In 1990 I named the NRN project “net what
?” http://www.ariadne-t.gr and declare its
existence to Stanford Research Institute

Theory and Network


This presentation considers there has been lots of
engineering but little science …
borrows the
analogy from computing
http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/dat/miranda/ctfp.
pdf http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/2204 that
theory helped fix computer architectural concepts
and achieve convergence in order for us today to
consider an ΙΝΤΕL code program to be the same
entity to an AMD program and a Java program to be
the same as a C program !
There is a need for something similar to occur in
Networking.

Το 1974 NCP basic network protocol is
replaced NCP by TCPIP to enable

A period of small and big network advances
take place that fit the pattern “automation of
manual operations”

Network in stage Ν is a composed from
An Automation-Quantum embedded upon
Net in stage Ν-1 gradually spreading
Auto-Q is a distributed application
“running” on a virtual CPU, using a virtual
MEMORY component (sumtotal of real Ms)
and is using as a virtual BUS the existing
Net to propage itself as a transformation
Meeting RINA

In 2009 googling (Net,Arch, Evolution, Patterns) I
came across the book “Patterns in Networking
Architecture” byJohn Day, the author says he has
been searching the question "What is Network" for 35
years, initially as a graduate student building
ΑRPANET, later writing RFCs, specialized in Protocol
Formal Specification, in brief a Nework pioneer where
sometime in 1994 he located “patterns” related to
network fundamentals. He was an OSI model's
specification reporter from 1990/4 he understands
OSI better than me that in 1994 declated “OSI can be
harmful” that missed its positive contribution.

Recursive InterNetwork Architecture

John Day says we must first see the "what" and then
proceed to "how " . If we do so, then TCP/IP splits
the layers differently (horizontal split instead of
vertical)), meaning TCP and IP should ne on the
same layer mechanism but using diffent POLICIES.
Left side is network Α and right side is network Β that
have different scopes. If a an application process
calls for connection between A and B then a new
network C (LAYER) must be “stacked” over them.
Network C is already there or created on-demand.
