whitepaper AppLabs Case Study: Polycom2008-09-01 AppLabs
  Polycom began certifying their SpectraLink Wireless Telephones three and a half years ago in a move to ensure they functioned well with industry-leading, enterprise-grade Wi-Fi access points. After a year of supporting the program in-house, Polycom faced resourcing issues due to the demand for the service from the burgeoning Wi-Fi market, and with increasing pressure to meet industry standards they needed a solution that would not only solve the immediate demand, but also provide added value for their partners. As a result of increasing business pressure, Polycom acknowledged that the delivery of the VIEW Certification Program needed to change. AppLabs were selected due to their breadth of testing experience, strong reputation in certification programs and their flexible attitude towards working in partnership with Polycom.

whitepaper How to Replicate the Fire: HA for Netfilter Based Firewalls2008-08-22 Astaro AG
  With traditional, stateless firewalling (such as ipfwadm, ipchains) there is no need for special High Availability (HA) support in the firewalling subsystem. As long as all packet filtering rules and routing table entries are configured in exactly the same way, one can use any available tool for IP-Address takeover to accomplish the goal of failing over from one node to the other. With Linux 2.4.x netfilter/iptables, the Linux firewalling code moves beyond traditional packet filtering. Netfilter provides a modular connection tracking susbsystem which can be employed for stateful firewalling.

whitepaper WiMAX Forum White Paper - Spectrum Opportunities Below 1 GHz2008-08-01 WiMAX Forum
  This paper provides an analysis of spectrum opportunities for WiMAX technologies in bands below 1 GHz. It describes the recent regulatory developments in the bands below 1 GHz, focusing especially on the upper part of Ultra High Frequency (UHF) 470-862 MHz band, i.e. in the sub-band 698-862 MHz which may become available to Mobile Service applications in the next years, typically between 2008-2012.

whitepaper An Experimental Evaluation of DoS Attack and Its Impact on Throughput of IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networks2008-08-01 Universiti Putra Malaysia
  Off late, Wireless LAN (WLAN) has gained popularity in a variety of locations. This has lead to development of high level security protocols for WLAN. The newest protocol IEEE 802.11i ratified to provide strong data encryption but it cannot prevent Denial of Service (DoS) attacks on WLAN. This paper in a testbed, conducts an experimental framework to implement and quantify common types of DoS attacks against WLAN throughput. The results of implementation of the experiments shows that how easily DoS attacks can be performed on WLAN which causes to reduce throughput of communication considerably to make inaccessible wireless connection for its authorized members.

whitepaper WiMAX/Wi-Fi Coexistence in the 3.65GHz Band - Standardization and Simulation2008-07-14
  Opening of the 3.65-3.7GHz band in the US has created opportunities to standardize solutions for license-exempt operation of WiMAX systems. This is being realized through the IEEE P802.16h license-exempt amendment. This paper presents a summary of the regulatory requirements of the band, and summarizes efforts within IEEE License-Exempt Task Group in providing a solution for coexistence with 802.11 systems (based on the 802.11y amendment). Some of the technical proposals from the 802.16h draft amendment are presented together with simulation scenarios and accompanying results. Simulation activity is motivated by work within the IEEE 802.19 Coexistence Technical Advisory Group considering WiMAX/Wi-Fi coexistence.

whitepaper Interactive Learning 2.0: How Wi-Fi Enhances Learning and Improves Student/Teacher Interaction2008-07-03 Aruba Networks
  While quite effective, smart classrooms have had limited deployment due to their high cost and need for specialized physical spaces. However, as the adoption of Wi-Fi enabled laptops proliferates and schools rollout ubiquitous Wi-Fi coverage, the virtual smart classroom is fast becoming a reality. With suitable laptop and server software, smart classroom functions - including interactivity at almost any level of complexity - can be readily emulated anywhere without dedicated facilities or expensive, specialized systems.

whitepaper WiMAX and Wi-Fi Together: Synergies for Next-Generation Broadband2008-07-01 Intel
  WiMAX is designed to blanket large metropolitan, suburban, or rural areas with multimegabit per second mobile broadband Internet access. Although the wide-area Internet connectivity offered by 2.5G and 3G cellular data services has been mobile, these services do not provide the broadband speeds to which users have become accustomed and that WiMAX can deliver. This paper explores the complementary nature of WiMAX and Wi-Fi, illustrating how service providers can leverage those synergies to offer compelling new services and add to their customer bases.
