Delay Analysis of Layered Video Caching in Crowdsourced Heterogeneous Wireles...Behrouz Jedari
This document analyzes delay in layered video caching in crowdsourced heterogeneous wireless networks. It proposes using difference of convex programming to find a near-optimal solution to the NP-hard problem of optimizing which video layers to cache in small-cell base stations and user equipment to minimize average download time. Simulation results show the proposed layered video caching approach optimized for delay outperforms alternatives by achieving the lowest delay, and is more robust to increasing user demand and cache size compared to random caching. The optimized approach provides a significant improvement in cache hit ratio.

University of the West of Scotland implements a Multi-Campus Juniper Networks...Juniper Networks UKI
When the University of West of Scotland (UWS) included seamless wireless
coverage across its campuses and included Wi-Fi as a key component
in its strategic objectives, its IT team needed to take a fresh look at the
infrastructure. At that point, wireless connection was available in very small
pockets of the university, mainly in communal areas such as campus cafés,
and coverage was uneven.
University of the Highlands and Islands extents ubiquitous Wi-Fi services acr...Juniper Networks UKI
The University of the Highlands and Islands is unusual in that it covers an
extended geographic region (about half of Scotland, or a sixth of the land
area of the UK). It has almost 100 campus locations supporting about 7,500
Higher Education students and 25,000 Further Education students, and is
based across a wide range and variety of sites, from large campuses supporting
thousands of students, down to single room locations in remote rural areas and
on remote islands.
These broad-ranging geographic variations leave the university with
some unique IT challenges. Available bandwidth can vary hugely between
locations—some close to fiber-optic infrastructure and others in remote
corners of the region where even broadband speeds are low. Resiliency of
those communication links can be another challenge, as diverse routes can
be impractical, and sub-sea cables or radio links are more exposed than
land-based communication systems. Not least, the university must provide a
consistent service across all of its locations, whether they support a handful of
students or thousands.

The town of Lomma Kommun in Sweden needed to upgrade its unreliable and unsecure network to better support growing demand for public services. It implemented a new Cisco Wi-Fi network with 360 access points and Cisco ISE for secure authentication across all buildings including 30 schools and care centers. This allows staff and students to access resources anywhere on campus, saves staff time by not needing to log in and out, and provides free guest Wi-Fi for tourists. The new secure network solution has halved IT costs and freed staff to develop new services for citizens.
Skipton Building Society's aging IT infrastructure was hindering its ability to support the growing business demands, slowing responsiveness. A Cisco Domain Ten workshop assessed IT processes and priorities and developed a customized roadmap for IT transformation. Implementing Cisco UCS Blade Servers and virtualizing servers reduced provisioning time from 4 weeks to less than 1 day. The new agile infrastructure better supports Skipton's competitive application development and ability to adapt to changing business needs.
