What's Interesting? Top 10 Posts for 2011

 

The table below shows the Broadband Traffic Management blog's 10 most read posts during 2011, based on Google Analytics (which is not perfect, but surly indicative). The list is ranked by number of page-views, normalized to 100 points for the top item. It does not include top bar Pages  (the PCRF-DPI matrix would have been ranked first with 624 points) and posts from 2010.

No doubt - the most interesting posts are about M&As or IPO. Interesting entries are #5 covering, with some exclusive information, Amdocs' PCRF (since then Amdocs acquired Bridgewater); #8, a guest post by Acme Packet (since then they renamed the product to Diameter signaling controller) and #10, an overview of 3GPP's TDF facility.
