Real-Time Traffic Support in Large-Scale Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Overview Ad hoc networks have been proposed for a variety of applications where support for real-time multimedia services will be necessary. This requires that the network is able to offer Quality of Service (QoS) appropriate for the latency and jitter bounds of the real-time application constraints. This paper analyzes the primary challenges of realizing QoS in large scale mobile ad hoc networks and proposes a QoS framework for real-time traffic support. Specifically, the proposed QoS framework first utilizes a call setup protocol at the IP layer to discover paths for real-time flows, as well as to perform admission control by accurate service quality prediction.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
