My 15 minutes with Bill Gates
Comment I was sceptical about how far Microsoft and the PC standard could go. Think 64KB RAM, 10MB hard drives and monochrome monitors. The spreadsheet and word processor were the killer apps. Once upon a time, when Bill Gates still flew with the public... [11 Jul 2008]
A Min-Plus System Interpretation of Bandwidth Estimation
White Paper The paper shows that the problem as well as previously proposed solutions can be concisely described and derived using min-plus system theory, thus establishing the existence of a strong link between network calculus and network probing methods. [11 Jul 2008]
Surveillance Detection in High Bandwidth Environments
White Paper Both surveillance detection modules were executed over the audit data offline to generate surveillance detection alerts, though the systems can be run in real-time as well. This paper describes System Detection's surveillance detection techniques... [11 Jul 2008]
Comparison of Available Bandwidth Estimation Techniques in Packet-Switched Mobile Networks
White Paper The relative contribution of the transport network towards the per-user capacity in mobile telecommunication systems is becoming very important due to the ever increasing air-interface data rates. Thus, resource management procedures such as... [11 Jul 2008]
The Power of Indirection: Achieving Multicast Scalability by Mapping Groups to Regional Underlays
White Paper This paper proposes the QuickSilver Scalable Multicast protocol (QSM), a novel solution that delivers performance almost independent of the number of groups and introduces new mechanisms that scale well in the number of nodes with minimal... [11 Jul 2008]
Viatel Holding (Bermuda) Case Study: Acdoco
White Paper A significant challenge for Acdoco, as well as for other smaller manufacturers has been the capital expenditure necessary for compliance with the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) systems, such as AS2 standard, employed by many of Europe's larger... [11 Jul 2008]
Efficient High-Frequency Bandwidth Extension of Music and Speech
White Paper The algorithm uses a non-linearity to generate the extended octave, and can be applied to music as well as speech. This also enables application to fixed or mobile communication systems. The use of perceptually based (lossy) audio codecs, like MPEG... [11 Jul 2008]
Automotive Systems Integrator Finds AR410 Simpler & Less Expensive Than Cisco Solution
White Paper To provide connectivity for today's needs and to support the future growth of application and data delivery via VPN, ProQuest wanted a router that offered the flexibility and interface count to handle the requirements of most dealer networks today... [11 Jul 2008]
A Multipoint Communication Protocol Based on Ethernet for Analyzable Distributed Real-Time Applications
White Paper Because the protocol is based on fixed priorities, applications using it can be easily modeled using common techniques for fixed priority systems, and well-known schedulability analysis techniques can be applied. [10 Jul 2008]
An Intrusion Detection System Based in the Gathering of Linux Syslog Logs From Linux, Windows NT and Snort
White Paper There is the perimeter defences and gateways like firewalls and routers, the network security with Network Intrusion Detection Systems and host security with personal firewalls, Intrusion Detection Systems, System policies, Local accounts, etc. [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing in Peer-to-Peer Data Networks
White Paper Whilst this issue is well defined and basically solved for systems with relatively simple search paradigms, none of the existing solutions is appropriate or applicable for similarity-search networks. This paper suggests a new general solution of... [10 Jul 2008]
Microsoft Executive Circle Webcast: Mitigating Risk: Prepare Your Network for the Next Attack
White Paper While there is no substitute for patch management when it comes readying the systems and network against the next attack, there are strategies that can be implemented today to help mitigate the risk and impact of security attacks. [10 Jul 2008]
Usefulness of Virtual Private Networks for Mini-Grid Environments Demonstrated by Parallel Cellular Automata Simulation
White Paper Cellular Automata (CA) present an accepted and widely used model for the simulation of a broad range of systems. They are a good fit for execution on cluster computers, due to the fact that CA simulations are quite compute-intensive and well... [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing in the Presence of Random Node Failure and Recovery
White Paper A Load-Balancing (LB) policy for such systems should therefore be robust, in terms of workload re-allocation and effectiveness in task completion, with respect to the random absence and re-emergence of nodes as well as random delays in the... [10 Jul 2008]
Object-Based Adaptive Load Balancing for MPI Programs
White Paper Object-based parallel programming languages, such as Charm++ support efficient dynamic load balancing using object migration for irregular and dynamic applications, as well as to deal with external factors that cause load imbalance. [10 Jul 2008]
