Vertical Networks is taking a practical approach to convergence that allows corporate branch offices and small to medium-sized businesses to take advantage of broadband services that can be used for both voice and data as well as for new technologies such as VoIP. InstantOffice supports an integrated VoIP gateway that allows branch offices to create "virtual-tie-line" IP voice connectivity between sites.

Vertical Networks works with channel partners-including carriers, value-added resellers (VARs), and systems integrators-to sell and market the InstantOffice system. The company invests a large percentage of corporate resources into ensuring the success of its partners and treating them as extensions of the company.

Vertical Networks is privately owned and financed through venture capital funding. Investors include Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (www.kpcb.com); Accel Partners (www.accel.com); Telecom Italia (www.telecomitalia.it); Integral Capital Partners, (www.integralcapital.com/); Technology Crossover Ventures (www.tcv.com); Charter Growth Capital (www.charterventures.com); Van Wagoner Capital Management (www.vanwagoner.

Convergence is an outstanding conference for everyone who loves and works in fiber. It is the biennial, international conference sponsored by the Handweavers Guild of America, Inc. (HGA), and hosted by a committee of dedicated fiber enthusiasts. Convergence features keynote speakers, workshops, seminars, exhibits, special events, and vendors of fibers and fiber-related equipment.

To deliver total product solutions, Vertical Networks has developed marketing, distribution, support, manufacturing, and technology relationships with industry-leading partners. Vertical Networks maintains an agreement with AT&T to co-market the InstantOffice system along with AT&T services to customers, and the two companies have recently signed a resale agreement as well.

For each strongly-connected component SPARK solves a system of nonlinear equations for the set of break variables identified by the setup program during the graph-algorithmic analysis. By default the nonlinear solver uses the Newton method with a fixed relaxation coefficient, typically set to 1. The Newton method is locally q-quadratically convergent, which means that if the initial approximation is good enough then it will be improved rapidly until the desired precision is achieved.

Vertical Networks' key competitors include Avaya, Nortel, and Cisco. Unlike its competitors, the InstantOffice system eliminates the complexity of traditional piece-part solutions that include a PBX, voice mail, routers, firewall, and other components, and it interoperates with a company's existing installed hardware and software while providing an integrated platform for future growth.

No. The wireless network is not being implemented to replace the hardwired network. Plugging into a network port is still going to be faster and more reliable, but wireless networks can provide a convenient way to access information where wired connections are not available.
