Analysis of Bandwidth Reservation Algorithms in HIPERLAN/2

Tags:
bandwidth issues

Overview This paper focuses on performance of channel access methods in the HIPERLAN/2 standard. It discusses commonly used approaches to bandwidth allocation and presents a modified algorithm for effective bandwidth management based on pre-scheduled resource grants. Wireless LANs have gained market acceptance over the last several years, partly because of the increased demand for wireless communications and advances in portable computers and networking technology. Although the first WLAN solutions were used as a cordless replacement for Ethernet networks, it is clear that in the near future WLANs will have to keep up with the growing demand for bandwidth-consuming multimedia traffic.

Technologies that time forgot: 100VGAnyLan

Sadly this proved not to be true, for while network managers flocked to Fast Ethernet to cater for user demands for bandwidth, they stayed away from VG AnyLan in droves. With the advent of server processors like Digital's Alpha and Intel's PCI...

CIOs lack skills for growth

This is brought about by three forces - namely faster-and-cheaper computers (Moore's Law), pervasive connectivity (Metcalf's Law) and greater bandwidth speed (Bandwidth Law). Google and Wikipedia have become the new ways to access information, and...

Dear silicon.com... this little piggybacker, don't talk trash, analyse this...

What a waste of valuable police time - shouldn't they channel their resource into illegal activities which actually harm or cause tangible loss to other members of the public. The only crime I potentially see in piggybacking is that some telecoms...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
