NIC@SRI-NIC.ARPA (DDN Reference) (09/29/88)
The DDN Network Information Center has revised its bibliography of recent articles and books pertaining to TCP and IP, X.25, the Transport Protocol (TP-4), OSI and other standards. The bibliography was compiled as a background reading list for vendors. The bibliography cites articles, mostly from the open literature, representing a variety of viewpoints. It has not been sanctioned by any government agency, nor does it contain references to the Requests for Comments (RFCs). The NIC does not provide copies of these articles because they are readily available in the open literature. The NIC has copies of the DDN Protocol Handbook, the RFC index, RFCs and the OSD (Office of the Secretary of Defense) directives pertaining to the DoD protocol suite. The bibliography is available via FTP (host: sri-nic.arpa, username: anonymous, password: guest, filename: netinfo:protocols-dod.bib (text version), netinfo:protocols-dod.ps (postscript version)). Either version may be retrieved by electronic mail. To get the text version, for example, send a message to SERVICE@SRI-NIC.ARPA with the words SEND NETINFO PROTOCOLS-DOD.BIB in the subject line. Contact NIC@SRI-NIC.ARPA if you have questions or comments or telephone 800-235-3155. -------
