Multicast is a central challenge for emerging multi-hop wireless architectures such as wireless mesh networks, because of its substantial cost in terms of bandwidth. In this artic...
—The rapid scaling up of Networked Control Systems (NCS) is forcing traditional single-hop shared medium industrial fieldbuses (a.k.a. fieldbuses) to evolve toward multi-hop sw...
—This paper proposes a new switching architecture to be used in all optical networks. The proposed switch, M-B-Quadro switch, is extended from an original 2 x 2 two-stage multi-b...
A new scalable optical network infrastructure SMART is proposed based on light-trails and hypernetwork architecture. The underlying physical network of SMART is a reconfigurable WD...
All-optical packet switching is a promising candidate for future high-speed switching. However, due to the absence of optical Random Access Memory, the traditional Virtual Output ...
