Telecom licenses in India currently allow interconnection between circuit-switched networks, and between circuit-switched and
packet-switched networks.
With its combination of virtual bypassing and low-swing signaling, the researchers' test chip consumed 38 percent less energy than previous
packet-switched test chips.
The behavior of certain protocols in a converged,
packet-switched environment renders adding network bandwidth an ineffective fix, particularly for applications sensitive to latency.
Time Warner Cable's Digital Phone service relies on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology, which enables the transmission of phone calls over
