PRESENT: Hon. Daniel C. Scripps, Chair Hon. Tremaine L. Phillips, Commissioner Hon. Katherine Peretick, Commissioner ORDER The Commission commenced this proceeding on January 11, 2010, in order to implement the provisions of 2009 PA 182 (Act 182), which amended Section 310 of the Michigan Telecommunications Act, 1991 PA 179, MCL 484.2101 et seq, MCL 484.2310. The amendment reformed toll access service rates in Michigan. MCL 484.2310(1), (2). As noted in 15 of the previous orders in this docket, Act 182 requires that the Commission administer a fund known as the intrastate switched toll access rate restructuring mechanism (restructuring mechanism). MCL 484.2310(9), 484.2310(23)(e). The restructuring mechanism is used to provide monthly disbursements to eligible providers “in order to recover the lost intrastate switched toll access service revenues resulting from rate reductions under [MCL 484.2310(2)].” MCL 484.2310(8). The restructuring mechanism is funded via “a mandatory monthly contribution by all providers of retail intrastate telecommunications services and all providers of commercial mobile service.” MCL 484.2310(12). The act further provides that “The commission may increase or decrease the contribution assessment on a quarterly or other basis as necessary to maintain sufficient funds for disbursements.” MCL 484.2310(14).

  • List of TCP and UDP Port Numbers from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    List of TCP and UDP port numbers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This is a list of Internet socket port numbers used by protocols of the transport layer of the Internet Protocol Suite for the establishment of host-to-host connectivity. Originally, port numbers were used by the Network Control Program (NCP) in the ARPANET for which two ports were required for half- duplex transmission. Later, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) needed only one port for full- duplex, bidirectional traffic. The even-numbered ports were not used, and this resulted in some even numbers in the well-known port number /etc/services, a service name range being unassigned. The Stream Control Transmission Protocol database file on Unix-like operating (SCTP) and the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) also systems.[1][2][3][4] use port numbers. They usually use port numbers that match the services of the corresponding TCP or UDP implementation, if they exist. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for maintaining the official assignments of port numbers for specific uses.[5] However, many unofficial uses of both well-known and registered port numbers occur in practice. Contents 1 Table legend 2 Well-known ports 3 Registered ports 4 Dynamic, private or ephemeral ports 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Table legend Official: Port is registered with IANA for the application.[5] Unofficial: Port is not registered with IANA for the application. Multiple use: Multiple applications are known to use this port. Well-known ports The port numbers in the range from 0 to 1023 are the well-known ports or system ports.[6] They are used by system processes that provide widely used types of network services.

Thompson 2 To my mother Hyacinth Thompson and to the memory of my father Carlton Thompson, for always supporting me during my studies and work. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The path to PhD has been very challenging and I have achieved a milestone in my career. I learned a lot about the field of IP telecommunications, peformance analysis, and associated qualitative research methods. This dissertation would not have been written without the help of certain individuals. I would like to extend my gratitude towards my advisor Dr. Latchman and co-advisor Dr. McNair. They helped me with the selection of my topic and provided guidance during the writing of my dissertation. Their encouragement and insights have always been inspiring. In addition, none of this could have been possible without my family and loved ones providing their continuous support during my various course studies. Also, I would like to thank my friends and colleagues from the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Florida. Finally, I would like to thank Texas Instruments ™ for providing financial support for this work. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS..................................4 LIST OF TABLES......................................9 LIST OF FIGURES..................................... 10 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS ................................ 14 ABSTRACT......................................... 17 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION .................................... 19 Motivation........................................ 20 Voice Networks..................................... 21 Traditional Telecommunications Networks..................
