— After identifying that current GMPLS specifications only allow for the implementation of a call blocking mode of operation that handles immediate-request calls (not book-ahead...
This paper addresses the routing problem in packet switching free-space optical (FSO) mesh networks. FSO mesh networks are emerging as broadband communication networks because of ...
Traffic burstiness has a significant impact on network performance. Burstiness can cause buffer overflows and packet drops and is particularly problematic in the context of small-b...
