What are Koala and Panda?
The next generation EVO system software includes a Client (named Koala) that runs on the users client machine and is part of the software infrastructure, and a Server (named Panda) that is used to provide an intelligent, secure and reliable communication channel between the different entities in the system, and some other services (scheduler, directory services, etc.). Together they provide: support for both pre-booked and immediate (ad-hoc) point-to-point and multipoint collaborative sessions initiated through Instant Messaging. The videoconferencing is “adoptive” in that the size and numbers of windows are varied automatically if the CPU load on the end-system exceeds a pre-set limit, or if the bandwidth required to sustain the video stream exceeds what is measured to be available. • What is the difference between VRVS and EVO?
