Does IPv6 Even Work?
March 1, 2011
With the free pool of IPv4 address space now exhausted, transitioning to IPv6 is set to become increasingly important. IPv6, however, isn't without its own set of challenges; and implementing it isn't as easy as simply flipping a switch.
IPv6

While there's clearly a call to action for service providers, web application providers and even businesses to make sure they have an IPv6 transition in place, the other true test of how much impact IPv6 will have on the state of the Internet will be at the consumer level.

Allows Dual Display/Dual Camera Use From One Processor MIPI Interface Port
February 23, 2011
Parallel data interfaces continue to be used by designers in many newer mobile phone and mobile internet device (MID) designs simply because they are the only interfaces available from the application processor. However, with unyielding end-market pressure demanding lower power, higher data transfer rates and reduced PCB footprints in new designs, cost effective alternatives are becoming viable options.
IPv6 for Consumers Gaining Interest
February 23, 2011
The University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL), an independent provider of broad-based testing and standards conformance services for the networking industry, today announced that as a result of the lab's leadership and innovation in the area of IPv6 interoperability testing, membership in the IPv6 Consortium has increased by 142 percent in the last 12 months. In the wake of the Number Resource Organization's (NRO) central IPv4 address pool depletion announcement, the UNH-IOL remains focused on helping member companies identify...
College students flocking to mechanical, civil engineering
February 21, 2011
One of our more interesting research opportunities is the inter-operability lab, or IOL. They have consortiums made of industrial partners, and I believe they're working with around 150 different companies. The primary function is on testing hardware and computers to see how well they meet international software standards and protocols, such as wireless communications and internet technologies.
Ethernet Alliance to host interoperability test event
February 16, 2011
The Ethernet Alliance Higher Speed Ethernet Subcommittee (HSE) will host an IEEE 802.3ba 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s interoperability test event. It is scheduled for the week of 18 April in Durham, New Hampshire at the University of New Hampshire Interoperability Lab (UNH-IOL). The Ethernet Alliance invites both members and non-members to participate in this 40G and 100G Ethernet interoperability test event for equipment designed to the IEEE 802.3ba standard.
