The Failure of "The Failure of Poisson Modeling" for Internet Bandwidth Measurements
White Paper As an example, the paper shows that the end-to-end available bandwidth must have finite variance, outline a method for measuring it, and present some experimental data. There is a classic paper, which claims that many parameters of network traffic... [11 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing Distributed Inverted Files
White Paper Measuring load balance is avoided at the search engine side because this can lead to imprecise evaluation. The paper proposes a novel method to formulate the cost of query processing so that these algorithms can be used to schedule queries onto... [10 Jul 2008]
Determining Total Cost of Ownership for Data Center and Network Room Infrastructure
White Paper This paper describes an improved method for measuring Total Cost of Ownership of data center and network room physical infrastructure and relating these costs to the overall Information Technology infrastructure. [30 Jun 2008]
Photos: Shopping just got high-tech
Photo Although this device may look like a shower head, it is in fact an infrared scanner supplied by Irisys and Wincor Nixdorf for measuring footfall. Stores conventionally count customer numbers by using the 'broken beam' method but these vendors argue... [27 Jun 2008]
Determining Total Cost of Ownership for Data Center and Network Room Infrastructure
White Paper This paper describes an improved method for measuring Total Cost of Ownership of data center and network room physical infrastructure and relating these costs to the overall Information Technology infrastructure. [18 Apr 2008]
Measuring Employee Productivity Gains From e-Workforce Solutions
White Paper Intel developed a method to measure the business value of a program that included the deployment of a new version of general office productivity software. The calculated cost reductions associated with increased employee productivity and travel... [17 Apr 2008]
Finding and Fixing VoIP Problems
White Paper By measuring each call more accurately without having to generate costly test calls, system administrators now have a method to proactively understand the behavior of the their VoIP network, bring the problems to light, and fix them. [10 Apr 2008]
Measuring Up for Server Virtualization
White Paper Server virtualization is a technological method to consolidate servers. Virtualization is hot because there are very real and quantifiable dollar savings to be gained through proper server consolidation. [28 Mar 2008]
Measurement of Backscattering From RFID Tags
White Paper One presented a theoretical formula for RFID tag RCS and described an experimental method of measuring tag RCS using a network analyzer connected to an antenna in an anechoic chamber with the tag inside. [11 Feb 2008]
Inline Network Measurement: TCP Built-In Techniques for Inferring End-to-End Bandwidth
White Paper This paper introduces a method for measuring the available bandwidth in a network path between two end hosts using an active TCP connection. First it constructs a new measurement algorithm that uses a relatively small number of probe packets yet... [08 Jan 2008]
Inline Bandwidth Measurements: Implementation Difficulties and Their Solutions
White Paper Mechanisms using this method have the advantage of requiring no extra traffic for measuring available bandwidth, whereas other active measurement tools cannot fundamentally avoid adding probing traffic onto the network. [20 Dec 2007]
Service-oriented architecture
White Paper IBM's five-step method for measuring ROI makes it clear that the benefits of SOA outweigh the costs. If you're struggling to build a business case for service-oriented architecture (SOA), this IBM white paper can help. [05 Dec 2007]
Poor data hinders corporate social responsibility drive
News How can you measure your carbon footprint when you have no method of measuring the data? CIOs are failing to seize the opportunity to play a bigger role in corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives across their organisations, according to... [04 Apr 2007]
A New Framework for Marketing Accountability - Measuring the Impact of Multi-Channel Marketing and Advertising Efforts
White Paper To that end, it is argued that applying the well-proven principles of the scientific method, coupled with proper research design, to measure and diagnose the incremental effects of multi-dimensional campaigns is a tried and true process that will... [11 Aug 2006]
Adopting ITIL for IT Service Management
White Paper The bank knew it needed to bring in a partner who understood that a real plan with a clear method for measuring and reporting on improvements was essential to meeting their IT operational challenges. A Fortune 500 global financial institution with... [20 Mar 2006]
