— This paper examines burst contention resolution problems in optical burst switching (OBS) networks. Since burst contentions take place i) when the network is congested by incre...
—Burst loss and delay are two main issues in optical hop-count. Network diameter is the hop-count of the shortest burst switching (OBS) networks. In OBS, if the hop-count path be...
Transport Control Protocol (TCP) has served as a reliable, self-regulated, and congestion tolerant transport protocol for many Internet applications. Relatively, limited knowledge ...
— 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...
