Seminar titled "Quality of Service (QoS). SHELTON, CONN. (Jan. 14) BUSINESS WIRE -January 14, 1998-- Ascend Communications, FORE Systems, Orologic, Inc., University of Illinois and TranSwitch to be Represented TranSwitch Corporation (NASDAQ: TXCC) has announced plans to sponsor and participate in a seminar titled "Quality of Service (QoS) Issues Related to Internet", during the annual ComNet Show in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, January 28, 1998. 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 Corporation 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: Dr. Praveen Goli, Senior Network Consultant Ascend Communications, Inc. Bing Yang, Director of Hardware FORE Systems Dr. Raif Onvural, President & CEO Orologic, Inc. Bharghavan Vaduvur, Assistant Professor University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Subhash Roy, Principal Engineer TranSwitch Corporation The seminar will be held at the Grand Hyatt Hotel (directly across the street from the Washington Convention Center), 1000 H Street, NW, Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, January 28, 1998.
