Technical White Paper for ATM-ETH IWF | 2007-12-18 | Huawei Technologies |
| With the development of Ethernet, ATM access network is stepping towards Ethernet. The routers with IWF feature provide a perfect solution for making full use of existent ATM network and devices (ATM DSLAM, ATM Switch, etc.). It helps ATM network intercommunicate with Ethernet smoothly through multiple carrier methods such as CCC, PW and VPLS.

Cisco and IBM Provide High-Voltage Grid Operator With Increased Reliability and Manageability of Its Telecommunication Infrastructure | 2007-10-01 | Cisco Systems |
| Terna wanted to eliminate grid blackout risks induced by possible telecommunications failures and improve quality of service and meet stringent target of Energy Not Supplied. The challenge was to replace ageing, expensive ATM network with faster, more reliable MPLS. There was back-up IP network over power lines supplements superior MPLS functionality. Forward Error Control patch-panel solution with Asset Lifecycle Management and Joint Cisco-IBM team covering development, implementation and maintenance was deployed.

A VC-Based API for Renegotiable QoS in Wireless ATM Networks | 0000-00-00 | Alcatel-Lucent |
| Quality of Service (QoS) support for multimedia applications has been widely discussed in the context of high speed wired networks. As interest increases in wireless ATM networks that extend the connection to a wireless endpoint, the issue of QoS over a wireless link has to be addressed. This paper focuses on the pr provision of QoS at the application level in a wireless environment. The work includes the design of an Application Programming Interface (API) that allows applications to specify and renegotiate the QoS level during a call; as well as the implementation of such API in a wireless ATM testbed: the SWAN system.

An Efficient Mobile IP-Wireless ATM Interworking for Mobile Computing | 0000-00-00 | Northern Arizona University |
| Next generation wireless networks are expected to offer a range of services to mobile users, including voice, video, conventional data and internet services in an integrated fashion. This paper identifies the issues in internetworking of Wireless ATM with Mobile IPv6. The mobility features of both Wireless ATM and Mobile IPv6 are exploited to achieve efficient interworking. The paper defines the necessary protocol signaling for Mobile IP-ATM interworking mobility management procedures.

SOAP Message Size Performance Considerations | 2007-08-01 | IBM |
| This paper examines performance when using different SOAP message sizes in CICS Web Services. The paper also reviews a customer scenario, DanskeBank. It provides an overview of the bank's ATM system, and briefly discusses the IFX framework. Use of WebSphere Developer for zSeries (WD/z) to simulate request messages from an ATM is detailed, a performance comparison between optimized and non-optimized schema versions is also presented, and schema versus container definitions, large fields, and schema complexity is covered. Finally, the paper provides an example of the impact of mapping levels.

Providing Rate Guarantees to TCP Over the ATM GFR Service | 2007-07-03 | Ohio State University |
| The ATM Guaranteed Frame Rate (GFR) service is intended for best e ort traffic that can benefit from minimum throughput guarantees. Edge devices connecting LANs to an ATM network can use GFR to transport multiple TCP/IP connections over a single GFR VC. These devices would typically multiplex VCs into a single FIFO queue. It has been shown that in general, FIFO queuing is not sufficient to provide rate guarantees, and per-VC queuing with scheduling is needed. It shows that under conditions of low buffer allocation, it is possible to control TCP rates with FIFO queuing and buffer management. The paper presents analysis and simulation results on controlling TCP rates by buffer management.

Cashferium Helps Retailers and Banks Cut Costs by Keeping Cash Flow Local | 2007-06-01 | IBM |
| With banks and retailers spending some ?50 billion each year on the handling of cash, the incentive for reducing the amount of cash in transit - one of the main sources of this cost - is powerful. However, with banks and retailers separated by a mountain of disparate processes and systems, the goal of a shorter cash cycle has yet to be realized. Startup Cashferium created a whole new process framework for the exchange of cash between retailers, banks and their ATMs. Cashferium then engaged IBM to help define and optimize these processes, and to create a secure, flexible platform for delivering - and continually adapting - its service.

Automated Windows and Desktop Management: M&T Bank | 0000-00-00 | Novell |
| Headquartered in western New York, M&T Bank is a regional bank recognized for its financial strength, sound management and superior customer service. Not only the company wanted to automate the management of their ATMs, the bank also wanted to automate desktop management and reduce the amount of IT time spent physically visiting individual desktops. To manage its Windows ATM environment, M&T Bank evaluated 10 different software vendors including Microsoft SMS, Altiris, LANDesk and others, before narrowing its search to Novell ZENworks and CA Unicenter. After an in-house evaluation, M&T bank selected Novell ZENworks to manage its ATMs, as well as more than 15,000 desktops. ZENworks Desktop Management provided a winning combination of features.
