whitepaper Management Strategy for Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure2009-09-30 American Power Conversion (APC)
  When choosing a management solution for the physical infrastructure of IT networks, management of individual devices is necessary in order to have visibility to the many data points required for the reliable operation of network-critical physical infrastructure (NCPI). Element management solutions offer the optimum approach as they manage a particular type of device and have the ability to assimilate and, more importantly, make manageable the large volume of data necessary for network availability.

whitepaper Orange- customer case study2009-09-08 Pitney Bowes
  The ability to leverage location intelligence was critical to the successful rollout of our 3G network as it enabled us to identify potential customers and where they would likely use our enhanced third generation services. As our decision making process was much more informed by location-based data, we could build our network in areas that will serve our customers most effectively.

whitepaper BCube: A High Performance, Server-Centric Network Architecture for Modular Data Centers2009-08-21 Association for Computing Machinery
  This paper presents BCube, a new network architecture specifically designed for shipping-container based, modular data centers. At the core of the BCube architecture is its server-centric network structure, where servers with multiple network ports connect to multiple layers of COTS (commodity o-the-shelf) mini-switches. Servers act as not only end hosts, but also relay nodes for each other. BCube sup-ports various bandwidth-intensive applications by speeding-up one-to-one, one-to-several, and one-to-all traffic patterns, and by providing high network capacity for all-to-all traffic. BCube exhibits graceful performance degradation as the server and/or switch failure rate increases. This property is of special importance for shipping-container data centers, since once the container is sealed and operational, it becomes very difficult to repair or replace its components.

whitepaper Access control Lists (ACLs)2009-08-21 Global Knowledge
  In this white paper, we'll take a look at access control lists (ACLs), often referred to as access lists or ACLs (sometimes pronounced "ackels"). In Cisco IOS, ACLs are used for many things, including, but not limited to, filtering data packets (firewalling), controlling Telnet or SSH access to a router or switch, filtering routing protocols, specifying Quality of Service (QoS), and controlling encryption, NAT, and Dial-on-Demand.

whitepaper Harnessing the Power of Location Intelligence in the Public Sector2009-08-20 Pitney Bowes
  Throughout the world, public services today are under pressure. The current economic climate, where tax receipts are naturally suppressed, provides very serious funding challenges. Moreover, in good times and bad, increasing regulation at the regional and national level is imposing additional duties and responsibilities on the public services without additional resources to carry them out. Store closures are changing the urban landscape. Demographic and/or economic change is increasing demand for health and social services. Demand for decreased crime rates is focusing minds in law enforcement. And the threat of international terrorism is forcing greater contingency duties on the emergency services. The net result is a need to do more with less—quite a challenge.

whitepaper What Networking of Information Can Do for Cloud Computing2009-07-09 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
  Cloud computing is making it possible to separate the process of building an infrastructure for service provisioning from the business of providing end user services. Today, such infrastructures are normally provided in large data centres and the applications are executed remotely from the users. One reason for this is that cloud computing requires a reasonably stable infrastructure and networking environment, largely due to management reasons. Networking of Information (NetInf) is an information centric networking paradigm that can support cloud computing by providing new possibilities for network transport and storage. It offers direct access to information objects through a simple API, independent of their location in the network.
