Anue Systems, the performance leader in network delay and impairment emulation, will demonstrate the effects of network impairments on video streaming and 10 Gigabit Ethernet at SC06 in Booth #813 and will speak at the Exhibitor Forum at 11:30 am, November 16. The supercomputing conference is the premier international conference on high performance computing, networking, storage and analysis. SC06 will be held at the Tampa Convention Center in Florida, November 11-17, 2006. "Many high-performance applications are developed in a controlled environment," said George Salemie, Director of Sales at Anue. "When they are deployed in a distributed system, performance can suffer. Resolving application performance issues over the WAN may require re-engineering, which consumes resources of time, people and money. Testing with network emulation during development can bring significant savings." Salemie will speak on "The Weakest Link: the Impact of Wide Area Networking on Networked Application Performance" in the Advanced Networks session of the Exhibitor Forum at 11:30 on Thursday, November 16. Anue will demonstrate the impact of WANs on performance from November 13-16 at Booth #318 in the exhibit hall. Attendees can compare impaired and unimpaired video streams and see the effects of packet drop, jitter, delay, bandwidth policing and reorder on IP video. High-speed network emulation will be highlighted in a 10 Gigabit Ethernet demonstration that features the ability of Anue network emulators to sustain line-rate traffic while injecting packet jitter and other impairments. Attendees can also see Anue in action at the University of Tokyo booth (#1557), where the Grape-DR and Data Reservoir projects are breaking records for high-speed, long-distance networking.
