Company Press Release
TranSwitch and Industry Leaders to Present a Seminar on "Quality of
Service (QoS) Issues Related To Internet"
Ascend Communications, Orologic Inc., University of Illinois and
TranSwitch to be Represented
SHELTON, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 13, 1997-- TranSwitch Corp.
(NASDAQ: TXCC - news) has announced plans to sponsor and participate in
a seminar titled ''Quality of Service (QoS) Issues Related to
Internet,'' in conjunction with the grand opening of its new Boston
Technology Center.
The seminar will be held on Thursday, Nov. 20, 1997 in Marlboro, Mass.
Traffic through the Internet facilities is doubling every six months
and, as a result, there is a bandwidth bottleneck which is likely to
persist for the foreseeable future. ''We believe this can be dealt with
only through a pragmatic approach which would require a combination of
orderly upgrade of network resources, and a resource allocation policy
based on application requirements. Different applications need to be
assigned different classes of service and treated accordingly in terms
of quality of service (QoS) guarantees, commented Subhash Roy of
TranSwitch Corp. who will be the moderator for the seminar.
The panel will discuss issues related to guaranteeing QoS over the
Internet. The issues to be addressed include:
-- ATM vs. I.P. in Internet backbone from the point of
cost/performance including QoS.
Effect of Access Protocol on QoS. Should QoS concept be extended to
access points or even to
terminations?
-- Others
The featured speakers include the following:
Ascend Communications Inc [Nasdaq:ASND - news]. Dr. Praveen Goli
Orologic Inc. Dr. Raif Onvural
University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Bharghavan Vaduvur
TranSwitch Corp. Subhash Roy

Boston Post Road West, Marlboro, Mass., on Thursday, Nov. 20, 1997,
