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...
On-demand services are a key feature of Future Internet architectures. Already today research networks around the world provide dedicated optical circuits (lightpaths) to scientist...
Supporting WDM multicasting in an IP over WDM network poses interesting problems because some WDM switches may be incapable of switching an incoming signal to more than one output...

Abstract. The paper proposes a priority-aware MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol for a core metropolitan area network in the next generation Internet, which is an OPS (Optical Pa...
—In the paper, we study the wavelength assignment problem in waveband switching (WBS) networks, which is composed of multi-granular optical cross-connect (MG-OXCs) interconnected...
