Software packages for LSAM and X-Bone are available to download.

Software for managing the ABone Active Network Backbone virtual testbed can be downloaded from ABone Software.

The Active Networks ASP EE is essentially a user-mode operating system, providing services and resources to the active applications (AAs) executing within it. The services provided to AAs by the ASP EE are defined by the Protocol Programming Interface (PPI).

The Collaborative Simulation for Education and Research project CONSER offers ns-2 (Network Simulator) and Nam (Network Animator) for download, with documentation.

The COSSACK project is attempting to address the DDoS detection and response problem using an architecture that is highly distributed and uses coordination among the entities.

The Generic Authorization and Access-control API (GAA-API) provides fine-grained access control and application-level intrusion detection capabilities that are accessible to applications through a simple API. Applications can use this framework to delegate access control and application-level intrusion detection to the GAA-API. The GAA-API supports the needs of most applications, thus not forcing the developers to design their own authorization mechanisms.

Kerberos is a network authentication protocol. It is designed to provide strong authentication for client/server applications by using secret-key cryptography.

Source code is available for the S-MAC implementation in TinyOS from the MACCS (MAC Protocols Specific for Sensor Networks) site. S-MAC Source Code for Motes is also available.

The network emulator pkt is the basis of the MINT project. Pkt is a Tcl extension that allows the creation of arbitrary wire ready packets and direct access to the packet capture facility provided by the operating system.

Network Simulator NS-2 is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research. Ns provides substantial support for simulation of TCP, routing, and multicast protocols over wired and wireless (local and satellite) networks.

Network Animator NAM is a Tcl/TK based animation tool for viewing network simulation traces and real world packet traces. It supports topology layout, packet level animation, and various data inspection tool.

The SAMAN project is looking at the problem of how to make network protocols and operations more robust to failure. Our goal is to understand, detect and ultimately predict and avoid failure conditions.

The SUCSES project seeks to develop novel technologies for survivable security services, providing organizations with tight control. The SUCSES library and email addins are available for download.

The UltraGrid: High Definition Collaboratory project focuses on large scale telepresence systems. A download of the first demonstration, presented at SC2002, is available.

The Yoid project aims to develop scalable host-based distribution protocols which are layered over reasonably constructed tree topologies. The trees are constructed by the participating hosts and may use either native IP multicast, unicast tunnels, or a combination of both. Unlike the MBone, which is constructed using both native multicast and tunnels, Yoid is purely a host-based routing infrastructure.
