- Internet traffic explodes in volume and complexity every day. The demand for robust, reliable routing protocols must keep pace. The challenge for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) is to meet the ever-burgeoning demand for bandwidth with routing solutions that are as reliable as they are scalable. The challenge in all this for Riverstone was to provide stable, proven routing protocols to networking companies that are building out the infrastructure of the wired world. The NextHop GateD carrier-class software suite offers the most complete set of routing protocols in the industry, including OSPF, IS-IS, BGP, Multicast, and IPv6. |

- Taiwan's National Center for High-performance Computing (NCHC) is chartered with creating sophisticated computing and networking solutions. The vision for TWAREN (Taiwan Advanced Research and Education Network) was to create a network that is future-proof, with state-of-the-art performance, and the ability to evolve with user demand and technology. NCHC selected Cisco Systems as the primary network equipment provider and system designer. The four network nodes are supported by Cisco ONS 15600 Multiservice Switching Platforms (MSSP) and Cisco ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platforms (MSTP) that provide enhanced SDH capabilities and can also support intelligent dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) technology for higher fiber bandwidth. |

- A number of people sent in the story of the "hobbits" found on the Indoenesian isle of Flores, but it's this article sent in by queervegan that frames the discovery nicely in the field of animal rights. In "Eton or the Zoo?" anthropologist Desmond Morris asks the obvious question: "how would we treat this close relative if one were found alive today?" While there's lots of musings about religion, I liked this passage: |

- Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) converts a frequency-selective fading channel into parallel flat-fading subchannels, thereby simplifying channel equalization and symbol decoding. However, OFDM's performance suffers from the loss of multipath diversity, and the inability to guarantee symbol detectability when channel nulls occur. This paper introduces a linear constellation precoded OFDM for wireless transmissions over frequency-selective fading channels. |

- This paper investigates different antenna diversity concepts, which can be easily applied to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The focus is on standard compatibility, i.e. these schemes can be implemented to already existing OFDM systems without changing the standards. The introduced diversity techniques are applied exemplarily to the DVB-T system. |

- All electrical equipment produces heat, which must be removed to prevent the equipment temperature from rising to an unacceptable level. Most Information Technology equipment and other equipment found in a data center or network room is air-cooled. Sizing a cooling system requires an understanding of the amountof heat produced by the equipment contained in the enclosed space, along with the heat produced by the other heat sources typically encountered. This document describes how to estimate heat output from Information Technology equipment and other devices in a data center such as UPS, for purposes of sizing air conditioning systems. A number of common conversion factors and design guideline values are also included. |
