whitepaper Managing a growing threat: An Executive's Guide to Web Application Security2009-11-19 IBM
  Traditionally, companies have relied on perimeter defenses to keep their networks and data secure. Unfortunately, network firewalls and network vulnerability scanners can't defend against application-level attacks. Cyber-criminals are leveraging relatively simple application exploits to gain access to sensitive information for fun and profit. It's more important than ever to implement secure application strategies to effectively protect your business.

whitepaper The 8 Essential Elements of Internet Security2009-08-21 Black Box
  The evolution of Internet content toward social media and Web 2.0-based sites presents new challenges for organizations. Critical applications have become Web-based, and non-browser generated Web traffic - think iTunes and peer-to-peer networking - has exploded. One has a business Internet connection for two things: Web-based applications (Web site admin tools, CRM tools, collaboration sites) and Web browsing (to do critical research). Of course, some of the employees use their time and Internet connections for non-critical ends, such as checking personal e-mail or streaming music or video. The trick is to maximize the company's broadband capacity and contain related costs while also protecting the assets from malware and viruses.

whitepaper Overcoming IP Telephony Performance Issues in a Converged Network2009-08-07 Global Knowledge
  When implementing Voice over IP (VoIP) onto a data network, you must ensure that the equipment capable of handling the additional load, and, more importantly, that the traffic will be properly classified, marked, and prioritized for optimal performance. Voice traffic is highly intolerant to delay, jitter, and packet loss, so it is critical to prioritize it over normal traffic. In this white paper, we discuss the application of Quality of Service (QoS) to networks with media flows such as voice and video. To take advantage of many modern advances in IP-based telephony, we must take into consideration several design and configuration factors before we can expect it to function properly.

whitepaper Home Networking Technologies: Delivering Media in the Digital Home2009-06-01 Motorola
  Distribution of entertainment services within the home presents service providers with a tremendous opportunity to increase their value and appeal to consumers. Striking a balance between performance, future growth potential, ease of installation and other factors will be the key to fruitful deployments. For more than a decade, operators have put tremendous effort into expanding the carrying capacity of their network infrastructure. Spurred initially by demand for broadband Internet service, operators have more recently recognized that the enhanced bandwidth and increased reliability of their networks would lend themselves to delivery of an even greater array of value added, revenue generating consumer services. Most prominent among these are standard and high definition television, video on demand services and Voice over IP (VoIP).

whitepaper Dueling Directors2009-06-01 TechTarget
  Fibre Channel (FC) as a technology has been relatively static over the past 10 years, and FC switch innovation has been incremental - from bandwidth support and additional features to increased resilience and availability - culminating in the high-end FC director platform. Aside from a few failed incursions by vendors like QLogic Corp. and others, Brocade Communications Systems Inc. and Cisco Systems Inc. now almost exclusively own the high-end Fibre Channel switch and director market.

whitepaper HybridCast: A Hybrid Probabilistic/Deterministic Approach for Adjustable Broadcast Reliability in Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks2009-06-01 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
  Broadcast is a crucial yet expensive building block for many applications in bandwidth-scarce mobile wireless ad hoc networks. The paper proposes a hybrid deterministic/probabilistic, decentralized broadcast protocol with adjustable broadcast reliability and overhead. The paper first proposes a purely probabilistic, topology-aware broadcast algorithm. The probabilistic broadcast adjusts each node's broadcast forwarding probability locally such that the average broadcast reliability requirement is met. An extension of the probabilistic broadcast to tolerate node mobility and packet loss is then presented. Furthermore, the paper augments the proposed probabilistic broadcast scheme with an existing deterministic broadcast protocol in order to reduce excessive broadcast overhead.

whitepaper Veritas Storage Foundation for Windows: Dynamic Multi-Pathing Competitive Comparisons2009-05-01 Symantec
  Multi-pathing software provides the intelligence necessary to manage multiple I/O paths between a server and a storage subsystem. When configured for redundancy, a single path is dedicated to I/O transfer, while other paths are in standby mode. The software manages failover between the I/O paths, thus eliminating the potential for a single point of failure. If connectivity along one path to a storage device is interrupted, the multi-pathing software dynamically switches I/Os to a surviving path, allowing application access to continue unimpeded. The other mode of operation allows for all paths to be utilized for I/O transfer. This can improve performance by leveraging the presence of these multiple paths, increasing the available bandwidth for I/O traffic.
