Distance Learning Environment Demonstration.

Abstract

The Distance Learning Environment Demonstration (DLED) was a comparative study of distributed multimedia computer-based training using low cost high performance technologies. An all Pentium PC network ported to Novell/Ethernet and ATM/SONET (Asynchronous Transfer Mode/Synchronous Optical Network) environments used heterogeneous Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products for computer-based training, multimedia communications, networking, and measurement. The DLED project provides baseline research in the effective use of distance learning and multimedia communications over a wide area ATM/SONET network. The network performance of the NYNet using COTS software was examined along with a Local Area Network (LAN) migration path to the high bandwidth Wide Area Network (WAN) Infosphere.
