News A Transport for London (TfL) spokesperson said the problem is believed to be the result of incorrect data tables being sent out by the Oyster card contractor, Transys. London's Oyster travel smart card system has failed for the second time in a... [25 Jul 2008]
Photos: Motor Show showcases the future of car tech
Photo UK environment minister, Phil Woolas, has a go on a simulator that tests how efficient your driving is here at the Department for Transport's Greener Driving Pavilion at the show. The CCR is capable of 242mph and can reach 60mph in just 3.2 seconds. [25 Jul 2008]
Certificates and SSL Usage in OVO/UNIX
White Paper The new HP OpenView HTTPS communication infrastructure between OVO management servers and their HTTPS managed nodes is an HTTP protocol based on Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) connections. [25 Jul 2008]
On the Capacity of Optical Networks: A Framework for Comparing Different Transport Architectures
White Paper This paper compares three optical transport network architectures: Optical Packet Switching (OPS), Optical Flow Switching (OFS), and Optical Burst Switching (OBS). It characterizes the capacity regions of the transport architectures, and show that... [18 Jul 2008]
Effectiveness of Shared Risk Link Group Auto-Discovery in Optical Networks
White Paper Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs), introduced in, provide inputs necessary to plan for reliability in transport networks. This paper evaluates location-based methods for the auto-discovery of SRLGs, guided by the topology and design of AT&T's next... [18 Jul 2008]
Juniper EX-Series Ethernet Switches: QoS-Enabling the Enterprise - Assuring End-to-End Application Performance
White Paper The enterprise network is no longer a data-only transport. It has evolved into a multi-services infrastructure carrying business-critical applications, voice and video streams, and traffic from building automation and other control systems. [18 Jul 2008]
Light Trails: A Sub-Wavelength Solution for Optical Networking
White Paper All-optical networks are able to transport data from source to destination entirely in the optical domain. This is a departure from current optical networks that rely on Optical-Electrical-Optical (OEO) conversion at each intermediate connection... [18 Jul 2008]
Network Architecture to Support QoS in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
White Paper The QoS architecture includes a QoS transport layer, QoS routing, queue management and a priority MAC protocol. This paper presents a Quality of Service (QoS) architecture for supporting real-time data transmission in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs). [18 Jul 2008]
A Comparison Between IPsec and Multiprotocol Label Switching Virtual Private Networks
White Paper The IP-based Virtual Private Network (VPN) is rapidly becoming the foundation for the delivery of New World services, and many service providers are offering value-added applications on top of their VPN transport networks. [18 Jul 2008]
Building Trusted VPNs With Multi-VRF
White Paper Driving this need has been the requirement for secure transport of sensitive information, controlling information access to those who need it, etc. Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have been a key application in networking for a long time. [18 Jul 2008]
Dynamic VPNs Achieving Scalable, Secure Site-to-Site Connectivity
White Paper These solutions lower the capital outlay and ongoing costs of legacy solutions by leveraging the cost-effective and ubiquitous connectivity of the Internet to transport private data. The latest evolution in solutions for private networks is IPSec... [18 Jul 2008]
Demo of Triple Play Services With QoS in a Broadband Access Residential Gateway
White Paper This scenario could be considered as the aim of the Next Generation Networks (NGN) where a unified network is used to transport all possible kind of traffic towards a broadband Ethernet access multi-provider network. [18 Jul 2008]
A Framework for Network Media Optimization in Multihomed QoS Networks
White Paper In order to provide mobile hosts with such a function, the paper proposes an association layer, which is inserted between the transport and network layers. Future pervasive networks will be constructed by various access networks, which are managed... [18 Jul 2008]
QoS Perspective for Wireless Scenarios
White Paper This paper analyze QoS parameters from the network perspective looking on three different TCP/IP layers: Transport Layer (TCP and UDP), Network Layer (DSDV, DSR and AODV), and Medium Access Control Layer (DCF and EDCF). [18 Jul 2008]
ENIGMA: A Testbed for MPLS and QoS Integration on IP Networks
White Paper ENIGMA is a network configuration and management environment that provides end to end QoS (quality of service) across an MPLS Transport network for UMTS services. As a result, a new concept of transport network is defined, which links the new... [17 Jul 2008]
