In this paper, we describe the middleware that has evolved from our attempt to capture user descriptions of policies controlling devices and services from natural language. Descri...

— This paper proposes optical wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) networks with limited wavelength conversion that can efficiently support lightpaths (connections) between nod...
We introduce a traffic model for circuit-switched all-optical networks which we then use to calculate the blocking probability along a path for networks with and without wavelength...
—The prospects of Optical Burst Switching (OBS) as a cost-effective switching paradigm for future all-optical transport networks would greatly benefit from minimizing the number ...
We study the upgrading problem of existing Passive Optical Networks (PONs) that need to increase their capacity at different points in time. Our method upgrades line rates and migr...
