Abstract Recent advances in optical switching technology allows for the creation of networks in which data bursts are switched optically at each node, offering a greater degree of...
Transport Control Protocol (TCP) has served as a reliable, self-regulated, and congestion tolerant transport protocol for many Internet applications. Relatively, limited knowledge ...
—Optical burst switching (OBS) technology is a promising solution for the next generation Internet backbone. However, call admission control (CAC) and QoS support constitute crit...
WDM technology has increased network link capacity dramatically, moving the network bottleneck from the transport to the routing layer. Hybrid electro-optical architectures seem at...
Wireless Network Interface (WNI) is one of the most critical components for power efficiency in multimedia streaming to mobile devices. A common strategy to save power is to switc...
