TV White Space
TV white space refers to vacant TV spectrum that is available for unlicensed use. It provides improved wireless coverage over existing options like WiFi by 3-5 times. TV white space signals can travel farther and penetrate obstacles like walls better than WiFi due to their lower frequency. This makes TV white space suitable for wireless internet providers to service rural and remote areas without line-of-sight connectivity.
Tv white space reusing old spectrum in innovative ways - Networkshop44
TV White Spaces (TVWS) are unused frequencies made available following the analog to digital TV switchover. A TVWS network can provide rural broadband or community internet access using available TV spectrum. Nominet tested a TVWS network in Oxford to connect sensors in a park to the internet, establishing a point-to-point link of over 470 meters. While TVWS has potential for extending connectivity, its use depends on location and spectrum availability may not be guaranteed. Further development is still needed to make TVWS radios and networks more user-friendly.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
