In an integrated services network, resources are shared by multiple traffic classes. Service classes that deliver guaranteed Quality-ofService (QoS) to applications have priority ...
High efficiency in capacity utilization and fast restoration are two primary goals of survivable design in optical networks. Shared backup path protection has been shown to be effi...
Several architectures have been recently proposed to support IP mobility. Most studies, however, show that current protocols, in general, fall short from satisfying the performanc...
