Conventional packet-switched on-chip routers provide good resource sharing while minimizing latencies through various techniques. A virtual channel (VC) is allocated on a per-pack...
As third generation (3G) wireless networks with high data rate get widely deployed, optimizing TCP performance over these networks would have a broad and significant impact on data...
: A new proposal for an optical packet-routed network based on a distributed router architecture in a WDM network is described. Buffering, scheduling and wavelength assignment func...
Keeping router buffering low helps minimise delay (as well as keeping router costs low), whilst increasing buffering minimises loss. This is a trade-off for which there is no sing...
-- Internet routers and Ethernet switches contain packet buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. Packet buffers are at the heart of every packet switch and router, whic...
