— Efficient network provisioning mechanisms that support service differentiation and automatic capacity dimensioning are essential to the realization of the Differentiated Servi...
— We present a distributed scheduling algorithm for provisioning of guaranteed link bandwidths in ad hoc mesh networks. The guaranteed link bandwidths are necessary to provide de...
: A light-trail is a generalized lightpath that enables multiple nodes to statistically share an optical communication path (wavelength bus). A light-trail is different from a ligh...
We advocate the notion of service overlay network (SON) as an effective means to address some of the issues, in particular, end-to-end QoS, plaguing the current Internet, and to f...
Multi-class network is becoming a more attractive solution to provide Quality-of-Service guarantee, as more quality-demanding applications are emerging. This research considers ne...
