— Tools such as pathchar, clink, and pchar attempt to measure the capacity of every Layer-3 (L3) hop in a network path. These tools use the same underlying measurement methodolog...
In this paper, we discuss different signaling techniques for optical burst-switched networks. We develop a generalized signaling framework for optical burst-switched networks, whi...
WiFi interface is known to be a primary energy consumer in mobile devices, and idle listening (IL) is the dominant source of energy consumption in WiFi. Most existing protocols, s...
—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 paper examines the latency in Internet path failure, failover and repair due to the convergence properties of interdomain routing. Unlike switches in the public telephony net...
