Well I used to have interest on these two protocols below:
You can have a glance on X500 (its an old protocol) and its son LDAP (light Weight
Directory Access Protocol). They are doing some good stuff about the LDAP at UMICH
(University of Michigan).
These two protocols a related with directory services and administration.

Well it is difficult to anwser because stuff like this (technology) are going fast. I
heard about these architecture: Man, Lan, Wan and SAN. I hope the last one is the
right name. It talks about network and databases and configuration.

You know there already an architecture and this change will go slowly.
You can look at IPV6 but there is good stuff too about voice over IP.

A web site that purhaps can help you to start your research:
http://www.protocols.com/
it provide a good openview of all the protocols that are on the vogue nowadays.
Usually I do my search with either www.svn.net/search or www.zworks.com purhaps this
can help you to improve in your PhD studies.
