whitepaper Choosing the Right Analyzer for Your WLAN2009-07-06 Global Knowledge
  WLAN analyzers, sometimes called wireless sniffers, help troubleshoot wireless local area networks for poor signal strength, interference, station saturation, and other problems. This white paper will discuss how WLAN analyzers work and what makes them different from wired analyzers. It also covers three common analyzer products, and the differences and advantages of each one.

whitepaper How a Spanning Tree Works2009-06-23 Global Knowledge
  The way a switch learns Ethernet (MAC) addresses is by inspecting the Ethernet frame and recording the source MAC address in a dynamic table. The switch will also associate a learned MAC address with a port. It can then make intelligent forwarding decisions based on the destination MAC address. This white paper illustrates the process. This white paper focuses on Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), IEEE Standard 802.11, and addresses the functions of an Ethernet LAN switch.

whitepaper TANDBERG and Packet Loss2009-06-17 Tandberg
  This paper is intended to describe the packet loss robustness features available with TANDBERG's products. These features include: Intelligent Packet Loss RecoveryTF (IPLRTF), Downspeeding, Quality of Service (QoS). The above mentioned features are all available on the following products: TANDBERG MCU 16+16 / 8+8, TANDBERG GW, TANDBERG 8000, TANDBERG 7000, TANDBERG 6000, TANDBERG 2500, TANDBERG 1000, TANDBERG 880, TANDBERG 800, TANDBERG 550, TANDBERG 500. The IPLR feature is not intended to replace Quality of Service (QoS) techniques which may be employed on IP networks to reserve bandwidth or set precedence on video traffic. However, in the rare event that QoS techniques fail, IPLR is designed to overcome transient packet loss situations and reduce the impact these losses may have on the current video traffic. To fully understand what IPLR offers, an understanding of QoS and video compression are recommended. This paper briefly describes each before describing the details of TANDBERG's IPLR.

whitepaper TANDBERG MCU and IP2009-06-17 Tandberg
  H.323 is an International Telecommunications Union (ITU) standard that describes the protocols, services and equipment necessary for multimedia communications including audio, video and data on networks without guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS). These networks technologies may include Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Token Ring and protocols like Internet Protocol (IP) or Integrated Packet Exchange (IPX). Due to the need to communicate between smaller networks connected to the Internet, IP will be a more popular transport for H.323. Today, the dominant method of Internet communications is email. However, there is a growing need to increase communications to include audio, video and data. The explosion of the Internet in the early 1990's has paved the way to higher bandwidth connections to corporate offices, universities and even to the home. Now that the bandwidth is available, the demand for multimedia communications over the Internet is growing. TANDBERG D2 software now enables IP conferencing on the TANDBERG MCU.

whitepaper Towards Quality of Service in the Cloud2009-06-10 University of Leeds
  Quality of Service (QoS) plays a critical role in the affective reservation of resources within service oriented distributed systems and has been widely investigated in the now well established paradigm of Grid Computing. The emergence of a new paradigm, Cloud Computing, continues the natural evolution of Distributed Systems to cater for changes in application domains and system requirements. Virtualisation of resources, a key technology underlying Cloud Computing, sets forth new challenges to be investigated within QoS and presents opportunities to apply the knowledge and lessons learnt from Grid Computing. QoS has been an issue in many of the Distributed Computing paradigms, such as Grid Computing and High Performance Computing.
