In the past two years, several papers have proposed rules that suggest two to five orders of magnitude reduction in Internet core router buffers. Others present scenarios where bu...
In multi-hop networks, packet schedulers at downstream nodes have an opportunity to make up for excessive latencies due to congestion at upstream nodes. Similarly, when packets inc...
This paper develops a new model that describes the queueing process of a communication network when data sources use window flow control. The model takes into account the burstines...

The construction of multicast trees is complicated by the need to balance a number of important objectives, including: minimizing latencies, minimizing depth/hops, and bounding th...
Abstract-- This paper addresses the problem of optical signalto-noise ratio (OSNR) optimization in optical networks. An analytical OSNR network model is developed for a general mul...
