— Optical Burst Switching (OBS) is an experimental network technology that enables the construction of very high capacity routers, using optical data paths and electronic control...
—Different physical impairments can occur in optical transmission systems. Impairments such as fiber nonlinear effects are dependent on network state and vary with traffic and to...

Multihop lightwave networks are a means of utilizing the large bandwidth of optical fibers. In these networks, each node has a fixed number of transmitters and receivers connected...
— We consider the path-determination problem in Internet core routers that distribute flows across alternate paths leading to the same destination. We assume that the remainder ...
Abstract— Aggregation of individual wavelengths into wavebands for their subsequent switching and routing as a single group is an attractive way for scalable and cost-efficient ...
