  ALOHAnet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It has been suggested that Aloha protocol be merged into this article or section.
One of the early computer networking designs, the ALOHA network was created at the University of Hawaii in 1970 under the leadership of Norman Abramson.
Slotted Aloha was a modification to the Aloha protocol which raised the channel utilisation efficiency up to around 35%.

 Medium Access Control Protocols Performance in Satellite Communications
MAC protocols are designed to coordinate the transmission of packets, retransmission of damaged packets, and resolution of collisions among stations during a contention period.
MAC protocols for satellite communication can be classified based on their functionality with respect to the static or dynamic nature of the channel, the centralized or distributed control mechanism for channel assignments, and the adaptive behavior of the control algorithm.
The first two groups of protocols are contention-free protocols by either static allocation (fixed assignment) or dynamic allocation (demand assignment) for the channel, while the last three groups of protocols are contention-oriented protocols where congestion takes place on either the data channel (random access) or the signaling channel (hybrid of random access and reservation).

 HOWTO - Aloha protocol   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
This is mainly because the Aloha network service is not yet integrated into the protocol stack.
The satellite nodes continually transmit Aloha frames to the master, adhering to the Aloha protocol by randomly backing off whenver there is a collision.
The script measures the efficiency of the protocol by counting the number of successfully used timeslots (ie timeslots where there was only one transmission) and dividing that by the total number of timeslots used.

ALOHA is a multiple-access protocol, used to allocate channels on a multiple-access medium.
It gets its name from the Hawaiian word for hello: "aloha", since the idea was originally developed by a team of researchers in Hawaii, led by Norman Abramson.
A system implementing the ALOHA protocol is called a contention system (a system whereby multiple users are accessing the medium, with the possibility of conflicts occurring).

The slotted ALOHA protocol works by dividing time into discrete intervals, and allowing only one frame to transmit during this interval.
The slotted ALOHA protocol is around twice as efficient as pure ALOHA: it can send approximately twice the number of messages without conflicts occurring.
However, despite this improvement, at best case the slotted ALOHA protocol can be expected to have 37% of slots empty, 37% of the slots carrying successful messages and 26% of the slots will come into conflict.

 Aloha protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Aloha Protocol is a layer 2 (Layer 2 is the Data Link layer of the OSI model) protocol for LAN networks with broadcast topology.
It was used for the first time in the Packet Radio System of the University of Hawaii in 1970.
An improvement to the original Aloha protocol was Slotted Aloha, which introduced discrete timeslots.

 CS 336 Lecture Notes -- Aloha   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
As a form of homage, it is traditional to start discussions of contention protocols with a consideration of the first such protocol implemented, the Aloha protocol.
Consideration of Aloha is useful to illustrate the impact of the choices between slotted and unslotted and between using and not using carrier sensing.
The key idea behind the difference between pure and slotted Aloha is that shrinking the "window of vulnerability" during which a packet may suffer a collision around the beginning of its transmission is a way to improve efficiency.

 Computer Networks Notes 4
The 802.11b protocol resembles the Aloha reservation system described in Section 2.1, but does not require participation by a central hub, and does not assume that all units are within range of each other.
One way to think of an Aloha protocol is that the hub acts as a broadcast medium, reflecting to all units all the messages it gets, perhaps including the packets which have collisions.
Because the overhead is greater and the benefit for IP and other protocols is limited, it is not clear which of the two standards is in wider use.

ALOHA is a term used to describe a group of protocols used for the radio data transmissions in computer networks.
This protocol enables the communication between several (more than two) stations, solving problems caused by the simultaneous transmission from many stations, by scheduling time slots to each station.
The name of the protocol comes from the Hawaiian word used for greetings; the protocol was first designed in Hawaii to ensure the communication between the islands of archipelagos.

There is a related protocol, called “slotted Aloha”, in which time is divided up into fixed length time slots, and stations are synchronized to these time slots.
Assuming that a large number of stations are indpendently trying to use the channel to send packetsÂ…what is the maximum average utilization of the channel that can be obtained with the slotted Aloha protocol.
This can be derived the same way we derived the utilization of regular Aloha, except that the probability that a given user’s packet collides with any other user’s packet is half as large (because the interval of vulnerability to a collision is only half as long].

A medium access protocol (MAC) is needed to regulate the transmissions of the hosts.
The efficiency of slotted ALOHA is the fraction of slots containing successful transmissions when there are many stations and each station has many packets to send.
The maximum efficiency of slotted ALOHA is 1/e =.37.

 A Power Dissipation Comparison of the R-TDMA and the Slotted-Aloha Wireless MAC Protocols - Linnenbank (ResearchIndex)
Abstract: In this paper two wireless multiple-access protocols are compared by their power dissipation for the uplink traffic of a wireless networks.
After briefly discussing the behaviour of the Slotted Aloha protocol (Abramson, 1985) and the R-TDMA protocol (Linnenbank, 1995), we estimate the energy that is dissipated by the protocols to trasmit a packet.
We will show that for general loads, the power dissipation of the R-TDMA protocol is far less than that of the Slotted Aloha protocol.

  Suppose that the ALOHA protocol is used to share a 56 kbps satellite channel.
The wireless LAN protocol must be designed to be power efficient.
However, if the majority of the traffic has a destination outside the LAN, then an Ethernet switch is more appropriate since frames can be relayed by the LAN switch without using bandwidth to the other stations.

 NetHistory
But the problem that was not foreseen was that the routing protocols and Internet topology were not well suited for handling an extremely large number of network IDs.
The lesson is that there is a complex interaction between routing protocols, topology, and scaling, and that determines what Internet routing structure will be necessary for the next ten to twenty years.
It seems likely that the Internet will continue to be the environment of choice for the deployment of new protocols and for the linking of diverse systems in the academic, government, and business sectors for the remainder of this decade and well into the next.

The assignment is to write software to simulate an Aloha hub and Aloha end-stations.
Note that the hub never needs to add a checksum to the packet -- if the packet is received with the correct checksum, it will go out with the correct checksum, except when the "transmission errors" corrupt one or more of the outgoing bytes.
The end stations are implementing a simple chat protocol.

 technical paper
The R-ALOHA protocol is distributed with a bandwidth reservation scheme, and UniLINK is centralized with a hybrid bandwidth allocation scheme.
It is based on modified TDM (time-division multiplexing) concepts and supports a dynamic mixture of fixed (isochronous), demand-based reservation (dedicated), and random access (contention) regions in a block sync interval or cycle, as shown in Fig.
Concerning the random access protocols under medium to heavy load, retransmitted traffic dominates and results in serious loss, which is not suitable for reliable and delay-sensitive transmission.

(MAC for short) protocol for multiaccess The importance of ALOHA is that it was the first protocol that solved the decentralized use of a common channel.
In pure ALOHA protocol we assume that a station can send a packet at any moment of continuous time and (successful) sending takes a unit of time.
The purpose of routing protocol is to determine, where the packet should be sent.
