— We present a detailed analysis of the loss performance in an optical buffer having access to a single outgoing channel. Such a system - consisting of a number of fiber delay li...
—In the past years, electronic routers have had trouble keeping up with the increase in optical fiber capacity. As their power consumption has grown exponentially and already ex...
Scalability considerations drive the switch fabric design to evolve from output queueing to input queueing and further to combined input and crosspoint queueing (CICQ). However, f...
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 ...
— Operators need routers to provide service guarantees such as guaranteed flow rates and fairness among flows, so as to support real-time traffic and traffic engineering. How...
