—Time slot assignment is essential to provide the calculated bandwidth in a TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access)-based mobile ad hoc network (MANET), which is a focus of attentio...
We present a distributed protocol for maintaining a maximum flow spanning tree in a network, with a designated node as the root of the tree. This maximum flow spanning tree can be...
A novel method which can be regarded as the noisecounterpart of the celebrated Elmore’s delay formula— both being based on the first two moments of the network’s transfer fu...
In this paper, we present a new hybrid optical burst switch architecture (HOBS) that takes advantage of the pre-transmission idle time during lightpath establishment. In dynamic c...
: In this paper, we investigate the problem of routing lightpaths on an arbitrary physical topology following a Design Protection approach, such that virtual topology remains conne...
