whitepaper Pathfinder Designs Test Tracking Software for a Country's Standardized Testing Program2009-01-01 Pathfinder Development
  In an Arabic Gulf State, Pathfinder and its client, a large Research and Data Analysis firm, are helping transform the educational system. Part of the vision for the new system was the implementation of a standardized testing program administered over a four-week period at several hundred schools. To manage the logistics of this testing program, an application was needed to monitor the status and location of over a million exam and answer books. The application needed to be usable for both Arabic speakers and English speakers with varied education and experience levels. Pathfinder was brought in to create the user models and user interfaces for the application, including the user interface to a hardware bar code scanner, which was critical to achieve the needed processing bandwidth for the exams.

whitepaper Beyond the Simple "Light Switch": Why North America's Leading MLS Provider Replaced NetScaler With F5 for Better Optimization, Control and Lower TCO2008-11-11 F5 Networks
  As one of the largest Internet-based MLS (Multiple Listing Service) providers in North America, Rapattoni Corporation required fast, consistent client access to their applications and data, from any locale, using any system. The challenge was increase in traffic, needed continuous, uninterrupted access to data and required targeted compression capability. The BIG-IP is positioned within the data center in front of Rapattoni's application and data servers - a locale where F5 has been successfully delivering application traffic for nearly 10 years and 10,000 customers worldwide. This was clearly exemplified in the product's Intelligent Compression capability which compresses HTTP traffic to reduce bandwidth consumption, lower TCO, and speed end user download times over slower/low bandwidth connections.

whitepaper LiveAir Networks Delivers Low-Cost, High-Bandwidth Internet Connections to "Sub-Rural" Texas Communities With Rugged, Manageable D-Link Switches2008-08-26 D-Link
  To bridge the gaps between communities, LiveAir designed an IP-enabled digital microwave tower system that would send IP traffic from hub to hub and eventually to user radios. As part of that design process, they needed a switch line that would allow them to run multiple VLANs while maintaining ease of manageability (SNMP) and remote log-in and manageability capabilities. In order to pump IP signals across desolate landscape, LiveAir designed a point to point, wireless link system which connects microwave antennae on water towers (and other tall structures). This provides anywhere from 12 to 36 mbps, depending on the length of the link between towers. Ethernet interfaces on each side connect to D-Link xStack switches to form what LiveAir has dubbed their "Eccentric ring."
