Abstract— The Optical Burst Switching (OBS) paradigm proposes a new set of transmission protocols and network architectures that permits the high-utilization of the raw bandwidth...
In this article we investigate the effects of increased Control Packet lead Time (CPT) on the loss probability of bursts in an OBS network with deflection routing. In particular w...
– Optical burst switching (OBS) is a promising technique for next-generation optical switching networks. In traditional OBS, an entire burst is discarded when all output waveleng...
This paper studies the important fault management issue with focus on the fast restoration mechanisms for Optical Burst Switched (OBS) networks. In order to reduce the burst losse...
The performance of an optical switch that handles contention resolution using a fiber delay line (FDL) is modeled and evaluated. We propose using a simple optical buffer that con...
