Network protocols
Analysis and development of network protocols to make your networks faster and more flexible.
When network architectures cannot support your requirements, network protocols can be adapted to suit your needs. We can analyse the protocol behaviour in your current (and future) networks to ensure applications behave as expected in the network environment where they are deployed.
Using this analysis, network protocols are then developed to make your networks faster, more robust, more secure, and ensure limited resources are used efficiently.
| Network Protocol Engineering Services | |
|---|---|
| Implementation | Development of protocol suites according to given specifications. |
| Migration | Development of transition strategies to deploy new protocols into a current network deployment such that they co-exist with the existing protocols. |
| Analysis & simulation | Analysis of protocol performance and interactions in particular network environments to identify possible problem areas. |
| Development & standardisation | Specification of new protocols to meet defined network requirements and, where appropriate, standardisation of the protocol in the appropriate organisation. |
| Deployment | Advice on the most appropriate protocol suites to deploy to meet networking requirements - including deployment complexity analysis and configuration recommendations. |
We are fully conversant with the issues and trade-offs involved in the development of new network protocols, and have designed for a variety of network environments:

EPIC - Efficient Protocol Independent Compression
EPIC regains the network capacity that would have otherwise been used to transmit protocol headers. As a result, it offers a dramatic increase in network capacity, especially where protocol-heavy services such as VoIP are being used. The design of this high performance header compression scheme makes it easy to extend to new protocols and to configure the compressor to match the link characteristics.
