As the world continues its migration from an environment of directly linked devices to networked devices, it is important to consider how this will impact the underlying communication system. It is not enough to simply plug a device into a network, decoupling it from its original host, without understanding the implications of such a change. Specifically, there are a number of different performance considerations, which must be understood in order to guarantee an error free system. In a previous paper one aspect of this performance is discussed, and focused the analysis in understanding, analyzing and overcoming the latency barriers that are encountered when establishing a network. This paper will expand the discussion of performance characteristics beyond latency, and look closely at a number of additional factors.
