Applications communicating over connectionless networks, such as IP, cannot obtain per-connection Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. In contrast, the connection-oriented nature ...
— In this work, we compare three optical transport network architectures: optical packet switching (OPS), optical flow switching (OFS), and optical burst switching (OBS). Our co...
