: In this paper, we investigate the problem of routing lightpaths on an arbitrary physical topology following a Design Protection approach, such that virtual topology remains conne...
—It is investigated to what extent the trajectories of a stochastically switched (blinking) system follow the corresponding trajectories of the averaged system. Four cases have t...
We propose an explicit rate indication scheme for congestion avoidance in ATM networks. In this scheme, the network switches monitor their load on each link, determining a load fac...
A combined input and crosspoint queued (CICQ) switch with a flow control latency of round-trip time (RTT) packets requires each crosspoint (CP) buffer to hold the RTT packets in o...
searchers are now invited to submit abstracts on one or more of the following topics: • Control plane mechanisms, e.g. circuit reservation • Network protocols research, e.g. DC...
