Data Communications and their Performance
In fact, applications may "classically" choose either the connection-less or the connection oriented transport services. In both cases, S. Fdida et al. ...
We discuss the consequences of ALF and ILP based design on the way communication systems should be designed for more integration and more efficiency. ...
The applications require to be involved in the choice of the control mechanisms and not only the parameters of a "standard" transport service. ...

Shippers' willingness to delegate modal control in freight transportation
2020
Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review
A B S T R A C T This paper investigates the willingness of shippers to delegate control over the transportation mode in freight transportation, using discrete choice analysis. ...
Firms can use this characterization of freight transportation demand to design service packages that will meet the demands of global supply chains. ...
A successful implementation in a largescale network requires shippers to move away from a transportation mode choice approach towards a transportation service choice approach. ...

Efficient TTI for 3G Multimedia Applications
2007
Advances in Multimedia
An efficient TTI choice can save computational complexity. ...
It is shown that different operating environments require an appropriate TTI in terms of bit error rate (BER) performance for the following data rates: 28.8 kbps, 64 kbps, 144 kbps, 384 kbps, and 2 Mbps ...
Furthermore, our analysis shows that in terms of BER, an efficient TTI choice depends on bit rate and operating environment. ...
