Problem statement :    understand protocols

                       understand tcp/ip and OSI

                       understand com/dcom/corba interfaces

                       understand network-packet-data-gram analyzers
                       understand com/dom/corba interfaces explorer (eg vb f2 keypress)

                       understand perl LWP and various other wrapper modules

Opportunity a): deriving from the above as envisaged in the problem statement

              a use-case modelled protocol and stack analyzers that can be handy for
              diagnizing and constitute the vital toolkit of any engineer

              a)scsi ...protocol and data ...eg: had a ibm LTO 38XX series tape drive ...door locked ?? ,
                                                 can scsi hardware errors be soft-reset or cleared ...inspecific above situation

              b)usb ...protocol and data analyzer

              c)IDE

              d)GPRS

              f)iscsi

                ....similarly various use-case modelled tools fitting to various use-case modelled scenarios
                and protocols.


Opportunity b): ...further to as envisaged in ...."opportunity_extensions_email_protocols.txt"

                understanding and interpreting from how A-GPS ...and pre-processed gps ...work

                further to some of the works undertaken by this individual ....at fapco.net.

                understanding and interpreting ....how a stock market feed ....price-discovery ...is cached and potentially 
                replayed ??

                ....use-case ...applied scenarios ....eg: e-mail / fax/...solutions ...ideally all services that work on
                asychronous ...communications.


                ....viz. deriving from fundamentals of DMZ ...how bit-defender or bit based packet/protocol analyzers work

                ....potential-set-of-problem-statements-&-solutions.


Opportunity c): ability to synchronously record ...the data/feed ...deriving form options  a) and b)

                understanding and interpreting from communication protocols ...eg: tcp/ip ...network 

                ....potential scope ...ability to record such ...data-gram (incomming/outgoing) flow onto a tape/disk,
                for instance at iscsi/giga-bit-ethernet... routers....ability to keep-tab at organization level.

                also potentially redefining the scope and usage of back-ups ...deriving from opportunity b).
