When a switching network topology is used for constructing optical cross-connects, as in the circuit switching case, no two routes are allowed to share a link. However, if two rou...
— Networks employ link protection to achieve fast recovery from link failures. While the first link failure can be protected using link protection, there are several alternative...
Simulation and Emulation techniques are fundamental to aid the process of large-scale protocol design and network operations. However, the results from these techniques are often ...

— This paper presents new lower and upper bounds for the compression rate of binary prefix codes optimized over memoryless sources according to various nonlinear codeword length...
Abstract— In this paper, we study the problem of exact emulation of two types of optical queues: (i) N-to-1 output-buffered multiplexers with variable length bursts, and (ii) N ...
