Failure resilience is a desired feature of the Internet. Most traditional restoration architectures assume single-failure assumption, which is not adequate in present day WDM opti...
The significance of high-performance dedicated networks has been well recognized due to the rapidly increasing number of large-scale applications that require high-speed data tran...
—Superpeer architectures exploit the heterogeneity of nodes in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network by assigning additional responsibilities to higher capacity nodes. In the design of a ...
