Evaluating “no-new-wires” home networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Emerging broadband entertainment applications such as IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) and whole-house PVR (Personal Video Recorder) bring new challenges to existing home networks. Gigabit Ethernet is an obvious choice, but consumers are still reluctant due to the need for rewiring in most dwellings. Several “no-new-wires” technologies have been proposed in recent years, but there is little work on how to distribute IPTV, VoIP (Voice over IP) and data traffic together effectively and efficiently in a household environment. In this paper, we propose a wireless/wired-hybrid, multi-link structure for broadband home networks, and investigate its feasibility and performance through a multimedia over multi-link testbed. Our measurement study shows that the proposed multi-link structure can improve the performance, reliability and availability of home networks considerably, indicating that it is an attractive approach to multimedia in-home distribution. In addition, the paper also discusses the challenges and approaches in further improving the performance of heterogeneous, multi-link home networks.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
