Long-term planning in a short-term world: The stability stance
A company's strategic stance dictates its project time horizons--which, in turn, have a major impact on how the IT organization functions. In growth stance, businesses will have extended horizons, with long-term projects sometimes stretching over five years. By contrast, the stability stance demands a far more constricted horizon. Stability-oriented companies,...

Long-term planning in a short-term world: The productivity stance
Mapping corporate strategies to IT projects is often an exercise in misunderstanding and frustration, and many IT groups operate with little if any regard for the latest strategic pronouncements. But understanding the basic stances that drive company strategies allows managers to identify and exploit the synergies between business goals and...

hostname changes affecting DNS
I have a project to change the hostnames of 40 cisco switches. My plan was to coordinate the name changes with the DNS server admins so that no DNS issues would arise. Management wants the names changed and 2 weeks later the DNS updated with the new names....

Long-term planning in a short-term world: The acquisition stance
To effectively link corporate strategy to actual projects, IT departments need to understand the interplay between strategic stances, synergy, and time horizons. In the final installment of his series on strategic planning, Shannon Kalvar looks at how these concepts interrelate and takes a look at the particular challenges of the...

Designing Security Practices for Data and Network Protection
Fifteen years ago, many IT shops and organizations were huddled in conference rooms determining their policies and best practices for data security. Documents were made, unofficial standards were set, and IT administrators took up a defensive stance at the perimeter of their networks. Since then, many new threat vectors have...

Service Level Agreements: Proving the Business Value of Data Protection
SLAs are a best-practices approach to data protection, and a strategic way for service providers and internal teams to prove the value of their services. Through a well-crafted SLA, data protection teams can move from a reactive stance where their services are largely invisible, to a proactive stance, with specific...

Routing Stability in Static Wireless Mesh Networks
Considerable research has focused on the design of routing protocols for wireless multi-hop networks. Yet, very little is understood about the stability of routes in such networks. This understanding is important in the design of wireless routing protocols, and in network planning and management. This paper presents results from the...

Long-term planning in a short-term world: The growth stance
Companies that have adopted a growth stance are primarily concerned with ROI and long-term projects, such as ERP and infrastructure upgrades. Aligning with this type of strategy can be tricky for IT departments, which traditionally focus on quicker projects with shorter horizons. Successful projects in growth-oriented companies will involve incremental...

A New TCP Congestion Control With Empty Queues and Scalable Stability
This paper describes a new congestion avoidance system designed to maintain dynamic stability on networks of arbitrary delay, capacity, and topology. This is motivated by recent work showing the limited stability margins of TCP Reno/RED as delay or network capacity scale up. Based on earlier work establishing mathematical requirements for...

The Price of Stability for Network Design With Fair Cost Allocation
Network design is a fundamental problem for which it is important to understand the effects of strategic behavior. Given a collection of self-interested agents who want to form a network connecting certain endpoints, the set of stable solutions - the Nash equilibria - may look quite different from the centrally...

(Gallery: $60 router + DD-WRT = high-end wireless router)
Software stability?The screen shots show excellent functionality, although I didn't see syslog logging in there perhaps on a screen not captured. The main issue aside from warranty I can see would be stability of DD-WRT "firmware". Anyone any experience with it?

Stability Analysis of Some Classes of TCP/AQM Networks
The local stability analysis of some classes of nonlinear time-delay systems, encountered as fluid flow models for TCP/AQM networks, is addressed. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the linearized models are obtained. Nonlinear stability conditions are derived using a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach. The analysis of fluid flow...

Linear Stability Analysis of FAST TCP Using a New Accurate Link Model
A link model which captures the queue dynamics when congestion windows of TCP sources change was recently proposed. By considering both the self-clocking and the link integrator effects, the model is a generalization of the known extreme cases and is more accurate in general. This paper applies this model to...

Stability Analysis of RED Gateway With Multiple TCP Reno Connections
It has been observed that a bottleneck Random Early Detection RED gateway becomes oscillatory when regulating a flow in multiple TCP connections. The stability boundary of the TCP-RED system depends on various network parameters, making the adjustment of the RED gateway a difficult task. Based on a fluid-flow model, the...
