AES Advanced Encryption Standard (Belgium, Rijndael encryption algorithm)

US Dept Commerce announced 10/2/2000.Will replace DES (data encryption standard. Rijndael was developed by Belgian cryptographers Joan Daemen of Proton World International and Vincent Rijmen of Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. Each candidate algorithm was required to support key sizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits. They were evaluated for the strength of their security as well as for their speed and versatility across a variety of computer platforms. According to NIST, Rijndael was selected because it had the best combination of security, performance, efficiency, implementability and flexibility. A technical analysis of the AES candidates is posted on NIST's Web site. http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/aes/

Beowulf a kind of high-performance massively parallel computer built

primarily out of commodity hardware components, running a free-software

operating system like Linux or FreeBSD, interconnected by a private

high-speed network. It consists of a cluster of PCs or workstations

dedicated to running high-performance computing tasks. The nodes in

the cluster don't sit on people's desks; they are dedicated to running

cluster jobs. It is usually connected to the outside world through

only a single node.

RTR Response Time Reporter (Cisco’s tool incorporated in hardware OS)
RTR has a number of capabilities, but in essence what it does is send out network echo response packets, gathers the response information and then provides a basic report. It's also possible to measure jitter (variations in the timing between electronic pulses that can introduce errors), variation in delay and packet loss across the network, as well as create custom packets that mimic the behaviour of traffic generated by specific applications.
