Abstract. In this paper we present an all-optical network architecture and a systolic routing protocol for it. The sparse optical torus network consists of an n×n torus, where pro...
Abstract Recent advances in optical switching technology allows for the creation of networks in which data bursts are switched optically at each node, offering a greater degree of...
A fundamental assumption underlying most studies of optical burst switched (OBS) networks is that full wavelength conversion is available throughout the network. In practice, howev...
Hybrid networks are networks capable of switching data at multiple levels (optical and IP packet level) by means of multi-service optical switches. As a result of that, huge flows...
Abstract--Energy-efficient optical networks are gaining momentum as environmental-friendly solutions with reduced operational costs. Energy-efficiency can be achieved by using devi...
