Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switches based on shared buffering are known to have better performance and buffer utilization than input or output queued switches. Shared buffer...
—With recent advances in optical technology, we are closer to building all-optical routers than ever before. A major problem in this area, however, is the lack of all-optical mem...
To support the Internet's explosive growth and expansion into a true integrated services network, there is a need for cost-effective switching technologies that can simultaneo...
A strong candidate for the future Internet core is optical packet-switched (OPS) network. In this paper, we study the impact of mechanisms as employed in OPS networks on the perfo...
One of the main problems in all-optical packet-switched networks is the lack of optical buffers, and one feasible technology for the constructions of optical buffers is to use opt...
