	Enchanted Rendezvous
		Rendezvous had to be a central element of all future flight endeavors—whatever they might be.
		To visualize the problem, Houbolt built a gadget with a globe for the Earth and a small ball on the end of a short piece of coat hanger, all connected to a variable-ratio gearbox.
		He insisted that his committee be allowed to study rendezvous "in the broadest terms" possible because, as he presciently argued, the technique was bound to play a major role in almost any advanced space mission NASA might initiate.

	The Rendezvous Problem (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		This is roughly the problem you face if you go to a shopping mall with a friend, become separated, and then wonder how to find your friend in minimal time, knowing that he may also be hunting for you.
		The problem arose through modelling issues that arise in synchonizing or de-sychonizing parallel processors performing a calculation.
		The rules of this problem are that the algorithm is not allowed to break symmetry by referring to some external information, such as saying `the older person should do X, while the younger does Y.' (The HHGTTG cannot rely on readers knowing such facts about one another.

	Synchronization of Java Threads Using Rendezvous (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Rendezvous, a mechanism for imposing an ordering on events in an arbitrary number of concurrent threads, was developed for Java.
		The rendezvous is shown to be useful in synchronous applications, where ordering of certain events between threads is necessary to ensure determinism.
		In summary, a rendezvous mechanism in Java was found to be quite valuable for use in a wide variety of applications, where it is necessary to synchronize events in multiple threads to ensure determinacy.

		Rendezvousing: The problem of interest here is concerned with a system consisting of a group of n mobile autonomous agents which can all move in the plane.
		The multi-agent rendezvous problem [2] is to devise "local" control strategies, one for each agent, which without any active communication between agents, cause all members of the group to eventually rendezvous at single unspecified location.
		The closing ranks problem for a given rigid formation which has lost a single agent, is to find new links between some agent pairs which, if maintained cause the resulting formation to again be rigid.

		So, Powerbooks should be set up to use their "rendezvous" name as their server in the license.dat file for license manager.
		Rendezvous is the code name for Apple's new networking technology that uses standard network protocols to automatically discover and connect devices over any IP network.
		Since it is built into the OS, the Rendezvous name is part of the NetInfo database that is used by the system to manage user accounts, groups, passwords, etc., and therefore it is always a recognized "server" name for Matlab license manager.

		As mentioned before, the rendezvous procedure encompasses all required steps for two nodes to obtain enough information about the other peer to be able to address packets to it.
		One drawback of rendezvous servers is that they may introduce triangle routing: packets no longer follow the direct path between two peers, but instead flow through the rendezvous server.

		The multi-agent rendezvous problem is to devise local control strategies, one for each agent, which without any active communication between agents, cause all members of the group to eventually rendezvous at single unspecified location.
		In this paper, we consider the problem of active sensing using mobile sensor nodes that are jointly estimating the state of a dynamic target as a sensor network.
		One of the most important problems arising from this framework is the computation of the search number, i.e., the smallest number of pursuers necessary to capture a single evader in a finite time, regardless of the escaping policy adopted by the evader.

	ONDotnet.com -- Client/Server Rendezvous on the LAN
		This is known as the "rendezvous" problem--how services advertise their presence, and how clients discover them--and it's nearly as old as the notion of client-server architecture itself.
		One problem with directory-based rendezvous technologies (those targeted toward LAN-scale applications) is that they either require your customers to purchase and install special directory software, or greatly complicate the installation of your app, or both.
		In a broadcast-based rendezvous architecture, callers will simply connect to the hostname specified in the response (which is not trustworthy at all--the best you can do is display a list of responding server names to your user, and let them absent-mindedly select one).

		There is a problem in the second step, however, if dynamic tunneling (or translation) is used; there must be some means for a system on one side of an IPv4-only domain to determine the ingress and egress gateways between which to tunnel.
		The problems those sections raise result from the complexities in the network related to the transition strategies in use, which from the perspective of the argument in [Saltzer] are unnecessary complexities that result in a failure of the network to deliver connectivity.
		The problems that extra complexity causes are acceptable only because connectivity is in fact guaranteed in another way.

	relativistic signal rendezvous problem (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		If we presume (as the earthlings in the problem might) that the earth is motionless and the spacecraft is receding, the problem is simple.
		If we presume (as the astronauts might) that the spaceship is motionless, and the earth is receding, the problem is a bit more complicated because we have to account for earth being in motion while the signal travels, but it's not too bad.
		This is because the statement in the problem as posed that the signal is sent when the earth clock reads 10 is giving a time to an event occuring at a distance.

		Rendezvous with a moving object involves the extra problem of matching the spaceship's time of flight with that of the destination planet.
		The delta-vee for arrival is found by subtracting the HEC velocity vector in the transfer orbit at arrival from the velocity of the rendezvous object at the time of arrival.
		The components of the rendezvous velocity vector can be calculated from the orbital elements of the destination planet and the mean anomaly for the destination planet (in its own orbit) at the time of arrival.

		Gemini 6 with Wally Schirra and Tom Stafford was to launch on October 26, 1965, but their Agena rendezvous vehicle, the primary reason for the mission, failed to achieve orbit.
		Because the mission involved rendezvous, the mission was changed to rendezvous with Gemini 7, launched on December 4, 1965.
		Gemini 12 launched on November 11, 1966 and rendezvoused with the Agena 3 hours and 45 minutes into the mission; this is remarkable considering the fact that radar reception with the Agena was so bad after liftoff that the rendezvous was done without a computer.

		The grapple end of the tether is accelerated upward by the tension in the tether (about 1.1 Gs) while gravity is pulling the rocket back to Earth (1 G).
		For the rendezvous to work, the rocket has to get to the right place at the right time with very little room for error.
		To do this it needs to know exactly where the tether is and where the rocket is. A system using the GPS satellites has been shown to have 6.5 meter accuracy during the ballistic phase of a suborbital rocket flight.

	Atlas: Exploration a two sided rendezvous search problem using genetic algorithms. by Tracy Truong
		A lost walker being searched for by a helicopter is a two sided search problem when the walker (the target) uses information about the location of the helicopter to modify their behaviour.
		This problem has been explored for a limited set of NATO search paths being scan search, expanding square and decreasing square by Thomas et al.
		This paper uses a genetic algorithm to search over the space of all possible search paths to find ones which are optimal or near optimal for a range of target speeds and search region sizes.

	Layered Transmission and Caching for the Multicast Session Directory Service
		One solution to this problem is proxy-based transcoding, where data streams are individually transformed according to the specification of each requesting receiver [7].
		Although the active networks research community aims to solve this problem by offering a common platform for such services as part of the basic network service model [28], numerous research problems must be addressed before such an infrastructure is widely deployed.
		To solve these problems, we propose an architecture in which the session originator allocates and announces addresses within its local scope and across the wide area over global scope, and session announcement ``agents'' in turn allocate and announce local addresses in remote regions.

		In this talk, two types of emergent behaviors of a large group of autonomous agents will be described, namely, the Multi-agent Flocking Problem and the Multi-agent Rendezvous Problem.
		In both problems, provably correct distributed local rules are proposed.
		In the Flocking problem the convergence of the group heading was proved using results in the convergence of matrix products and graph theory; while in the Rendezvous problem the convergence to a common unspecified location in was proved using the combination of convex analysis and standard Lyapunov function approach.
