One is the enormous demand, created by the rise of personal computing and flexible automation, for large-scale networking infrastructure and for systems architectures capable of accommodating them.
Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications is a new and rapidly developing technology for large-scale networking of devices without dependence on human interaction.
And Mr. Oliner and Mr. Sichel now find that computers -- both the manufacture of them and their use, particularly the large-scale networking of computers since 1995 -- are making a measurable contribution.
This chapter examines the characteristics of the typical enterprise network that presents special challenges and opportunities, as well as the ISA features that make it appropriate for this type of large-scale networking.
The company's leaders include people with executive experience at the software virtualization company VMware, the networking equipment giant Juniper, and Nicira, a networking startup acquired by VMware for $1.2 billion in 2012 after pioneering a new approach to large-scale networking (see "A New Net").
3Com already exited the large-scale networking business about a year ago, and it hasn't officially said it's considering phasing out other businesses.
In a large scale virtual networking environment in which many InPs offer virtualized resources for lease, such approach may introduce complexity and result in excessive delays and communication overhead between a VNP and a large number of potential InP candidates – thus impacting the overall efficiency of the VN embedding process.

Large scale analyses of social networking sites instead reported no homophily for messages posted on one another's profile in MySpace [51], and only a neglectable effect of homophily on the Facebook friendship graph [52].
Systems of systems: This effort focuses on modeling and design of large scale systems, those that include networking, database, grid computing, and information subsystems.
