This has been caused, in part, by the growth in the popularity of portable devices such as laptops, PDAs, and cell phones which require configuration each time they attach to a new network segment. Since the configuration of such devices is tedious and sometimes complicated, there have been some attempts in past years to solve this problem, such as the DHCP approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This paper focuses on the bandwidth analysis of two new approaches for dealing with resource discovery: the Service Location Protocol (SLP) and Jini. This work is particularly important since the communication among the devices is often wireless, whereas bandwidth is a limited resource. We present equations for characterizing the usage of bandwidth made by SLP and Jini, based on their specification, on previous work and experiments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/scs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/260\/TR-00-06_0.pdf\">TR-97-06.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carleton University Technical Report TR-97-06 May 1997 TR-97-06: Discrete Learning Automata Solutions to the Capacity Assignment Problem B.
