Traffic burstiness has a significant impact on network performance. Burstiness can cause buffer overflows and packet drops and is particularly problematic in the context of small-b...
There has been much discussion about the best way to combine the benefits of new optical circuit switching technology with the established packet switched Internet. In this paper,...
Data-intensive applications that operate on large volumes of data have motivated a fresh look at the design of data center networks. The first wave of proposals focused on designi...
