TraceMAC is a command-line Layer 2 traceroute for Cisco switches
...Is tested with Cisco switches:
Catalyst: 2960,3560,3750,4948,6509,9200,9300,9500 (All protocols)
Nexus: C9332C, 93180YC-EX (NX-OS SSH)
Express 500 (HTTP)
FYI: It uses Nbtscan.exe (NetBIOS) as a alternative method to discover the mac address of a host and now seems that it is considered a malware. Anyway it is just a simple network tool that can scan the network similar to NMAP or Angry IP Scanner, etc...
SOAPsv: is a program for detecting the structural variation
...Our approach accurately determines genotype and breakpoints relative to a reference genome based on de novo assembly of Illumina Genome Analyzer sequencing data. In this method, we examined only homozygous structural variations because detecting heterozygous structural variations requires assembly of haplotype sequences, which is not yet possible using existing assemblers.
basE91 is an advanced method for encoding binary data as ASCII characters. It is similar to UUencode or base64, but is more efficient. The overhead produced by basE91 depends on the input data. It amounts at most to 23% and can range down to 14%.
