The Handheld Classroom: Educational Implications of Mobile Computing
White Paper This paper explored the use of handheld computers in a variety of educational contexts. Advances in handheld computing technology have meant that Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) are no longer simply electronic replacements for paper diaries... [23 Jul 2008]
Federated Grid Clusters Using Service Address Routed Optical Networks
White Paper Clusters of computers have emerged as cost-effective parallel and/or distributed computing systems for computationally intensive tasks. Normally, clusters are composed of high performance computational nodes linked together by low-latency/high... [18 Jul 2008]
School Network Upgrade Ensures Flexibility & Security Using Allied Telesis Switching Technology
White Paper They wanted to provide a secure platform for supporting pupil's own computers alongside (but secure from) the core school network. St. Swithun's is one of England's most popular and successful independent schools with a reputation for a very high... [18 Jul 2008]
Virtualization in Education
White Paper Availability of computers in classrooms, offices, labs, dorm rooms, and throughout campus is expected. When it comes to desktop computing in Education, flexibility is key. Students, faculty and staff want to be able to access their own data... [14 Jul 2008]
Columbitech Mobile VPN Helps U.S. Military Retailer NEXCOM Reach PCI Compliance
White Paper NEXCOM was using Symbol PDT 6846 legacy mobile computers in its stores and distribution centers. The DOS-based mobile computers used WEP, which in recent years has shown itself to be a weak security protocol. [11 Jul 2008]
Virtual Local Area Networks
White Paper A Local Area Network (LAN) was originally defined as a network of computers located within the same area. Today, Local Area Networks are defined as a single broadcast domain. This means that if a user broadcasts information on his/her LAN, the... [11 Jul 2008]
Y-Means: A Clustering Method for Intrusion Detection
White Paper As the Internet spreads to each corner of the world, computers are exposed to miscellaneous intrusions from the World Wide Web. An effective intrusion detection systems is needed to protect the computers from these unauthorized or malicious actions. [10 Jul 2008]
Usefulness of Virtual Private Networks for Mini-Grid Environments Demonstrated by Parallel Cellular Automata Simulation
White Paper They are a good fit for execution on cluster computers, due to the fact that CA simulations are quite compute-intensive and well parallelizable. This paper discusses the coupling of several cluster computers using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to... [10 Jul 2008]
Certain Performance Aspects of Optimal Load Balancing in Distributed Computer Systems
White Paper A distributed computer system is considered to be a collection of autonomous computers (nodes) located at possibly different sites and connected by a communication network. Through the communication network, resources of the system can be shared by... [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing FTP Servers Through LocalDirector Without the Use of the Proxy FTP Service
White Paper Load balancing is a technique to spread work between two or more computers, network links, CPUs, hard drives, or other resources, in order to get optimal resource utilization, throughput, or response time. [10 Jul 2008]
Operating System Multilevel Load Balancing
White Paper This paper describes an algorithm that allows Linux to per-form multilevel load balancing in NUMA computers. The Linux scheduler implements a load balancing algorithm that uses structures called sched domains to build a hierarchy that represents... [10 Jul 2008]
Static Load Balancing for CFD Simulations on a Network of Workstations
White Paper In distributed simulations, the delivered performance of networks of heterogeneous computers degrades severely if the computations are not load balanced. This paper considers the distributed simulation of TURNS (Transonic Unsteady Rotor Navier... [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing in Distributed Systems: An Approach Using Cooperative Games
White Paper This paper formulates the static load balancing problem in single class job distributed systems as a cooperative game among computers. It is shown that the Nash Bargaining Solution (NBS) provides a Pareto optimal allocation which is also fair to... [10 Jul 2008]
Neural Networks in Intrusion Detection Systems
White Paper Security of an information system is its very important property, especially today, when computers are interconnected via internet. Because no system can be absolutely secure, the timely and accurate detection of intrusions is necessary. [10 Jul 2008]
Construction Company Reduces Construction Delays by 50 Percent With Portal Solution
White Paper However, with information stored locally on desktop computers or in filing cabinets, and printed procedure manuals updated monthly, Colpatria had no efficient way to share and manage the information necessary to achieve ISO certification. [10 Jul 2008]
