RSS computing modelMSDN Webcast: Mobile Device Smart Clients (Level 200)
White Paper The value of smart clients, when compared to Web-based programming models, is more apparent on devices than on other computing form factors. In this webcast, the presenter explores the technical advantages that the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework... [11 Aug 2008]
Quocirca's Straight Talking: Secure remote access closes in
Comment By the 1990s, the client-server computing model came into use, providing a convenient way of interconnecting applications distributed across different locations. This distributed computing paradigm allows for a highly mobile workforce, which has... [25 Jul 2008]
A QoS-Aware Selection Model for Semantic Web Services
White Paper Automating Service Oriented Architectures by augmenting them with semantics will form the basis of the next generation of computing. Selection of service still is an important challenge, especially, when a set of services fulfilling user's... [18 Jul 2008]
Google open sources data-moving tool
News Google has open sourced an internal development tool called 'Protocol Buffers', a data description language that forms a basic part of the operation of the company's vast computing cluster. By sticking to a simple lists-and-records model that... [11 Jul 2008]
Back to the Future: Virtualization Pushes Thin Client Computing Into the Enterprise Mainstream
White Paper Finally, emerging technologies, such as virtualization, are enabling thin clients to move into the mainstream and businesses to reap the broad range of benefits which are associated with the thin client and server-based computing model. [11 Jul 2008]
Automatic Configuration of Services for Security, Bandwidth, Throughput, and Availability
White Paper This paper presents a precise model of a service-oriented computing system that allows many important configuration properties to be defined and optimized for, including throughput, network bandwidth, security and availability. [11 Jul 2008]
Algorithms for Provisioning Virtual Private Networks in the Hose Model
White Paper The paper shows that even for the simple scenario in which network links are assumed to have infinite capacity, the general problem of computing the optimal VPN tree is NP-hard. The recently proposed hose model for VPNs allows for greater... [11 Jul 2008]
Scalable VPN Routing Via Relaying
White Paper Unfortunately this direct reachability model makes the service provider's routing tables grow very large as the number of VPNs and the number of routes per customer increase. Enterprise customers are increasingly adopting MPLS (Multiprotocol Label... [11 Jul 2008]
Full System Energy Estimation for Sensor Network Gateways
White Paper This paper presents a new energy estimation model for sensor network intermediate gateway nodes (i.e. This model is constructed using empirical data that is collected via hardware performance monitors in the device and novel software performance... [11 Jul 2008]
Performance Modeling of Network Coding in Epidemic Routing
White Paper With extensive simulations, the paper show that this model successfully characterizes these two protocols and demonstrates the superiority of network coding in opportunistic networks when bandwidth and node buffers are limited. [11 Jul 2008]
The Cisco Intrusion Detection System Delivers Robust Security for Mission Critical eBusiness
White Paper In 2002 Ipera Information Technology was established with the merger of Hunter Digital and Ipera Network Computing. Ipera's major clients wanted to progress their business model to incorporate web-based e-commerce. [10 Jul 2008]
Workload Modeling for Load Balancing in Distributed DB/DC Transaction Processing
White Paper Distributed transaction processing is still one of the most complex problems in contemporary computing. This paper discuss the characteristic features of high performance transaction processing and it demonstrate, how the complexity of load... [10 Jul 2008]
Hierarchical Partitioning and Dynamic Load Balancing for Scientific Computation
White Paper Cluster and grid computing has made hierarchical and heterogeneous computing systems increasingly common as target environments for large-scale scientific computation. For maximum efficiency, software must adapt to the computing environment. [10 Jul 2008]
The Effect of Time Delays on the Stability of Load Balancing Algorithms for Parallel Computations
White Paper In particular, simulations of the models are compared with an experimental implementation of the load balancing algorithm on a distributed computing network. A deterministic dynamic nonlinear time-delay system is developed to model load balancing... [10 Jul 2008]
Tability of Load Balancing Algorithms in Dynamic Adversarial Systems
White Paper In a distributed network of computing hosts, the performance of the system can depend crucially on dividing up work effectively across the participating nodes. A basic model of load balancing is considered in a distributed network, which has formed... [10 Jul 2008]
