RSS slotThe Problem of Upstream Traffic Synchronization in Passive Optical Networks
White Paper Because distance from central office to every network unit is different, if every unit will transmit in its own time slot, due to differences in propagation delays, data will collide in the point where fibers from different network units join... [18 Jul 2008]
Achieving QoS for IEEE 802.16 in Mesh Mode
White Paper This paper proposes a slot allocation algorithm based on priority, which is to achieve QoS on MAC layer. The MAC protocol of IEEE 802.16 standard specifies scheduling mechanisms about mesh mode in detail, while its channel resource allocation and... [17 Jul 2008]
Bandwidth Enhancement of Strip-Loaded Radial-Line Slot Array Antenna by the Inclusion of Canceling Slots
White Paper This paper proposes a new design of linearly polarized radial-line slot-array antennas (LP-RLSA) which uses loading strips and cancelling slots. The combination of both techniques provides wider impedance bandwidth with high radiation efficiencies. [11 Jul 2008]
A Class-Based Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation Scheme for EPONs
White Paper An available solution is to assign a variable-sized time slot to each ONU. In an Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON), all Optical Network Units (ONUs) share one uplink channel to transmit multiple traffic. [11 Jul 2008]
Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series High-Availability Uplinks
White Paper Twin gigabit converter modules provide 2 Gigabit Ethernet (Small Form-Factor Pluggable [SFP]) uplinks per X2 optic slot, allowing flexibility for up to 4 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks. The new Supervisor Engine 6-E introduced with the Cisco Catalyst... [02 Jul 2008]
Performing Arts Center Stages Innovative Technology for the Future
White Paper Consequently, at the core of the network is 10-Gigabit fiber connecting two physically secured data centers, one built on a 14-slot 3Com Switch 8814 chassis and the other on a 10-slot 3Com Switch 8810 chassis. [31 May 2008]
The Waiting Time Distribution for a TDMA Model With a Finite Buffer
White Paper On successive intervals of length equal to the duration of a slot, the density is expressed as (infinite) linear combinations of beta densities with positive coefficients. This paper obtains detailed analytic formulas for the density and... [10 Apr 2008]
Idtechex Case Study: Max-Planck Institute, Library Assets, Germany
White Paper In automatic book return, the book is identified by a RFID reader unit as it is inserted into the return slot, and then placed into a bin. The Mastics-Moriches Community Library in the state of New York carried out a time and cost analysis to... [10 Apr 2008]
'iPhone effect' ripples through smart phone market
News The company predicts that by 2011, more than half of all mobile phones could be considered music phones as they will feature music codec functionality (such as MP3 or AAC) and a memory slot which allows users to carry a personal music library. [25 Mar 2008]
How Cisco IT Uses Analysis Module to Gather Information on Host, Network, and Application Traffic
White Paper The NAM is an integrated traffic monitoring service module that occupies a single slot in the chassis of the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switch. The Cisco team needed a solution that could provide more than packet capture. [04 Mar 2008]
Peter Cochrane's Blog: Getting thinner fast
Comment First it was the floppy drive, then the IrDA port, quickly followed by PCMCIA slot. Written on the London-Ipswich train and sent via a wi-fi signal picked up at the bottom of a field in a remote part of Suffolk, UK. [28 Jan 2008]
HP Integrity BL860c Server Blade Linux Installation White Paper: Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
White Paper The BL860c server blade is a full-height server blade designed for the standard BladeSystem c-Class enclosure and slides into any open slot in the enclosure. Once added to the enclosure, the server blade should go to standby power. [08 Jan 2008]
TCP Synchronisation Effect in TCP New Reno and TCP Hybla
White Paper The synchronisation effect is caused by the relation between the round trip time (RTT) of packets of certain flows and the moment when a new slot comes available at a saturated DropTail queue (from which multiple flows make use of). [08 Jan 2008]
High Speed Switch Scheduling for Local Area Networks
White Paper The key to the switch's operation is a technique called parallel iterative matching, which can quickly identify a set of conflict-free cells for transmission in a time slot. Current technology trends make it possible to build communication networks... [05 Dec 2007]
Facebook founder tops Agenda Setters list
News Clearly, the technology industry has undergone a massive transformation since then, as a 23-year-old has taken the top slot as the CEO of one of the largest social networks in the world. Mark Zuckerberg, the 23-year-old founder and CEO of social... [17 Oct 2007]
