Abstract— In order to provide reliable connections across metropolitan and wide-area optical networks, the network operator must provide some degree of redundancy so that traffic...
Abstract—It is expected that GMPLS-based recovery could become a viable option for obtaining faster restoration than layer 3 rerouting. Even though dedicated restoration ensures ...
Many interesting applications using mobile ad-hoc networks are possible if quality-of-service (QoS) can be effectively supported. Towards that end, this paper proposes a method ba...
We propose hierarchically distributed path computation elements (HDPCEs) that manage a multilayered GMPLS network and provide traffic engineering paths for end-to-end routes. We ap...
More and more Quality of Service (QoS) sensitive applications, such as streaming media, high bandwidth content distribution and VoIP, will be deployed in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (M...
