  • Strategic Use of the Internet and E-Commerce: Cisco Systems
    Journal of Strategic Information Systems 11 (2002) 5±29 www.elsevier.com/locate/jsis Strategic use of the Internet and e-commerce: Cisco Systems Kenneth L. Kraemer*, Jason Dedrick Graduate School of Management and Center for Research on Information Technology and Organizations, University of California, Irvine, 3200 Berkeley Place, Irvine, CA 92697-4650, USA Accepted 3October 2001 Abstract Information systems are strategic to the extent that they support a ®rm's business strategy. Cisco Systems has used the Internet and its own information systems to support its strategy in several ways: (1) to create a business ecology around its technology standards; (2) to coordinate a virtual organiza- tion that allows it to concentrate on product innovation while outsourcing other functions; (3) to showcase its own use of the Internet as a marketing tool. Cisco's strategy and execution enabled it to dominate key networking standards and sustain high growth rates throughout the 1990s. In late 2000, however, Cisco's market collapsed and the company was left with billions of dollars in unsold inventory, calling into question the ability of its information systems to help it anticipate and respond effectively to a decline in demand. q 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Introduction Information systems are strategic to the extent that they are used to support or enable different elements of a ®rm's business strategy (Porter and Millar, 1985). Cisco Systems, the world's largest networking equipment company, has used the Internet, electronic commerce (e-commerce), and information systems as part of its broad strategy of estab- lishing a dominant technology standard in the Internet era.

  • Digital Radio Technology and Applications
    it DIGITAL RADIO TECHNOLOGY AND APPLICATIONS Proceedings of an International Workshop organized by the International Development Research Centre, Volunteers in Technical Assistance, and United Nations University, held in Nairobi, Kenya, 24-26 August 1992 Edited by Harun Baiya (VITA, Kenya) David Balson (IDRC, Canada) Gary Garriott (VITA, USA) 1 1 X 1594 F SN % , IleCl- -.01 INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH CENTRE Ottawa Cairo Dakar Johannesburg Montevideo Nairobi New Delhi 0 Singapore 141 V /IL s 0 /'A- 0 . Preface The International Workshop on Digital Radio Technology and Applications was a milestone event. For the first time, it brought together many of those using low-cost radio systems for development and humanitarian-based computer communications in Africa and Asia, in both terrestrial and satellite environments. Ten years ago the prospect of seeing all these people in one place to share their experiences was only a far-off dream. At that time no one really had a clue whether there would be interest, funding and expertise available to exploit these technologies for relief and development applications. VITA and IDRC are pleased to have been involved in various capacities in these efforts right from the beginning. As mentioned in VITA's welcome at the Workshop, we can all be proud to have participated in a pioneering effort to bring the benefits of modern information and communications technology to those that most need and deserve it. But now the Workshop is history. We hope that the next ten years will take these technologies beyond the realm of experimentation and demonstration into the mainstream of development strategies and programs.

  • Cisco Modem User Interface
    Cisco Modem User Interface Feature History Release Modification 12.2(4)T This feature was introduced. This document describes the Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature feature in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)T. It includes the following sections: • Feature Overview, page 1 • Supported Platforms, page 3 • Supported Standards, MIBs, and RFCs, page 3 • Configuration Tasks, page 4 • Monitoring and Maintaining the Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature, page 9 • Configuration Examples, page 9 • Command Reference, page 12 • Glossary, page 13 Feature Overview The Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature feature enables Cisco routers to behave like a modem and be configured using standard Hayes modem commands. Figure 1 shows a legacy data transfer configuration using X.25, modems, and telephone lines. Americas Headquarters: Cisco Systems, Inc., 170 West Tasman Drive, San Jose, CA 95134-1706 USA Cisco Modem User Interface Feature Overview Figure 1 Legacy Data Transfer Equipment POS Host terminal system Modem Modem PSTN 60548 With the Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature feature, a point of sale (POS) terminal, such as those used by gasoline service stations to charge customers for merchandise and services, can use high-speed Internet connections rather than slow-speed telephone connections to transfer data (see Figure 2). Figure 2 Data Transfers Using the Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature POS Client Host terminal router system Internet 60549 The user interface to the higher speed connection will not change when the Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature feature is used; the user interface will still appear as if the connection on the POS terminal is through a modem and a telephone line. Although there are a wide variety of proprietary extensions to the Hayes modem commands, the Asynchronous Line Monitoring feature feature supports only a subset of the commands.

INTENDED AUDIENCE This document is intended for telecommunications managers, systems programmers, and others who choose and implement asynchronous file transfer protocols over dial-up networks and related environments. 2. WHY DEVELOP ZMODEM? Since its development half a decade ago, the Ward Christensen MODEM protocol has enabled a wide variety of computer systems to interchange data. There is hardly a communications program that doesn't at least claim to support this protocol, now called XMODEM. Advances in computing, modems and networking have spread the XMODEM protocol far beyond the micro to micro environment for which it was designed. These application have exposed some weaknesses: + The awkward user interface is suitable for computer hobbyists. Multiple commands must be keyboarded to transfer each file. + Since commands must be given to both programs, simple menu selections are not possible. + The short block length causes throughput to suffer when used with timesharing systems, packet switched networks, satellite circuits, and buffered (error correcting) modems. + The 8 bit checksum and unprotected supervison allow undetected errors and disrupted file transfers. + Only one file can be sent per command.
