This classic talk from 2002-03, captures some of the key traffic engineering and core network design strategies deployed by carriers from the early 1990's to early 2000's, and (now, in 2011!) provides a great historical perspective on how network cores have evolved. It will prove valuable for those looking to understand network evolution, and the operational principles and considerations behind it...

The general purpose of operating systems like Linux, thanks to their predisposition to adapt easily to different application contexts, is a common choice for many new generation mobile devices. Being a key feature to improve mobility, energy efficiency has become a high priority design goal, and the implementation of the necessary mechanisms to optimize both power and performances can no longer be separated from the requirements of ease of development, portability and adaptability.
This work presents a formal model to define the problem of power vs performance control. We have proven that a distributed control is particularly suited to meet the goals of both adaptability and portability, without unduly compromising the effectiveness of control and its efficiency.
Starting from the current Linux solution we will advance the proposal for an extension that is better tailored to embedded mobile systems. The proposed solution has been implemented in a new Linux kernel framework named CPM which is competitive in adaptability and ensures better control on performances while still not affecting ease of implementation.
Alvarion is answering carrier’s needs for a complete, end-to-end WiMAX solution for personal broadband services by leveraging its advanced base station, BreezeMAX, while incorporating IP mobility core components
and a wide range of end user devices to create its 4Motion™ solution.
CWC-AE provides the most widely-installed FTI system in the world with more flight hours than any other. We lower risk by supplying COTS hardware that has been proven on every platform type in all environmental conditions and delivers data reliably every time thanks to its ‘works once, works always’ finite state machine construction. The COTS design results in short lead times ensuring the hardware is delivered quickly.
Cisco Unified Computing Systems UpdateCisco Canada
The Cisco Unified Computing System represents a radical simplification of traditional architectures, dramatically reducing the number of devices organizations must purchase, deploy, and maintain. Cisco UCS delivers end-to-end optimization for virtualized environments while retaining the ability to support traditional OS and application stacks in physical environments. This session will provide attendees with an update on new features available from both hardware and software perspectives for the Cisco Unified Computing System.
Growing consumer demand for smart phones, coupled with the continuing performance growth of such devices, means mobile users are increasingly using applications that make bandwidth and connection demands of the carrier network. There is already a lot of data traffic on mobile networks and at peak periods that might mean congestion and slower access to data.
Network Operators, in order to deal with such demand, deploy network-based PCRF and PCEF/TDF solutions that respond to the network traffic at that particular time and offer a level of control according to various access policies.

ZigBee technology provides unique features for the deployment of RTLS systems in certain segments and markets. The added possibility of management of all kinds of sensors (temperature, humidity, presence and movement, dangerous gases, electricity consumption,...) and actuators (air conditioning, valves, opening and locking of doors and windows, alarms, control lights and appliances, ... ) enables to provide a complete solution under a single, robust technology
This document briefly describes what is ZigBee, their main characteristics and its implementation as an RTLS system. It includes a description of specific use cases for hotels, supermarkets, healthcare, police, security and vigilance, industry and miners.
In particular describes the n-Core® platform, under ZigBee technology, which supplies a complete development and production environment both for automation services as well for location (RTLS) services.
As always, any comment will be welcome. If you wish to learn more about the n-Core® platform please contact me or send me an email.

Elements of Cross-Layer System & Network Design for QoS-Enabled Wi-Max Networks Vishal Sharma, Ph.D.
The main theme of this workshop is to elucidate medium access control (MAC) layer operation and cross-layer system and network design techniques for providing Quality-of-Service (QoS) in wireless broadband networks, and to put it in the context of military communications. We will use the IEEE 802.16 standard as an example for the rich feature set it presents, and the flexibility it provides for...
