A performance model is presented for an optical packet switch architecture in which the wavelength converters are shared per output link and each output link consists of multiple ...

We consider wireless multihop data networks with random multi-access mechanisms at the MAC layer. In general, our aim is to study the performance as perceived by users in a dynamic...
Cluster-based and iSCSI-based storage systems rely on standard TCP/IP-over-Ethernet for client access to data. Unfortunately, when data is striped over multiple networked storage ...
In this article, we present a novel discrete-time Markov chain model of book-ahead bandwidthsharing mechanisms. We use this analytical model and a simulation model to understand t...
We consider a wireless ad-hoc network with random ALOHA transmissions between nodes. However nodes can decide to use the Request-to-Send (RTS) / Clear-to-Send (CTS) protocol for oc...
