Today's Braid 121: John Day on RINA

[Michael Toomim]

Today in 5 hours John Day will present on RINA, a new general model for internet architecture, at the Braid 121 meeting:

https://braid.org/meeting-121

John Day was involved in the development of the ARPANET and the OSI reference model that you have all seen. His new work on RINA proposes a simplification of the standard OSI model, where each layer becomes a recursive instance of the same general model as the other layers. Jonathan Kung has been researching RINA for some months, with a hunch that it could be a solution to some issues in P2P networking, and has connected John Day with us for today's meeting.

We will also have some updates on binary sync with braid-blob that Greg and Musaab have been working on with myself.

Following up on my two questions after John Day's talk re (no-) IPC and
(no-) connections, here two quotes from Richard W. Watson's Delta-t
document (https://doi.org/10.2172%2F5542785), page 2 (PDF page 9):

"Delta-t logically supports a permanent, reliable, flow controlled, full
duplex, labeled bit stream connection between two ports."

and later

"Communication within the LINCS architecture takes place between ports.
Ports are identified by 64 bit LIICS addresses. Ports are bound to
processes."

I would love to learn whether RINA and its abstractions can unwind
itself from these two assumptions, and go "data-centric".

Best, c
