A Case Study on Selecting AIDC Technologies by the U.S. Postal Service
White Paper A key element of the strategy is to closely monitor RFID technology so that the timing for adopting RFID can be determined ahead of time and proper planning can be accomplished in a timely fashion. ICF Consulting has helped the Postal Service... [23 Jul 2008]
A Network Management Architecture for Robust Packet Routing in Mesh Optical Access Networks
White Paper Reservation of bandwidth is performed in a centralized fashion at a (replicated) head end node, simplifying the implementation of complex sharing policies relative to implementation on a distributed set of routers. [18 Jul 2008]
Exploiting Internet Route Sharing for Large Scale Available Bandwidth Estimation
White Paper While researchers have developed coordinate-based models that allow any node to quickly and accurately estimate latency in a scalable fashion, no such models exist for available bandwidth. Recent progress in active measurement techniques has made... [11 Jul 2008]
Intelligent Routing and Bandwidth Allocation in Wireless Networks
