: The lack of a unified control plane does not allow current optical networks to dynamically provision new optical paths. The IETF standardization body has proposed the Generalized...
— In this paper, we present a new hybrid switching architecture, termed as SLIP-IN, that combines electronic packet/burst with optical circuit switching. SLIP-IN architecture tak...
This paper defines a new layered architecture for supporting optical burst switching in an optical core network. The architecture takes into account both the control plane as well...

One of the difficulties of optical packet switched networks is buffering optical packets in the network. Currently, one solution that can be used for buffering in the optical dom...
: A new proposal for an optical packet-routed network based on a distributed router architecture in a WDM network is described. Buffering, scheduling and wavelength assignment func...
