In this edition we have a landslide of featured whitepapers with a staggering total of eight. Today we start off with a previously featured whitepaper from NetQoS, which demonstrates the importance of monitoring application response time. Along with other previously featured whitepapers we have three brand new whitepapers posted on Network World Fusion. The first of our new whitepapers is from Loudcloud. In this whitepaper Loudcloud examines the benefits of Opsware which could help your company automate its Internet operations. Next is a whitepaper from Lucent Technologies, which is an IP services solutions guide. Rounding up the latest additions to our library of whitepapers is an article from Cisco. In this whitepaper Cisco illustrates the trends and their solutions for data, voice and video convergence. NetQoS Uptime is Not Enough - Monitor Application Response Time The applications running on your network are unresponsive, resulting in end-user dissatisfaction and reduced productivity. Everyone is looking at you to solve the problem. However, it's hard to pinpoint the problem and you're spending valuable time troubleshooting every avenue. Is it the application, server, or network? Monitoring Application Response Time, a white paper from NetQoS, will explore the components of application response time, the response time monitoring approaches available, and how you can analyze sources of delay in networked applications without the costly deployment of endpoint agents. http://nww1.com/go/0114wp_netqos.html Winternals Software Enterprise Defragmenters For Windows NT/2000: Cost and Benefits Compared In this whitepaper Winternals Software explains the impact of defrag software.

According to Winternals Software many defrag companies claim the use of defrag software may have a cost savings of nearly $350 annually per user. Supported by figures and charts, Winternals Software demonstrates how ambitious this number appears to be. In addition to the cost savings analysis, Winternals unveils other possible hurdles involved with defrag software. To provide you with an alternative, Winternals Software introduces Defrag Commander.
