No Small Parts: The Role of Scale Models in Theater Set Design Opens at The Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures on September 18, 2012

Tucson, AZ (PRWEB) July 12, 2012

No Small Parts features the works of talented local scene designers whose masterful maquettes were created for productions by Arizona Opera, the University of Arizona School of Musics Opera Theater, the University of Arizona School of Theater, Film and Television and Arizona Theater Company.

A scene designer must interpret the script under the guidance of the director and define that world as it will appear on the stage. To be tasked with representing fearsome forces of nature or conveying deeply wrought emotions with little more than light and a few well placed scenic elements are creative challenges that can best be reworked and resolved in miniature. says The Mini Time Machine Museum Executive Director, Nina Daldrup. This exhibit will allow the viewer a glimpse of the artistic problem solving that happens behind the scenes.

In addition to full-color scale models, this exhibit will also include the designers scale drawings, white models and theatrical production photographs, illustrating the progressive phases of set design and the final outcome of the process in full scale on the stage. The work of scene designers Sally Day and Clare Rowe will be featured, among others.

Compact, High-Capacity Links for Less than $2,000 Key to Success of Small Cells


Seattle,WA (PRWEB) June 14, 2012

Backhaul is crucial to the LTE small-cell business case. Traditional macro-cellular networks are unable to cope with rapid growth in traffic loads and are increasingly congested. Mobile operators agree that in dense urban areas small cells in heterogeneous networks (HetNet) can provide the capacity they need to meet the expectations of their smartphone, tablet and laptop data subscribers.

Yet without high-capacity, ultra-compact, low-cost backhaul to transport this traffic, the small-cell market will struggle to grow, according to a new report from Senza Fili, Backhaul for small cells. Finding the right cost/performance tradeoffs to meet the backhaul challenge.

Backhaul for small cells requires more than just re-purposing existing backhaul solutions. This is a new market for backhaul vendors a big opportunity but also a big challenge as they strive to meet a very different set of requirements from what they are used to in the macro-cellular environment. says Monica Paolini, the reports author. Backhaul products for small cells are not only required to be smaller and cheaper, but they have to operate in more challenging RF environments.

No single solution will suffice, and operators will need to combine line-of-sight (LOS) and non-LOS (NLOS) technologies in their networks to provide the right mix of coverage and capacity, and to support a sustainable and scalable business case. Per-link costs of $ 2,000 with high capacity and extremely compact form factors are needed to close the business case, for both sub-6 GHz licensed and millimeter wave (60 GHz and e-band) spectrum the two bands expected to dominate the small-cell backhaul market.

Based on a financial/TCO model and an extensive set of interviews with mobile operators and vendors, the report examines the tradeoffs in cost and performance that mobile operators face when choosing between LOS and NLOS options, between licensed and license-exempt spectrum, or between point-to-point (PTP) and point-to-multipoint (PMP) architectures, and provides an in-depth review of backhaul vendors plans to provide innovative solutions to this emerging market.

Among the findings of the report:

1. Fiber will be crucial to the success of small cells, but will be mostly used in aggregation points. At a $ 2,500/year lease price, fiber becomes more cost-effective than wireless. But in most markets lease prices are higher than this, and wireless backhaul is expected to be prevalent.

2. Backhaul costs for small-cells account for approximately twice as much of the TCO as they do in the macro-cell layer. This is why backhaul has become a major focus point for mobile operators planning small-cell networks.

3. Integrating backhaul within the small-cell enclosure allows operators to install one piece of equipment instead of two at the small-cell site, and allows operator to reduce their TCO by up to 27%. But it also reduces their flexibility in selecting solutions and vendors.

4. Backhaul sharing among operators is another way to keep small-cell costs down, allowing operators to save up to 20% of their TCO.

The report is available at http://www.senzafiliconsulting.com

Vendors mentioned in the report include Airspan, Alcatel-Lucent, Aviat, BLiNQ, Bluwan, BridgeWave, Cambridge Broadband Networks, Ceragon, DesignArt, Dragonwave, E-Band, Ericsson, Huawei, Intracom, NEC, Nokia-Siemens, Powerwave, Ruckus Wireless, Siklu, Skyfiber, Sub10, Taqua, Ubiquiti.
