Yes, the source code is freely available (ported to FreeBSD and Linux) for anyone to obtain and use however you would like - no strings attached. As for on-line documentation. The main SCPS (Space Communication Protocol Standards) web site is located at www.scps.org which describes the underlying protocols. If you google on 'scps tp' you will see a bunch of stuff about SCPS in particular the SCPS transport layer (SCPS TP) and its use as a transparent transport layer proxy. Unfortunately I don't have a site that explains my work on it. But in general, it is used where the characteristics of the underlying network cause performance issues for applications using TCP as their transport mechanism. I have been involved in many different uses of it... Satellite Networking, RF environments, submarine comm, striping data from a single TCP connection among many low bandwidth links, etc... There are a handful of companies that sell commercial products based on the SCPS TP, and are deployed in wide variety of commercial and military environments. We don't have a site that it can be downloaded from. To obtain a copy of the code you simply need to send a quick request to Adrian Hooke adrian.j.hooke@jpl.nasa.gov and you will receive a copy of the code shortly. Hope this help and thanks for the interest. Please don't hesitate to contact me.
