— This paper deals with the performance modeling of the various MAC states as defined by the cdma2000 protocol. Our method uses a composite performance metric which has the capa...
—A novel scheme for processing packets in a router is presented that provides load sharing among multiple network processors distributed within the router. It is complemented by ...
- This paper describes new optical switching architectures supporting asynchronous variable-length packets. Output line contention is resolved by optical delay line buffers. By int...
Abstract—Interactive TCP applications, such as Telnet and the Web, are particularly sensitive to network congestion. Indeed, congestion-induced queuing and packet loss can be a s...
The concept of Automatically Switched Transport Networks (ASTN) combines elements of distributed connection management from the IP world with classical transport network functiona...
