White Paper Optical-label switching offers seamless integration of data and optical networking while supporting circuit, burst, and packet switching using the optical-labels. The dynamic and agile characteristics of optical-label switching indicate its support... [05 Jul 2008]
Investigation of Ethernet Switches Behavior in Presence of Contending Flows at Very High-Speed
White Paper Several conditions in which scheduling mechanisms introduce heavy unfair bandwidth sharing and loss burst which impact TCP performance are shown. This paper examines the interactions between high speed Ethernet switches and TCP in high bandwidth... [05 Jul 2008]
Role of Fault Slip on Mechanisms of Rock Burst Damage
White Paper Various methods of monitoring slip movements on bedding planes, as well as examination of rock burst damage in stopes, suggest that many rock bursts in the Lucky Friday Mine are closely associated with these movements. [03 Jul 2008]
Estimation of Bluetooth TCP Performance With Adaptive Packet Type in the Burst Error Model
White Paper In this paper, the performance of APT in a Burst Error Model (BEM) is assessed. In a radio network, a packet loss can be due to interference from other electromagnetic wave having the same frequency. In an 802.11 network, for instance, wireless... [03 Jul 2008]
Open Source: An Introduction to the New Programming Paradigm
White Paper Open source burst upon the software development scene as the new paradigm of faster turnaround and more reliable software. With the open source development model, a computer program’s source code is given away freely along with the program itself. [03 Jul 2008]
Experience with ATM Switch Performance Testing
White Paper In particular, in this paper, we present definitions, methodologies, and measured results for frame latency, throughput, and maximum frame burst size (MFBS). For users to be able to compare performance of different switches, it is important to have... [03 Jul 2008]
Committed Access Rate
White Paper CAR achieves this control through rate limiting (with burst capabilities) and also classifies and marks packets using IP Precedence and quality-of-service (QoS) group settings. Committed access rate (CAR) is a bandwidth management tool for... [03 Jul 2008]
Adaptive Management of Bluetooth Slave/Slave Bridge
White Paper It is assumed that both piconets operate under exhaustive scheduling policy, that slaves generate packet bursts, that burst arrivals follow Poisson distribution, and that the size of packet bursts follows geometric distribution. [03 Jul 2008]
Generating Bluetooth RF Test Signals With SMIQ Signal Generator
White Paper This paper includes files containing modulation data for various payload patterns and burst lengths. With SMIQ Signal Generator you can generate the most important Bluetooth RF test signals fast and conveniently. [03 Jul 2008]
TCP HACK: TCP Header Checksum Option to Improve Performance over Lossy Links
White Paper Our results have shown that HACK performs substantially better than both SACK and NewReno in cases where burst corruptions are frequent. In recent years, wireless networks have become increasingly common and an increasing number of devices are... [03 Jul 2008]
Measuring the Power of a Digital Signal
White Paper For the bursty reverse path signals, digital levels can be determined by using the zero span mode, and video triggering, with a resolution bandwidth slightly greater than the burst signal. Digital signals have very different spectral... [03 Jul 2008]
Efficient Admission Control for EDF Schedulers
White Paper In this paper we present algorithms for flow admission control at an EDF link scheduler when the flows are characterized by peak rate, average rate and burst size. We show that the algorithms have very low computational complexity and are easily... [03 Jul 2008]
United States Immigration Law in a World of Terror
White Paper The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 have spurred a burst of interest in United States immigration laws. Immediately after the attacks, the news media filled with reports that the terrorists had entered the United States on student visas... [10 Apr 2008]
