The OSI reference model
@article{Day1983TheOR, title={The OSI reference model}, author={John Day and Hubert Zimmermann}, journal={Proceedings of the IEEE}, year={1983}, volume={71}, pages={1334-1340} }
The early successes of computer networks in the mid-1970's made it apparent that to utilize the full potential of computer networks, international standards would be required. [] Key Method The paper first describes the basic building blocks used to construct the network model. Then the particular seven-layer model used by OSI is briefly described, followed by a discussion of outstanding issues and future extensions for the model.

The OSI Reference Model is explained, which comprises of seven different layers, which is a way of sub-d dividing a communications system into smaller parts called layers.
A Performance Model of the OSI Communication Architecture
- Computer ScienceIEEE Trans. Commun.
- 1986
The analytical model proposed in this paper aims at predicting the performance of software implementations which would be built according to the OSI basic reference model, which is basically a closed multiclass multichain queueing network with a processor-sharing center modeling process contention at the processor and a delay center modeling times spent waiting for responses from the corresponding peer processes.
