关于客户
波尔图大学工程学院(FEUP)是葡萄牙工程教学机构,隶属于波尔图大学。它提供各种工程学科的本科和研究生课程。 FEUP 致力于为学生提供最高标准的教育,重点关注先进方法和最新技术。它符合博洛尼亚宣言所要求的严格质量标准,与欧洲最好的大学相比毫不逊色。自 2005 年以来,FEUP 一直在探索技术方案,以增加其互联网访问带宽,同时保持甚至提高安全性。工程学院需要大量带宽,并且需要一种支持快速、安全数据传输的解决方案,这是开展国际项目的研究人员的关键先决条件。
挑战
波尔图大学工程学院 (FEUP) 面临着一项重大挑战,即如何增加其额定为 1Gbps 的互联网访问带宽,同时保持甚至增强安全性。工程学院需要一种能够支持快速、安全的数据传输的解决方案,这是参与国际项目的研究人员的关键要求。现有的问题是高安全级别导致速度急剧下降。因此,需要一种能够满足用户对速度的需求,同时保持足够的保护级别的解决方案。该解决方案必须加速数据包传输,同时处理网络攻击和其他安全问题。这需要提高数据包分析和处理能力,以维持必要的性能和安全级别。最重大的挑战是找到一种解决方案,可以控制市场上出现的新动态协议,确保业务连续性不中断,并在对用户透明的同时保持安全性。
解决方案
Check Point 为 FEUP 部署了多种解决方案。第一个是 ClusterXL,它在冗余网关集群之间分配流量,结合多台机器的计算能力来加速总吞吐量。如果网关无法访问,所有连接都会重定向到指定的备份,而不会中断。接下来,部署了 SecureXL,它通过将简单但计算密集型的功能卸载给第三方数据包处理器来加速防火墙和 VPN 网关的性能。然而,这些解决方案并没有解决 FEUP 的所有带宽问题,因为应用程序使用特定协议,需要不断分析,从而产生管理开销并显着降低吞吐量。为了缓解这个问题,Check Point 引入了一项名为 CoreXL 的新技术。该技术与 VPN-1 Power 集成,并在 Intel 多核处理器上采用,可加速网络安全扫描。 CoreXL 平衡了核心之间的数据流量,将高 KB 数据包分散到系统上的其他核心,通过将负载分布到多个处理器上,显着提高了检查数据包的处理能力。

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Major Aerospace Company Automates Asset Management
The O&M division of an aerospace and global security company was using spreadsheets to manually track more than 3,000 assets assigned to students and staff. Maintaining audit trails for this high volume of equipment became increasingly time-consuming and challenging. The chore involved knowing precisely what equipment was on hand, what had been issued, its location and the name of the custodial owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried out by individuals with spreadsheets. Manually documenting the full lifecycle of each asset added to the burden. This included tracking maintenance requirements and records, incidents and damages, repairs, calibrations, depreciation, and end-of-life data.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.
