whitepaper Scalable IP-VPN Flow Control Mechanism Supporting Arbitrary Fairness Criteria2007-11-16 Osaka University
  In recent years, IP-based Virtual Private Networks (IP-VPNs), which provide a virtual privately owned network over an IP network, have attracted attention. With existing IP-VPNs, however, there is a serious problem that fairness among IPVPN customers is not satisfied. This paper first discuss design objectives of a control mechanism for achieving fair IP-VPN services: achieving inter-VPN fairness, achieving intra-VPN fairness, easy deployment into existing IP networks, and achieving a high scalability. Then it propose an IP-VPN fairness control called I2FVC (Inter- and Intra-VPN Fairness Control) for realizing a fair IP-VPN service in a scalable way. The core of I2VFC is an AIMD (Additive Increase and Multiplicative Decrease) window flow control operating among IP-VPN service provider's edge routers.

whitepaper Enabling Mobility With HP Innovation and the HP Integrity Platform2007-11-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  The ability and willingness to move or change is about mobility. Mobility is a catalyst for these changes as traditional ways of doing business and divisions across segments - media, network, and device companies - are changing as the industry converges. Lifestyle convergence is apparent to all - the boundaries of work, family and home life are no longer solid. Device convergence is happening with handsets, PDAs, PCs and even television. Content needs to be created just once and delivered in the optimal format for any device the consumer wishes to use. Network convergence is about more open, IP-based converged network ecosystems that support the essential requirements for network mobility.

whitepaper A Uni?ed Framework for Modeling TCP-Vegas, TCP-SACK, and TCP-Reno2007-10-22 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
  This paper presents a general analytical framework for the modeling and analysis of TCP variations. The framework allows the modeling of multiple variations of TCP, including TCP-Vegas, TCP-SACK, and TCP-Reno, under general network situations. In particular, the framework allows us to propose the first analytical model of TCP-Vegas for arbitrary on-off traffic that is able to predict the operating point of the network. The analysis provided by this framework leads to many interesting observations with respect to both the behavior of bottleneck links that are shared by TCP sources and the effectiveness of the design decisions in TCP-SACK and TCP-Vegas.

whitepaper IPTV Streaming Provides the Solution to the Demise of Analogue TV Distribution Systems2007-10-18 PROJECTS UK
  IPTV Streaming provides an ideal solution for distribution of television and video channels in the business environment. It provides better quality than conventional analogue distribution and offers the advantages of new services and the ability to reach a wider audience. IPTV is digital - so it is immune from problems of noise, distortion and signal degradation that affect analogue signals. The result is high quality pictures and sound.

whitepaper What You Need To Know About Server 2008 Core Edition2007-07-01 Global Knowledge
  Back in the days of Windows 3.1, you could choose what Windows components you wanted to install. Since then, however, Windows setup has given customers less and less control over what bits should make it over onto your servers and workstations. This white paper explains the reasoning behind this "minimalist" approach to Server 2008 Core Edition that can be simpler to maintain, more reliable, and more resistant to attack than "full-boat" Server 2008 systems.

whitepaper Switch Your Fax Server with a Hosted Fax Solution0000-00-00 MyFax
  The number of organizations choosing to switch their fax server with a Hosted Fax Solution is on the rise. Companies are realizing that the ongoing costs associated with fax servers are too high. Reliability headaches like lost faxes and busy signals add to the mix. Capacity issues requiring that considerable attention be paid to managing fax volume and provisioning are also a factor. Moreover, the fact that fax servers require dedicated IT personnel that detract from other mission critical systems drives organizations to explore hosted fax solution.

Download this white paper to learn if a hosted fax solution is a right for your company.

whitepaper TCP MaxNet - Implementation and Experiments on the WAN in Lab2007-09-07 California Institute of Technology
  This paper describes implementation and performance of TCP MaxNet, a new protocol which uses a multi-bit explicit signaling approach to congestion control. The MaxNet sender algorithm operates by adjusting its congestion window in response to explicit feedback from the most congested link encountered in the network. This scheme has numerous theoretical advantages over the ubiquitous practice of adjusting the congestion window based on the total amount of congestion in the path. The MaxNet control scheme is implemented on top of the existing Linux TCP/IP protocol framework and its performance is evaluated in the high bandwidth-delay environment of the WAN in Lab.

whitepaper Best Effort Traffic Drives Service Providers to Simpler, Faster Cores2007-09-01 Force10 Networks
  With best effort traffic dominating, service providers are looking for a cost-effective alternative to service-rich, converged networks. For many, the service-rich core they've built around multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) is overkill for the bulk of their actual traffic. Consequently, they're turning to lower-cost infrastructure alternatives based on 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and traditional IP routing.
