Hubbard" Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I am a doctoral student for compuer science at NOVA University in Florida and I am looking fo assistance in creating and testing a new topology for LAN. The topology is called: N-dimension Network and it can be superior to Bus and Token ring in terms of packet flow and network capacity. My biggest problem is to actually create the software to run this type of network. It seems to me that FreeBSD is a perfect operating system to build this kind of topology. I am expecting to publish my results and willing to share the publication with another scholar who will help me apply it. I wonder if you can help me hookup with a person who knows the FreeBSD and also knows telecommunications. Regards, Yigal.-- Yigal Goldshtrom goldshtr@scis.nova.edu
