RSS wide area networkFuture Wide Area Wireless White Paper
White Paper GSM to all intents and purposes is an ISDN based standard with 12.2 kbps voice channels sitting within 16 k/bit channels multiplexing into 144 k/bit channels in the ISDN core network. Release 99 WCDMA was originally an ATM based standard with a... [03 Jul 2008]
Enterprise Branch Wide Area Application Services Design Guide (Version 1.1)
White Paper A branch infrastructure needs to be designed as a whole to capitalize on network resource features. WAAS is one of the key Cisco application networking service components for the improvement of application and WAN optimization solutions. [03 Apr 2008]
An Empirical Evaluation of Wide-Area Internet Bottlenecks
White Paper Conventional wisdom has been that the performance limitations in the current Internet lie at the edges of the network - i.e.last mile connectivity to users, or access links of stub ASes. As these links are upgraded, however, it is important to... [20 Oct 2007]
Flow Aggregation for Enhanced TCP Over Wide-Area Wireless
White Paper This paper examines the performance of TCP and HTTP over GPRS, and shows how certain network characteristics interact badly with TCP to yield problems such as link under-utilization for short-lived flows, excess queuing for long-lived flows, ACK... [25 Jun 2004]
Making Wide-Area, Multi-Site MPI Feasible Using Xen VM
White Paper Although multi-site MPI execution has been criticized in the past as being "Impractical" due to limitations in network latency and bandwidth, the authors believe many of the obstacles can be overcome by various means for wider classes of... [01 Apr 2007]
LABAR: Location Area Based Ad Hoc Routing for GPS-Scarce Wide-Area Ad Hoc Networks
White Paper The most challenging problem in conjunction with ad hoc networks is routing, i.e.the procedure in charge of determining the trajectory of packets traveling over the network. Wireless ad hoc networks are becoming increasingly important in the world. [01 Aug 2007]
HAWAII: A Domain-Based Approach for Supporting Mobility in Wide-Area Wireless Networks
White Paper Also, mobile hosts retain their network address while moving within the domain, simplifying QoS support. Mobile-IP is the current standard for supporting macro-mobility of mobile hosts. However, in the case of micro-mobility support, there are... [31 Aug 2007]

Performance of an Experimental 384 kb/s 1900 MHz OFDM Radio Link in a Wide-Area High-Mobility Environment
White Paper Practical RF impairments and realistic algorithms have been studied to address the emerging need for data network access from high mobility platforms at wired LAN-like data rates. The first phase of an experimental investigation into future... [01 Nov 2004]
Datacryptor 2000 Key Management: Secure and Automated Encryption for Wide Area Networks (WANS)
White Paper Encryption is the security technology that protects the privacy of information sent over a network. Encryption changes a data stream of bits from information to something that appears random. Anyone who intercepts the encrypted data gets a data... [24 Feb 2004]
Secure Wireless Computing: Best Practices for Managing Security in Wide-Area Wireless Networks
White Paper But wireless attacks are more insidious and can corrupt network quickly and quietly - before one have time to take action. In traditional LAN-based computing, security breaches are quickly detected and usually preventable with industry standard... [24 Feb 2004]
Multihop Sensor Network Design for Wide-Band Communications
