate table for MSDP.

E-SUPER DOMINO

Worldcast proposes research into E-SUPER DOMINO, which stands for Enhanced Security Utilizing Public and Emergent Reliable Distribution of Multipoint Inter-domain Networking Objects. A “super domino” is one that is linked to others but is impervious to single point failure. Reliability is added to base level point-to-multipoint communications infrastructure with Worldcast’s SMART technology. Worldcast’s technology layers security, reliability and provides for multipoint feedback from mass audiences.

M-PRESS

M-PRESS stands for Multi-Point Repeating for Enhanced Security System. An “M-PRESS” system is a multipoint network that hides the multipoint infrastructure addresses making it impervious to attack from stolen command and control software components. M-PRESS security is added to base level point-to-multipoint communications infrastructure with Worldcast’s SMART REPEATING technology.

Worldcast’s technology layers security, reliability and provides for multipoint feedback from mass audience communication links (point-to-multipoint).
