The IACS is a packet multiplexer offered by AT&T Network Systems that integrates voice, data, and image information through packetizing and statistical multiplexing. IMS conducted a trial of the IACS between October 1988 and January 1989 in a selected segment of AT&T's Corporate Network. The trial gave the users an opportunity to evaluate the network performance, as well as the operation, administration, and maintenance tools, while gaining experience in managing and administering an integrated voice/data network. Evaluation of the trial results showed that: (i) the IACS-based packet network maintains both voice and data services quality; and (ii) an integrated voice/data network can be managed more efficiently than separate networks.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":126008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Communications, Including Supercomm Technical Sessions","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116922079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Linear density increase on such a channel can be achieved only by increasing the clock rate of the written data signal. The authors define a measure of coding gain for the recording channel that compares a coded system with an uncoded system, each at a different clock rate, but with the same linear density (or data rate). This measure can be decomposed into the sum of an equalization gain and a fundamental coding gain. It is shown that good equalization gain can be achieved by choosing multidimensional codewords such that their power spectra are 'matched' to the channel pulse response spectrum, and they have increased minimum distance at the channel output.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":126008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Communications, Including Supercomm Technical Sessions","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127129914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The switching software architecture envisioned for the future would allow an operating company to rapidly deploy new services in response to customers' needs. The open interface between call processing and service processing would permit the company to make deployment decisions based on business and operational considerations, in order to optimize service offerings. In fact, it should be possible to migrate service programs from one platform (e.g. the switch) to another (e.g. a centralized control point) and back again as needs dictate. All this could be done without the need for reprogramming call processing or service processing. With the standard program language used for application programming, every switch (independent of supplier) would have the same application software. That software could be acquired, module by module, from many diverse sources.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":126008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Communications, Including Supercomm Technical Sessions","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123582608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flexibility thus achieved will be used for functions such as traffic grooming (e.g. to maximize fill factors) and to implement an integrated protection strategy, whereby spare transmission capacity is managed by downloading protection algorithms to meet the local requirements of each region or network layer. New network topologies will facilitate ease of growth, good path availability (including dual access), and resilience against disasters. These topologies will make maximum use of the existing duct routes. It is concluded that, when combined with new network architectures and management philosophy, SONET-based networks will allow BT to provide improved quality of service and the ability to meet customer requirements into the future.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":126008,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Communications, Including Supercomm Technical Sessions","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125498232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
