WAN Networks for a Moving Work Environment A brief look at using small transportable (flyaway) VSAT for high bandwidth data, voice and video conferencing to provide services in a moving environment (e.g. resource exploration and film making industry)
Linking LANs into WANs

Michael Patton has had a challenge that other information-services executives would envy: His company, USA Waste Services, has been expanding like mad, and it's been Patton's task to expand his company's computer intranet to keep pace.
Comparative Approached in Implementing Wide Area Satellite Networks The tremendous growth of Internet and intranet applications has placed greater demands on traditional LAN/WAN connectivity methods. Various satellite-based solutions have emerged to address this need for greater speed and higher capacity in geographically-dispersed, mufti-server networks. This paper helps users and buyers of satellite systems to understand the fundamental tradeoffs and equips them to make informed decisions for their application, including a new approach to demand-based wide-area networking.
