Due to recent advances, Ethernet is starting to move from Local area networks to carrier networks. Nevertheless as the requirements of carrier networks are more demanding, the technology needs to be enhanced. Schemes designed for improving Ethernet to match carrier requirements can be categorized in two classes. The first class improves Ethernet control components only, and the second class imp...

This paper discusses how ad-hoc Personal Area Network (PAN) based on Bluetooth technology may connect to external networks. We assume that the Bluetooth network (piconet) is formed by the automatic SAPIFO procedure [4], that one or more piconet devices have access to external networks, and that IPv4 is used for external communication. Bluetooth have specified a PAN profile[2] for IP over Blueto...

It is hard to imagine modern industrial automation without communication via the Industrial Ethernet protocol. Even though its use has been discussed for many years, the technology has gained widespread acceptance among users and is employed in a wide range of applications. In the market, several competing approaches have become established. The manufacturers of automation products are now face...

This document describes a method for controlling two specific types of Ethernet switching via Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS). This document supports the types of switching corresponding to the Ethernet services that have been defined in the context of the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) and International Telecommunication Union (ITU) G.8011. Specifically, switching in support of ...

IPTV is mainly used for Live Streaming, Time Shifting and provide Videos on Demand (VOD). In recent years of development in System on Chip (SOC) design the Ethernet transmission capability is 100Mbps.The data transmitted is in the form of packets through the Ethernet cable. This packet has to be converted into frames and stored in the memory. Generally, processor accesses the memory and stores ...
