Abstract--All-optical multicast routing (AOMR) is implemented by the concept of light-tree in WDM networks. The costoptimal multicast light-tree is NP-hard to compute, especially w...
— There are two fundamental technology issues that challenge the robustness of IP backbones. First, SONET protection is gradually being removed because of its high cost (while SO...
1 Scalable resource monitoring and discovery are essential to the planet-scale infrastructures such as Grids and PlanetLab. This paper proposes a scalable Grid monitoring architect...
—Burst loss and delay are two main issues in optical hop-count. Network diameter is the hop-count of the shortest burst switching (OBS) networks. In OBS, if the hop-count path be...
This article addresses the ubiquitous topic of Quality of Service (QoS) aware connection provisioning in wavelength routed WDM optical networks. The impact of the connection setup...
