— This paper examines burst contention resolution problems in optical burst switching (OBS) networks. Since burst contentions take place i) when the network is congested by incre...
All optical switching has been proposed as a candidate to allow high capacity networking in the future. Currently, Optical Circuit Switching has been widely deployed, although thi...

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...
This paper concerns itself with the performance of deflection routing in optical burst-switched networks based on Just-Enough-Time (JET) signaling. Generally speaking, buffer requi...
— In this paper, we discuss for the first time the issue of supporting manycasting service over optical burstswitched (OBS) networks. One of the primary challenges in providing ...
