Intranet Deployment

Modem intranets provide very high network performance, and as one might expect. Cabinet performance over such networks is excellent. Overall Cabinet performance 

The bottom line is that the current crop of workstations/small servers can deliver 4 GB of high-performance scientific data to about 50 intranet users. Today, that hardware costs about US 5000 configured with 4-GB RAM, 1 Gbs networking, DVD-R backup and other features.

A federated database system based on web technology has been designed, implemented and deployed in local, intranet and Internet environments. A number of constituent databases have been deployed that represent a wide variety of data models, for... 

Intranet Developers can rapidly build Chemscape applications using standard HTML tools without special training. Organizations can develop effective chemical registration, query, and browsing applications, and easily deploy them enterprise wide. 

First DataBank has developed numerous drug reference products for healthcare applications, in both print and electronic forms. Most of these products can be deployed on an individual desktop, a local area network and, in some cases, over the Internet or intranet,... 

A system like the one described has been deployed successfully by United Parcel Service using two different platforms. The data preparation is implemented on local computers available at all company locations. The optimization dgorithms are solved remotely on large computers at another location using the company s intranet. The fact that two different platforms are used is hidden from the users, who are informed by e-mail about the status of a submitted job at various stages and get all the reports on the intranet. This kind of application is now possible because of the increase in computer power that permits the solution of difficult optimization problems in reasonable time emd because of the evolution of the Internet that provides the tools supporting a remote implementation. 

Video data transmissions can require a significant bandwidth that depends on the video parameters such as frame rate, resolution and quality (compression). If talking about a virtual community built around VPN/LAN (high-speed intranet in which bandwidth is not an issue) higher-quality transmission can be setup. Even in such cases, there are limits to what a PC can reasonably capture, for example, the application shouldn t exceed 80% of CPU capacity on Windows. Most applications are deployed over the Internet and the bandwidth requirements can profoundly affect the application s functioning and the user experience. The proposed framework considers those aspects, that way the smallest appropriate dimensions and lowest acceptable frame rate is selected in a dynamic manner (within the bandwidth management function).
